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 scratches.
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.
&
CAUTION
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, retum 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: It is recommended that these measurements 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. Adjust leg levelers to the desired playfield pitch (front to back) .. The recommended pitch level is
6 1/2
degrees.
CAUTION
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
6 1/2
degree angle. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen
screw at 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.
10. Move the game into the desired location; recheck the level and pitch angle of the playfield.
11. Verify that the
required number
of balls are installed in the game. JUDGE DREDD uses 9
balls, 6 active and 3 captive.
12. Install playfield mylars if desired.
NOTE:
JUDGE DREDD playfield is coated with a special hard coat surface and does not require
a full protective mylar. However, mylars can be purchased through your local Bally Distributor.
Specify part number 03-7960-20020-1 for full playfield mylar.
