I am thinking about putting a machine on location at a local diner in my city. Hours are 11am-8am. Game would always be in view of staff and visible through the window of the diner.

I am trying to find out what I need to do to be a legal operator. This would be my only game and my first try at this.

I understand and have read all the comments read regarding constant repairs, pinball doesn't make money anymore, etc.

I want to do this for the love of pinball and happen to live right by the location. If it gets to be too much I will stop, but I want to give it a try.

The machines I have to choose from are my Indy 500 and my Maverick. I feel like the maverick acts up more (opto errors, ball hang ups) so I am leaning towards Indy.

Looking for advice and recommendations.

For the guys that operate out there, what classification is your LLC? Gaming, Vending, Other? I'm not sure the right one to choose.
