My first pin came with the manual envelope, and it had one of these with the instructions for using it included :) I'm always surprised when someone doesn't know what that is!

It is inserted between the flipper bat and the bushing, or between the bushing and the flipper crank.

It's just to make sure you have that little bit of up and down play between the bushing and the bat.

Thought I seen something similar in a "Karma Sutra" manual - but I digress...

Ok to be serious but not necessarily correct. Mind you no pictures just vague descriptions I'm working off.

The yellow bit I'm guessing to override the highvoltage interlock switch
The white rod is for removing PCB's
And the clear tube, ummm maybe removing hard to get at bulbs??? unsure
