1) Position the box as shown in
the photo. Not surprisingly,

the top of the box. Remove the
lid…
2) …slide the corner protectors
up and remove them from the
box.
Assembly Instructions

Mar2018 Revision - 6 -
3) The box can then be lifted up.
Save the box for use as a
protective surface to avoid
scratching your All Star
Baseball unit as it is being
assembled.
So we are all in agreement on
the names of what’s in the
box….
You will need a 5/8” wrench
to assemble the unit
BACK BOX
PARTS BOX
LOWER
CABINET

Mar2018 Revision - 7 -
5) Remove the legs from the
parts box. Each leg should
have a leveler installed (if not,
install it at this time).
Make sure each leg leveler is
adjusted to its highest
position and screwed “all the
way in”.
6) While the Lower Cabinet is
still in the upright position,
install the two front legs using
two 5/8” leg bolts per leg.
The leg bolts can be found at
the corners of the Lower
Cabinet. Remove them,
install the legs, reinstall and
fully tighten the bolts.
7) Rotate the Lower Cabinet
into position; use the box top
as a pad to prevent
scratching back of the
cabinet…

Mar2018 Revision - 8 -
8) …and use the parts box to
prop up the cabinet so you
can install the rear legs. As
with the front legs, the leg
bolts will be found installed
in the cabinet. Remove the
bolts, secure the legs,
reinstall and fully tighten the
bolts.
You can now lift up the Lower
Cabinet, remove the parts
box, and let it sit on the legs.
9) Use the key found in the parts
box to remove the rear door
from the Back Box.
10) WITH ASSISTANCE,
place the Back Box atop the
Lower Cabinet and orient it
so the large rounded-
rectangle openings are
aligned. Use three mounting
bolts to secure the Back Box
in place.
The bolts thread into inserts
on either side of the opening,
and inside to the LEFT of the
base-runner mechanism
motor

Mar2018 Revision - 9 -
11) Connect the cables
from the Back Box to the
Lower Cabinet using the
color-coordinated markings
on each connection. Route
the cables so they do not
interfere with the base-
runner mechanism.
12) The CAT5 network
cable from the lower cabinet
should be connected to the
I/O Board as shown.

Mar2018 Revision - 10 -
13) To add the balls to the
unit, first open the coin door
and loosen the latch inside
the coin door that secures the
control panel
14) Lift the control panel
straight up, and then pivot the
upper portion toward you,
away from the cabinet.

Mar2018 Revision - 11 -
15) With the control panel
pivoted back, you can now
slide the game glass gently
towards you to open up a gap
at the top, just below the back
box.
16) Providing enough room
to gently place the balls onto
the playfield. Reverse the
process by sliding the game
glass back into place,
replacing the control panel,
and securing the clamp
inside the coin door that
holds the control panel in
place.

Mar2018 Revision - 12 -
17) Install the power cable
and plug in the unit into a
grounded, surge-protected
outlet. Turn on the power
switch located beneath the
right front corner of the
Lower Cabinet. If there are
no problems, you can
replace the rear door on the
back box.
