MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
LUBRICATION
The two main Jubrication points of the BaH Release_ mechanism are the pivots for the arm. The
mechanisms of other playfield devices are somewhat similar to the Ball Release device, and have the same
lubrication requirements.
A medium viscosity oil (switoh target grease) is satisfactory for these devices.
Because of the functional design (arm-actuated via solenoid plunger operation), the pivot points of the
Left and Right Kickers (""Slingshots") all require lubrication as a regular servIcing procedure.
Lubrication to ensure proper operation also applies to the target blades of the Drop Targets.
MBI
Instrument Grease, also known as Drop Target Switch Lubricant, with
a
Wllllams' part number of
8165.
is a
recommended lubricant.
SWITCH CONTACTS
Playfleld Swit ches
For proper game operation, switch contacts should be free of dust, dirt, contamination, and corrosion.
Blade
swltch
contacts
are
plated to resist corrosion.
Cleaning blade switch contacts requires gentle
closing of the contacts on a clean business card or piece ot paper, and lnen gulling the paper about 2
inches, which
should
restore the clean contact surface. Adjusllhe switch oontacts
to a 1/16-inch
gap.
FlIpper
Switch es
This game uses the new Fliptroni_c II Electronic Flipper System.
The End-at-Stroke switches are
NORMALLY OPEN. The switch should close wilen the llipper Is energized.
All E.O.S. switches and
flipper button cabinet switches are gold flashed computer grade leaf switches. Only low computer current
is carried through these switches. DO NOT FILE or abrasively clean these switcheS! 00 NOT REPLACE
mese
switches with the old style tungsten high current type switches as intermitent
operation could
•
occur. Note: Unlike the old style of flipper, an E.O.S. switch failure does not harm the flipper. The game
notifies the operator of the switch being rnls-adlusted in the test report, but continues to play. The E.O.S.
switches are a means by
Which
the new electronic IUppers'feel and play with all ot the subtleties of the old
flippers.
CLEANING
Good game action and extended playfield life are the results of regular playfield cleaning. Outing each
collection slop, the playfield glass should be removed and thoroughly cleaned and the playfield should be
wiped off with a clean, lint-free oloth. The game balls should be cleaned and inspected for any chips,
nicks, or pits. Replace any damaged balls to prevent playfield damage.
Regular, more extenslve, playfleld cleaning Is recommended.
However, avoid excessive use of water and
caustic or abrasive cleaners because they tend to damage the playfield surface.
Playfield wax (or any
carnauba based wax), or polish may be used sparingly, to prevent a buildup on the playfield surface. Do
not use cleaners containing petroleum distillates on any playfield plasUcs because they may dissolve
the
plastic material or damage the artwork.
