The ball that was in the game when I bought it is smaller and lighter than the 1 1/16" ball that the documentation says it should be. But the kicker that loads the ball to the shooter has a hard time getting the 1 1/16" up the ramp to load. Should I be using a smaller ball or start diagnosing the kicker that loads the ball? Pic of original ball attached.

Thanks

Kicker; Check sw. B on the Outhole relay and score motor sw 4C for cleanliness and solid contact.

That smaller ball looks like it belongs to ball roll tilt assembly at side of cabinet.

Check the switches as instructed, and clean the outhole kicker mechanism, maybe also replace coil sleeve. Make sure the kicker arm hits the ball in the middle, so it will not jump up and down when kicker operates.
