What is the best way to clean a pickleball machine?

We recommend using WD-40 for removing waxy buildup on a pickleball machine because it’s completely safe to use and won’t damage any of the internal components or wires in your device. It also has lubricating qualities which will help keep your lobster running smoothly after you’re done cleaning it.

You can apply the WD-40 directly to a rag and rub it over your machine until you’ve removed all of the waxy buildups, then wipe away any excess oil with another dry cloth or paper towel.

You should avoid using any kind of strong chemicals or abrasives as these can be harmful to your lobsters and the parts surrounding them.
