The headbox is cleaned and placed back on the body. I remove the instruction cards and relaminte them. I also place "beer seal" on the two brackets which hold the backglass in place. These are screwed into the top of the head and are always overlooked. Polish the channel as well Looking good !





Install the head board after rebuilding all the mechs etc





The bottom baseboard. Much the same - everything is rebuilt. All contacts cleaned and adjusted. Corrosion removed from the brass screw holding the coil in the relay housing. I hate rust and corrosion ! I'll replace the power cable tomorrow, and drop the board into the machine. Then back to the playfield !
