Safety Notices
The following safety instructions apply to all game operators and service personnel. Specific warnings
and cautions will
be found throughout this manual where they apply. We recommend that you read this
page before preparing your game for play.
l&lcAUTION
ISOLATION TRANSFORMER. This video game system does not utilize an isolation
transformer. No isolation exists between the cabinet
AC system and the external AC line.
AC POWER CONNECTION. Verify the slide switch on the power supply is set for 11 OVAC or
220VAC according to local line voltage. Verify that the fluorescent lamp assembly is correct for
local line voltage.
PROPERLY GROUND THE GAME. To avoid electrical shocks, do not plug in the game until it
has been inspected and properly grounded. This game should only be plugged into a grounded
3-wire outlet. Shocks may also result, if the control panel is not properly grounded! After
servicing any parts
on the panel, be sure that the ground wires are secure. Only then should you
lock up the game.
DISCONNECT POWER DURING REPAIRS. To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the game
from the AC power source before removing or repairing any part of the game.
USE THE PROPER FUSE. To avoid electrical shock, use the replacement fuse which is
specified in the parts list for this game. The replacement fuse must match the original fuse in
fuse type, voltage rating, and current rating.
HANDLE FLUORESCENT TUBE AND CRT WITH CARE. If you drop a fluorescent tube or CRT
and it breaks, it will implode! Shattered glass can fly eight feet or more from the implosion.
ATTENTION!
PROPERLY ATTACH ALL CONNECTORS. Make sure that the connectors on each printed circuit
board (PCB) are properly connected.
If the connectors do not slip on easily, do not force them. A
reversed connector may damage your game and void
the warranty. All connectors are keyed to fit
specific pins on each board. EPILEPSY WARNING
A very small portion of the population has a condition which may cause them to experience
epileptic seizures or have momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of
flashing lights or patterns that are commonly present in our daily environment. These persons
may experience seizures while watching
some kinds of television pictures or playing certain
video games. People who have not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an
undetected epileptic condition.
If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition (e.g.
seizure
or loss of awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any video games.
We recommend that parents observe their children while they play video games. If you or your
child experience any of the following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle
twitching, involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disorientation, or convolutions,
DISCONTINUE
USE IMMEDIATELY and consult your physician.

for any signs of damage.
2. Remove keys from the hook attached to the left inside cabinet. Unlock and open the coin and
cash box doors. (Leg levelers and spare parts are stored in the cash box).
3. Tilt or lay the cabinet down. Locate the four threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet (one in
each corner) and install one leg leveler (with its hex nut) in each hole.
4. Stand the cabinet upright and make certain that it is in a stable position. Level the cabinet.
5. Remove the rear door of the cabinet. Inspect the interior for any signs of damage. Check all
major assemblies to assure that they are mounted securely.
6. Refer to the games Cabinet Wiring Diagram (section 3), to assure that all cable connectors are
correctly secured. DO NOT FORCE CONNECTIONS. Watch for damaged connectors and
avoid making reversed connections.
7. To secure the rear door with a padlock. remove the two nuts from inside the cabinet, above the
rear door opening. The hasp is located in the spare parts bag. Slide the hasp on the bolts so
that it protrudes from the hole in back of the cabinet. Replace the nuts.

8. Install the control panel assembly:
Be sure the game is unplugged and the coin door is open.
Remove all packaging from the control panel assembly.
Open the control panel by unhooking the two latches inside the housing. Pivot the control panel
up onto its hinges.
Place the control panel assembly on the cabinet so the bolt holes in the cabinet line up the bolt
holes
in the assembly. Secure the assembly to the cabinet with four %-20 X 2" bolts and four
large flat washers (located in the spare parts bag).
Plug the control panel cable connectors into the appropriate cabinet cable connectors. Be sure
to match up the wire colors when you plug the connectors into each other. (See the Cabinet
Wiring Diagram
in Section 3 of the game manual.) DO NOT FORCE THE CABLE
CONNECTORS.
Attach the ground strap from the cabinet under wing nut.
Lower the control panel and reach through the coin door
to close the latches on the left and right
sides of the assembly.
9. Install the line cord.
Remove rear door and line cord cover plate.
Route line cord through hole in cabinet.
Insert line cord l.E.C. connector into mating receptacle on Power Chassis.
Mount line cord cover, taking care to align line cord with opening
in cover.

10. Connect the line cord to a grounded (3-terminal) AC wall outlet.
11. Switch ON the game using the ON/OFF switch located on the upper left rear of the cabinet.
12. Once your game
is operational, open the coin door and press the Test Switch. Perform the
Switch test (see Menu System Operation in Section 1 of the game manual) to be sure all buttons
and joysticks are working properly. If they don't, a cable might be connected wrong.
13. To check the cables, turn Off and unplug the game. Reach through the coin door, undo the
latches and tilt the control panel forward until it rests on its support brackets. Recheck the cable
connections.
14. Once you are sure the connections are correct, close and latch the control panel. Close and lock
the coin door. Plug the game in and turn it On. All buttons and joysticks should function
normally.
NOTICE: Velcro is provided on the side of the cabinet, as well as on control panel housing to allow the
operator to relocate the Remote Control Board from the cabinet to control panel housing, if
so desired.
This makes monitor adjustments easier.

Servicing
• Control Panel
The control panel is held in place by two latches (located inside the cabinet, on the left and right
sides of the control panel) which provide constant pressure
on the strikes. The latches can be
reached through the coin door opening. To release the latches, lift the latch handle and unhook the
wire fasteners. Using the side edges, carefully lift the control panel and tilt it forward until it rests
on
its support hinges. To reinstall the control panel, check for proper cable connections, including the
ground strap. Lower it into position, avoiding pinched wires. Re-clamp the latches.
• Remove Viewing Glass
Open the control panel. Loosen the three Phillips head screws that secure the back glass retaining
bracket, located at the bottom of the viewing glass. Lift the glass retaining bracket straight
up, away
from the cabinet. Carefully lift the viewing glass up and over the wooden lip, then slide the glass
down and out of the cabinet.
• Remove Monitor Bezel
Remove the viewing glass. Remove the bezel from its grooved edge.
• Monitor Replacement
Midway® recommends that you read the SAFETY NOTICES section (page 1-2) thoroughly before
beginning this procedure.
Switch OFF power to the game. Remove the viewing glass and the monitor bezel. Completely
disconnect the monitor from all of its cabling. Remove the four flange nuts securing the monitors
mounting flanges to its mounting panel. Pull the monitor carefully from the cabinet front.
&CAUTION The monitor DOES NOT require isolation from A.G. line.. However
when servicing the monitor on the test bench, it is a goodpractice
to use an isolation
transformer. Replace
the monitor with a Midway®authorized monitor.
The monitor is heavy. Be sure it is firmly supported if it must be removed from the
cabinet.
• Remove Marquee Glass
Remove the screws in the back plastic strip on top of the cabinet. Remove the strip and carefully lift
the glass. Store the glass carefully to prevent damage.
Remove the fluorescent lamp retainer brackets. Grasp the tube, give it a quarter turn and remove it
from its socket. Carefully place a new tube into the socket and turn
to reinstall.
WARNING
If a fluorescent tube drops and it breaks, it will implode!
Use care
in handling.
• Remove Fluorescent Light Assembly
Switch OFF power to the game. Remove the marquee glass (above). Disconnect the fluorescent
light assembly from its power cable. Remove the screws fastening the assembly
to the cabinet and
lift out the assembly.

• Remove Speakers
Switch OFF power to the game. Remove marquee glass. Remove the keps nuts which are
accessible through the marquee opening.
• Diagnostics Switches
