Our
Refurbishing Process
With all of the
pinball machines we refurbish for resale, the following is done to each
machine at a minimum:
- The top of the playfield will be disassembled. All
parts removed, cleaned and / or polished, and then reassembled.
If any
parts are broken, they are replaced, if available.
- Prior to reassembling the playfield, it will be cleaned,
polished,
and waxed.
- All new rubber rings are installed.
- All bulbs are replaced with new bulbs - not just the bad
ones,
but all of them.
- All playfield switches and targets are cleaned and adjusted.
- All mechanical assemblies from under the playfield are
removed,
inspected, cleaned and/or polished, and reassembled. If any parts
are damaged or broken, they are replaced.
- The playfield light inserts are cleaned from the underside
of
the playfield.
- All new coil sleeves are installed with the exception of
drop target reset coils, unless the sleeves are damaged on these units.
- The coin door will be disassembled, cleaned, polished, and
a new lock
installed.
- All fuses are inspected for the correct rating, tested, and
replaced
if necessary.
- The cabinet will been cleaned, (exterior and
interior).
Furthermore, the exterior will be polished.
- Chrome legs are cleaned, polished, and waxed. On
occasion, legs will be painted when applicable.
- New leg levelers are installed, (the part which actually
rests
on the
floor).
- For solid state machines where a single NiCad battery is
mounted on the CPU / MPU board, a remote battery pack or a memory
capacitor will be installed
to reduce the risk of future board damage. However, if the CPU /
MPU board uses a 3 - AA battery holder, only the batteries will be
replaced with new ones.
- With electromechanical machines, stepper units are
disassembled, cleaned, and lubrication applied where needed.
Equally, coil sleeves are replaced on step up and step down coils when
necessary.
- New ball(s) are installed.
- Game will be tested for proper scoring and game play.
We
can also refurbish your game. Pricing is determined by the
complexity of the playing field of your game. For example, a
newer late 80's / 90's model with ramps, multiple playfield levels,
toys, and intricate mechanical objects will typically cost more than a
game with a single level playfield from the early 80's or prior.
