Always be sure power to the game is turned off when doing even routine maintenance. Otherwise,
moving parts could activate unexpectedly causing injury.
This product is heavy, necessitated by the design. When moving this game, be sure you have
adequate help. Use a suitable dolly or hand truck where practical. Use back support when needed.
SETUP

remove the rocking of the game.
2. Be sure to plug the game into the proper A.C. GROUNDED receptacle. Do not use long extension
cords unless absolutely necessary and if so, be sure it is a heavy duty cord of at least 16 Ga. and no
longer than 20 ft. Check the label on the back of the game to make sure the power requirements of

INSTRUCTION FOR PLAY
1. Insert a Coin/Token.
2. Press the PUSH TO START button and wait for the game to start.
3. Press the JUMP button to make the toy jump over the hoop.
4. If the Hoop touches the Toy, the game will end and play a GAME END sound. The player will
receive tickets based on their score.
Basic Game Functions:
POWER ON:
Game will perform a P.O.S.T. (Power On Self Test)
GAME START:
A player walks up to the game and inserts a coin/token into the coin slot. A sound will be heard so the
player knows the game accepted the coin/token. Now the PUSH TO START button will flash along
with the LED's in the background. When the player presses the PUSH TO START button, a sound will
give directions on how to play the game.
GAME PLAY:
The motor will rotate the hoop around the toy. When the player presses the JUMP button, the toy will
be lifted up about 1in via a pinball linear solenoid. The hoop will pass under the toy and the HOME
POSITIONING tab will break the IR sensor beam. This will initialize a point increase in the score. After
a predetermined amount of jumps (set by the options setting) the motor will then increase in speed
slightly. This will repeat until the player has touched the hoop with the toy.
GAME OVER:
When the player touches the hoop with the toy, the toy leans forward and a tab that is connected to
the right side of the hoop crosses another set of sensor pairs and triggers the end of the game
subroutine.
END GAME SUBROUTINE:
Once the player has touched the hoop, the toy will hold its position for 2 seconds and the game will
play a sound to encourage the player to play again. Then toy will lift upwards to allow the hoop pass
underneath it and the hoop will rotate until Its location tab has crossed the IR beam for the positioning
sensors. Once it has done this, the tickets will be paid out according to the score and the points per
ticket set.
RETURN TO STANDBY MODE:
After the game has completed it will return to STANDBY MODE. During STANDBY MODE, the game
will flash the LED's.
BALLY MODE (Option PA):
Depending on the settings in the option register, this mode will flash the attract lights, lift up the toy,
spin the hoop around the toy and play music. The options register for bally mode will set whether it’s
on or off and how often it turns on.

FREE CHANCE (Option P3):
Before the first 5 jumps, a player will receive a certain amount of free chances that are set in the
option settings. Once a player has used up, or went over 5 jumps, and hits the hoop, the game will
end. This helps a new player to understand how to play the game. This option (P3) is selectable from
1 - 5. We recommend setting this option to at least 3 minimum, with 4 being the BSR default setting.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

BOB’S SPACE RACERS®PUPPY JUMPTM ARCADE GAME MANUAL
13
Maintenance:
Due to the design of the machine, very little periodic maintenance is required.
Start the game and verify the correct operation before putting the game into everyday operations.
Clean the surface of the game as needed.
After about a month of game operation, check to be sure all parts are secure and in proper working
order.
1. Remove power before servicing game.
To avoid a short circuit, the power must be removed before touching the inside of the game.
2. Choose the appropriate replacement parts.
Using the wrong parts could lead to malfunction or damage to the game and components.
3. Do not substitute or change equipment, without authorization.
Doing so could lead to a short circuit and machine malfunction, or fire.
4. Do not put containers of water, cups or soda cans on the machine. In addition, chemicals
or heavy items should not be allowed around the game.
The spill could cause a short circuit. Falling items could injure people or destroy the machine.
Cleaning:
CLEANING - Clean the outer surfaces of the game with a commercial spray type cleaner. DO NOT
however, use glass cleaner or commercial sprays on the marquee graphic panel. Use a good quality
spray type furniture polish to keep the game looking good.

TROUBLESHOOTING PHILOSOPHY
When troubleshooting any product, certain general guidelines should be followed.
1. Always check to be sure that your game is turned on. Be sure that all of the fuses in the game are
functional and check to see that the AC voltage is in the proper operating range for your game.
2. Check to be sure that all of the game harnessing is plugged in properly and that all of the pins are
firmly seated in the connectors. It is always possible that a harness can be damaged by rough
shipping or moving.
3. Check game harnessing to be sure that none of the wires have become or are damaged. Using a
handheld multi-meter, check continuity of the wires to make sure they are not broken.
4. Check for obvious damage to the P.C. Boards or electrical components.
5. If you have multiple games or multiple parts on a game, change or exchange the parts and see if
the problem goes away or moves to another location. This way you can quickly eliminate certain parts
as being the problem with the game.
6. When changing electronic or electrical components, ALWAYS turn off and unplug the game.
7. Check to see that all power supplies are delivering the specified voltages to the P.C. Boards and
components as shown in the manual.
