1.1 Receipt Of Machine
Upon receipt of machine carefully remove all protective packaging and establish machine on a
flat and level floor. Take care to protect the machine from sudden shocks etc. when lifting or
manhandling.
The machine should only be situated indoors, and should not be subjected to any other
environments. Ensure all ventilation grills have at least 4" (100mm) clearance from other
surfaces to permit adequate cooling.
1.2 Electrical Connection
The Nascar machine should be connected to the mains supply via a suitable plug to suit your
installation requirements (Ref: Section 2.1). A competent trained person should always carry
this out. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Mains wiring: Live Black

Earth Green or Green/Yellow
THIS MACHINE MUST BE EARTHED/GROUNDED
1.3 Electrical Supply Entry
This machine electrical supply connects at the rear.
The On/Off switch for the machine is located in the right hand lower compartment.

1.5 Initial Operation
Connect the mains supply and switch ON (Ref: Section 1.3).
The Top-Sign and coin entry fluorescent lamps will light, the top sign Nascar lamps will
sequence.
The pusher boxes will start moving.
Each reel will align its datum and rotate to its starting position.
The hoppers will run to clear any stray coins. Please check for foreign objects before floating.
A short time latter the 'Attract' sound will operate depending on the switch settings on the Sound
Board. The volume level may be adjusted if required by means of a volume control fitted on the
Sound Board. This is located in the left hand lower cabinet on the central web.
Insert a coin in to the coin entry chute; a sound will be heard as the coin is accepted. The
corresponding section coin-in counter will increment and the player section will become active.
The game is now initiated and will remain so for approximately 20 seconds.
The anti abuse 'slam-tilt' alarm feature may be tested by thumping on a lower cabinet door. The
alarm should sound, and the top sign lights go out. The count hopper will run, diverting any
coins falling from the playfield into the cashbox. The count output from this hopper is ignored
during tilt conditions, thus no awards made. The operation of the tilt or slam tilt alarm stops all
games in progress and lasts approx 10 seconds.
A safety feature is incorporated which will stop the pusher drive motor should a jam or
restriction occur. Simply holding back an advancing pusher box may test this. To effect reset of
this feature, operate the reset switch located on the rear of the right hand cabinet.
2.1 Access To Machine
WARNING - DANGEROUS VOLTAGES EXIST WITHIN THIS MACHINE
Playfield
Release the lock at the top of the glass and hinge backward far enough to get a firm
handhold either side. Carefully lift clear of the machine and store safely.
Coin-Entry
Release the locks at the top of the door and hinge down.
Lower Cabinet
Release the locks, hinge outward, disconnect cables at connectors and lift clear.
Cashbox
Release the lock at the top, hinge outward, and lift clear. The cash box is located within.
Top-Sign
Release the lock on the rear door and lift clear.
From the front, the artwork panel may be unscrewed and removed.

3.1 The Game
Attract Mode
When not in active play, the machine lighting and pusher box mechanism operate continuously.
The attract tune is played at intervals dependant on the settings made on the Sound Board
Active Play Mode
When coins of the correct type are inserted into a coin entry chute they are detected by an optical
sensor activating that particular player section and then pass down the pin perspex to the
playfield. Coins of the incorrect type fall through the chute and are collected in the reject trays,
not activating the sensors.
Feature.
Coins passing down the trigger chutes trigger a spin. Correctly matching the halves of a car leads
to a bonus win, as shown by the amount in the flashing lit window on the artwork.
Winnings.
When the player section is active, coins pushed off the playfield are detected by a microphone
connected to the win chute, which in turn activates the count hopper. The coins are counted in to
the cash box, and the count processed to generate the award of redemption tickets. After coin
entry, a player section remains enabled for approximately 20 seconds, allowing the player the
full benefit from the effects of his coin.
Coins in and tickets out are recorded on separate electro-mechanical counters. It is
recommended that readings of these counters be taken regularly, to establish a clear pattern of
usage/profit and thus any significant deviations may highlight a fault condition requiring
attention.
3.2 Priming The Playfields With Coins.
Each player section requires approximately 750 coins, of which the first 650 may be hand placed
on the playfield. The final 100 for each section should be played in to the machine via the coin
entry slots in order to achieve the best possible visual appearance of the playfield area.
Remember to record the coin counter readings after priming for your records.

3.3 General Maintenance & Care
The Nascar is a robust and reliable machine, which looked after will give years of profitable
service. Regular cleaning is the key to optimum condition and performance.
To maintain all visible surfaces in an 'as new condition':
3. Plastic and Glass Fibre - use a general purpose (non aggressive) water based detergent and
finish with a quality furniture polish.
2. Laminated Cabinet trims - clean with an all purpose non-aggressive cleaner and finish to a
high gloss using a furniture polish.
3. Glass and Chrome - clean with a quality window cleaning solution.
Do not use caustic or abrasive cleaners. Always use cleaning products in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.
The machine utilises 'sealed for life' type bearings and a high quality mechanical components
that do not require regular greasing or regular servicing.
It is recommended an initial inspection be carried out after approximately two months usage, to
check for any signs of wear on the moving parts. Adjust as required, and thereafter inspect
annually.

4Electrical Systems
4.1 Circuit Breakers
Mains Supply Circuit Breaker
The Mains Supply is protected by a thermally operated circuit breaker, which can be
manually reset. This circuit breaker is rated at 5 Amps, and is located in a metal
enclosure together with the main supply switch, located in the right hand lower cabinet.
Should this device trip, firstly ascertain the cause of the fault and rectify. To reset the
device, simply depress the centre back in to the body of the circuit breaker.
Motor Fuse
The Motor fuse is located on the motor control PCB inside the 110v power box in the
right hand lower cabinet. This fuse is designed to protect the motor control circuitry and
must only be replaced with an identical item. Failure of this fuse would normally
indicate a motor fault.
Motor fuse 2 Amp (T) 20mm
(T) = Time Delay/Anti-Surge
Power Supplies
The machine power supply units and the dichroic transformer unit all have circuit
breakers fitted in the low voltage sides of the circuits. These circuit breakers are
physically mounted within the metal enclosures of these units, and the reset buttons are
easily accessible without opening the units.
Resetting these devices, having identified and rectified the fault condition, is simply a
case of pressing the white button back in to the body of the device. Since these are
thermally operated devices, a small ‘cooling down’ time may be required after tripping
before reset can be achieved.
