IX. SWITCH ASSEMBLY ADJUSTMENTS:
GENERAL:
All switch assemblies consist of leaf springs, contacts, separators, plastic tubing and screws to hold them to the
I
mounting surface. Before attempting to adjust a switch assembly, make sure that these screws are tight. If not,
tighten screw closest to the contact end of the leaf spring first. This will prevent the assembly from being secured
in such a manner that the leaf springs tend to fan out. In general, all leaf springs are adjusted for a 1/16"
gap in the open position and
.010"
oveHravel or wipe in the closed position. All contacts should be in good
I
condition. Unless otherwise instructed, they should be dry or non-lubricated. All contacts should be free of dust
and dirt Contacts, with the exception of the flipper button switch assemblies are plated to resist corrosion.
Filing or burnishing breaks the finish and encourages corrosion. Clean by closing the contacts over a clean
I
piece of paper (e.g. a lint free business card) and wiping gently until the contacts are clean. For the flipper button
switch assemblies
ONLY:
Tarnish can be removed with a contact file followed by burnishing tool. Severely pitted
contacts must be placed and adjusted only when they are found to be a source of game malfunction.

Bally recommends you clean your playfleld with Wildcat #125 (Wildcat Chemical Co. 1349 East Seminary Drive;
Fort Worth, Texas 76115; Phone 1-817/924-8321). Wildcat #125 Is a combination cleaner'and polish. Bally has

tried and tested this product and found It to be very effective. If Wildcat #125 is not available, Bally suggests
you ask your distributor to order it. Inspect and hand polish the ball in a clean cloth. A chipped ball must
be replaced. It can ruin the finish on the playfield in a short period of time.
I

playfield, or allow a wax or polish build up. Waxes yellow with age and spoil appeal.
