Title: saucer adjustment ?
Post by: morgo on September 06, 2014, 11:17:12 PM

 On my newly acquired Lost World the left saucer kicks the ball straight down the middle 10 times out ten . Can the saucer be adjusted ?
putting the ball in this saucer is the kiss of death.
any help appreciated

Yes - carefully bend the kicker arm a little one way.  The ball will go the opposite way to the way you bend it.  Keep fiddling 'till its goes where you want $#$

1 - Make sure the game is level
2 - There are three screws holding thee assy under the playfield. Loosen all three, turn the assy left or right and then tighten.
