DANGER ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Pinball machines have high voltages which can cause DANGER TO LIFE AND LIMB. TURN POWER OFF and UNPLUG PINBALL MACHINE prior to installation. Pinball machines are high voltage and can cause electrical shock.
SAFETY GLASSES are also recommended while working with or installing pinball parts.
Please follow these safety instructions as well as all installation instructions. Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to the pinball machine, accessory or other parts. Please see our Disclaimer for associated risks and responsibilities (Section 13 in our Terms of Service) prior to installation.
Images included in these instructions are of an installed prototype and may vary from your product slightly.
If you have questions or concerns regarding the proper installation of this part, please contact us for assistance.
When removing screws from the playfield, reinstall by first turning them counter-clockwise to match the original groove in order to respect the integrity of the playfield wood.
- Choose if you want to have the gates installed or not. If you choose to use the gates, glue them into position so that the bent out sections are facing front.
- Lift the playfield. Identify the Global Illumination light next to the drop target assembly. Remove the screw the finger is pointing to. Remove the LED set in the assembly and replace it with the matrix 44 JST dome we provide. Replace the assembly. It is a tight fit getting the wire in there too but it's possible. Try not to shear the wire.
- Lower the table and identify the drop target region next to the rising cross. There are 3 pieces of hardware (2 nuts and a screw) we need to remove.
- Gently bend up the acrylic. Be aware of the gate hinge rod, it sits above the acrylic. Manipulate the acrylic around the gate rod. We need to raise the acrylic enough to get our wiring through the screw holes above the optic assembly.
- We have 2 wiring harnesses. One is black and red wire that is long. The other is a heatshrunk assembly that is much shorter. Feed the longer on through the playfield hole under the optic sensor. The shorter set will get attached to the Matrix bulb we installed in step 2. Be sure the small reverser is connected to the bulb.
- Loosely position the cemetery above the holes in the acrylic that you have bent up. and pull any slack on the wires into the machine. The heatshrunk wire will run the length of the metal wall there and loop back to meet the bulb. The longer wire will get pulled through the table. I have identified the hole by the optic under the table. Pull in as much slack as you can but be gentle with it.
- Back to the top of the table, we will mount the Cemetery on the nut posts we removed in step 2. Be aware of any wiring that may try to rest in the lane or the drop target area. All of the wiring needs to be under the acrylic and between the ball guides ( the metal wall and the wireform, check step 4) Be aware of any wires that may be pinched as you are tightening the nuts. Also replace the single screw we removed. Don't forget about the gate hinge rod being in the way!
- Check the backside of the Cemetery to be sure no excess wires are hanging out into lanes.
- With the Cemetery firmly in place and no wires pinched or out of place, we will connect our final step. Under the table again we will identify the motor controlling the cross and the lights that run up the mechanism. Disconnect the molex connectors with the brown and red wires and insert the 3-pin minifit jumper we provided. Then find the very long JST extender you fished through the optic hole. Pair the 2 JSTs.
- Let's tidy up these wires so they don't get bound up in the mechanism and shear. Using the zip ties anchor a bit of wire on the switch wires for the cross as well as near one of the molexs. Take up the slack and coil it over itself and zip tie it to itself. Snip the zip tie lengths.
