Quoted from bronco-jon:I agree about it should be straight, that's just how I found it when I bought the machine. if it was straight, the down bars would be the same length and the width of it is exactly the same width of the holes in the PF...I really don't think it needs it anyway. I can't imagine why a bar would be right behind a rubber anyway
Hi, my bar was missing when we first got the machine, and balls would quite frequently climb over the rubber, and get trapped where the bar should be! Hope this helps!
