4. Reach into the cabinet and backbox and ensure that the interconnecting cables are not kinked or
pinched. Be careful to avoid damaging wires at any stage of the assembly process.
5. Raise the hinged backbox upright and latch it into position. Unlock the backbox, and remove the
backglass, storing it carefully to avoid damage. Remove the shipping screws holding the Insert Panel.
Unlatch and open the Insert Panel. Carefully lift the Speaker Panel and lay it down on the playfield
glass. Be careful not to damage the Dot Matrix Display/Driver Board. This allows access to the bolt
holes used for securing the backbox upright. Install the washer-head mounting bolts through the
bottom holes of the backbox into the threaded fasteners in the cabinet to secure the backbox. Close
the Insert Panel and latch into position. Replace the Speaker Panel. Reinstall the backglass, and lock
the backbox.
ILhlcAUTION
FAILURE
TO
INSTALL
the backbox mounting hardware properly can cause personal injury.
NEVER TRANSPORT
a pinball game with the hinged backbox erect. Always lower the backbox
forward onto the playfield cabinet on a layer of protective material to prevent marring or damage and
possible personal injury.
6. Extend each leg leveler slightly below the leg bottom, so that all four foot pads protrude approximately
the same distance. Remove the cabinet from its support and place it on the floor.
7. Unlock and open the coin door. Move the molding latch lever toward the left side of the game, to
release the front molding. Lift the front molding off the playfield cover glass, return the latch lever to
the right, and close the coin door. Carefully slide the glass downward, until it clears the grooves of the
left and right side moldings. Lift the glass up and away from the game, storing it carefully to avoid
breakage.
8. Place a level or an inclinometer on the playfield surface. Adjust the leg levelers for proper playfield
level (side-to-side). NOTE: These measurements must be made ON the playfield, not the cabinet nor
the playfield cover glass. Tighten the nut on ,each leg leveler shaft to maintain this setting.
9. The TRU-PITCH™ level is located on the right shooter rail. This allows the playfield pitch angle to be
accurately adjusted WITHOUT REMOVING THE GLASS. The first line (closest to the front of the
game) on the level is approximately 6 degrees. Every line thereafter is approximately another
1/2
degree of pitch. The recommended pitch for Theatre of Magic is 6
1/2
degrees. The nose of the
bubble should be between the first and second line on the level (see diagram below).
TRU-PITCH1" level 6
1 /2
degrees.

Playfield pitch angle adjustments can affect the operation of the plumb bob tilt, inside the cabinet. The
plumb bob weight is among the parts in the cash box; the operator should install the weight and adjust
this tilt mechanism for proper operation, after completion of the desired playfield pitch angle setting.
The unit is factory installed for a

the bottom of the unit. Move the pointer. one groove at
a
time to the left or right, depending on the
degree desired. Hold pointer in place and tighten screw.
