© BF-WATCH TV 2021 © BF-WATCH TV 2021 The訂閱 morally unsubscribed number. Hey everybody, this is Zach from Flip N Out Pinball, your pinball distributor. Congratulations on the purchase of your brand new Star Wars The Pin pinball machine by Sturm Pinball. Now this device is perfect for the game room, the recreation room, the waiting room, the office break room, you name it. It's different than a commercial device pinball machine in some ways, but you get everything you need in a fully functional pinball machine at more savings. So we're going to walk you through the unboxing and setup process as well as maintenance and some gameplay of your brand new Star Wars pin. Congratulations. So as we're seeing now, I'm unboxing the top, taking all of the packaging out. That's the front of your pinball machine. Taking a box cutter, you're going to cut the sides of the box. You'll see on the box it says truck this side only. It's only going to say that on one side. That is the bottom of the pinball machine. As I'm cutting the sides here, I'm going to fold that flap down to expose the bottom of that pinball machine. These things are shipped vertically. Okay, now we can see the bottom of the pinball machine. There are going to be some legs stored to the left and right of that pinball machine. We'll see that here in a second. Another look at the bottom of the cabinet. There are those legs. Taking those out they are very much traditional pinball legs that you're going to find on any commercial device. What I'm doing now is on the front two legs, the leg levelers are going to be all the way flat. you see me raising these up a bit. It's a preference thing but if you raise those up just about maybe a quarter inch to a half an inch you'll have more slope to the pinball machine. Here I am unscrewing the bolts that are going to be used to fasten the legs. A 5 8 socket is what you're going to use. Assembling the one of the front legs, the front left. Hand tighten it, support it with your other arm as you're screwing those in. Then you're going to use your 5-8 socket to tighten the rest of the way, alternating left and right, up and down. There you go. So that you can evenly distribute the pressure on those bolts You don want to go too hard just nice and snug usually a good rule of thumb is using one hand to tighten it Here I am taking the bolts off the right side Since this is not a commercial device you're going to see on the coin door no coin slot mechanisms, but very much just like the coin door you're going to find on any pinball machine. Stern includes a nice shooter rod. You see, I think it's the Imperial shooter rod sign. That's a nice touch. Tightening these bolts down. Your front two legs are now assembled. Lower this down carefully. You may need someone else to help you as you lower it down. They are quite heavy. Lockdown bar latch instructions here. We'll get into that a little bit later. How to take that lock bar off so that you can access the playing field. Taking out the glass, adding balls, fixing maybe a switch or two. There are a couple different ways to unbox these. You'll see me in the box itself taking all the packaging out because we're going to pull that pinball machine up. Okay, there we go. This again, team effort here. I'm used to doing it by myself, but team effort. You're going to get a stool, like a bar stool, to rest under the back of that pinball machine so that you can put the back legs on. Just as I did in the front, taking off those 5-8 bolts. See, so far not too bad, right? You can do this. There are a lot of similarities between setting up a commercial device pinball machine and a Homer Rekuse pinball machine. This is very similar. Again, alternating those bolts. Attaching that back left leg, or back right leg. And we're good. That is a pretty machine. Lifting up, pulling the stool out, and setting the pinball machine on all four legs. oh that's good stuff taking a side cut now you can snip that cord off i cannot stress enough do not cut that cord before the game is on all four legs i'm taking that same side cut and cutting off the keys to access the door opening up you see inside a number of things you're going to need the power cord being one of them the pinball machine manual as well as some decals in case yours get old or wore out a nice setup guide in there if you want to read the instructions on how to set up your brand new pinball machine you see the tilt bob in there is wrapped up we're going to take that out and I'm tapping on, there's a partition there that keeps you from going into the electronics. So looking in the packaging, there were two bolts there that we're going to use to secure the head in the upright position. And here, the name of the game, the pinballs. Always be sure to take that and throw it away. You don't want Fido getting a hold of that. Putting all the contents back in there. Closing the door. unwrapping the head here a bit are you guys still with me all right so we've got the two head bolts that we received in that packaging in the coin box we're going to fold that head up one of the important things is to make sure that wiring is nice and loose. You don't