Lateral force created by the hammer is a simple f=mv. Downward force is a function of gravity. Reduce the gravity and I'm pretty certain the machines would tip.
Analogously, if these were on the surface of Jupiter I'd imagine they wouldn't even tremble.

Wouldn't even STAND on Jupiter.

it's also gravity what accelerates the hammers. If dropped from the same position, they'll hit the board with less momentum.
