Quoted from TheLaw:It has a setting in the menu to increase the power. It should be sending it to the left flipper.
Welcome to the club
Quoted from PtownPin:I had to bend the metal guide a little so that when the scoop ejects it hits the left flipper (as its supposed to do).....works perfectly now
Quoted from Jediturtle:Adjust the scoop first...that should take care of 90% of the problem. Take off the plastic above it, loosen the screws holding the back of the scoop, and you will see that there is plenty of "twist" adjustment. It will likely have to move counterclockwise closer to the metal lane guide. You want to the ball shooting out as parallel as possible so it follows the guide.
When I did this it made a huge difference, but would still SDTM once in awhile. I then dropped the stand-up target at the front of the lane guide which gave me plenty of room to bend the end of the guide slightly left. An adjustable wrench with the jaws covered in electrical tape to protect the edge works great for this. It didn't take much and now the feed is 100% to the left flipper as it should be. (Don't forget to reinstall the stand-up target! )
Thanks gang, will give these a try! Also, any suggestions on a good video tutorial for beginners would be much appreciated!

Which setting? is the scoop referred to as the "right eject"?