want it pulling or tugging or hitting anything. Slides right down. At first you'll just hand tighten these bolts. Again very similar to most modern pinball machines. You see the top left corner where the power cord goes Now I going to take that 5H socket ratchet and again I don want to stress this enough there no need to over here This is merely holding firm the head in place Now it's time to get excited. We're close to playing the first game. Made in the USA. Take off all the plastic protecting. Okay now these, the balls have oil on them. They're shipped with oil so that they don't rust or chip. Go ahead and rinse those off. Wipe them down, get all the oil off. I'm going to show you how to take off the lock down bar and take out the glass. There are two latches in there that just snap down. Now different on this machine than other commercial devices, there is a Molex connector connecting the button on the lock down bar. So you just want to unsnap that. Super simple. Set that to the side. Make sure your hand is close to that glass. could slide out and you do not want that. It would be a big mess. Make sure that cable is folded down before pulling out the playfield glass. Be careful on this glass. The sides of them could be sharp and could very much cut you. We're going to see a sneak peek of that here soon. Look at that. Now differently on this home version or office version there is to take out the playfield. There's a knob there, you want to unscrew that. There's a washer, take that out as well. Now the playfield is free to pull up and out into the service position. It's got rails right there so you can sit that if you need to. Taking both hands, pulling out. There's a rail system down there, just don't pull too far too hard. Your playfield will drop down into the cabinet. Pull out, lean up now that's in the service position. If you need to look at a coil you can always call myself as your distributor I can walk you through some of the repair process if need be. You've got a nice empty cabinet there and there's the other end of that partition. Very complex these pinball machines but once you understand some of them some of the components it's not bad at all. If you're sitting down and putting the playfield back into position slide in and rest right back down in there. You want to make sure to secure that playfield back down by screwing in the washer and knob. Now that I've got the balls all cleaned from oil set them into the machine. As you see this is different. The shooter comes with the playfield. It's attached to the playfield. Right here is where I do a boo-boo. Ouch! See I slid my hand across that glass and it was sharp. Most of the times they're not, but you want to be safe. Make sure to attach that molex connector again. And there is a switch right on that start button. Right on that start button on the other side of it. If you're having trouble starting a game, make sure that switch is pushed in all the way on the other side of the lockdown bar. In shipping, sometimes it can jostle loose. So I'm attaching the latches so that the lockdown bar is set into place, holding that glass in place. Attaching the power cord to the back. Nice cable holder. Plugging it in. We're close. Before we start it up, I'm going to show you how to access the back of the cabinet head. To do so on this device, you detach the screws up top of the trim. You need to be careful here because as that trim, once you get that loose, the play field or the, once you get that loose the glass is free. So be very very careful. Just pull that right out, stick it to the side, make sure you put it somewhere safe. Same with the playfield glass. Those are the components if you compare this to a pinball machine back in the 80's. There's a lot less back there, which is good. A lot less to go wrong. Easier maintenance, more efficient, more power. pinball in 2019. As we're putting the back glass back in, we put the trim down making sure to continue to hold it and then putting the screws back in. You see that band-aid on my finger? That playfield glass was a little sharp. You see some protective wrapping around the T-molding of the head. You can always take that off Really beautiful red on this machine The artwork is all hand drawn It beautiful beautiful stuff here You got different scenes from the film on both sides of the cabinet as well as events from the films right on the playing field. We're turning the machine on. The power is located right under the right side of that head of the cabinet. It'll take a little bit to boot up. Now this game is set to free play. It doesn't take any coins. But if you want to go into diagnostics, change some of the settings, the amount of balls you have, etc. You can do so by opening up that front panel door. There will be buttons on there for volume control, different settings, how many games you've played. Any piece of information that you need will be in those settings. Very easy to figure out as well. But if not, if you're having any troubles, that's why you have myself as a distributor. Just give me a call or a message. We're one phone call or text away. This is what it's all about right here.
