I just recieved my AFM, looks fair, not the condition I was hoping for though.

I assume because of shipping some stuff need to be reattached and stuff but the main issue is the flipper feels weak and they are not in the correct position.

what should be done in this case ?

thanks guys, well I'll have to work on it for a while and waiting for the parts.

adjusting the flipper didn't work, I believe the crank arm need to be replaced, I'll just rebuild the flippers.

when I adjust the bat and press the flipper button, the bat goes up and doesn't return completely back, it stays on a higher degree. with every press it goes more higher !!

not very happy with the purchase, but I'll work on it to fix some issues :s

I'll try that again, already expecting new set of flippers. I'll take photos of the pin and the whole story after sorting couple of stuff with the seller

flipper working now, just had a chance to try the pin, noticed two main things

- the left ramp do not record "Capture".

-when the saucer wall goes down, the target on the back drops down from the first ball, every hit to the center will just make the ball goes to the ramp without a hit record. I need to hit the left and right targets to get a hit.

is this how it supposed to be ? I think the back target should not drop down until the last hit.

Hey mike,

Ill check that today and will let u know.

Thanks

Looks like the ramp switch doesnt work, will try to adjust it, if that didnt work ill have to replace.

The option is set to easy but that is the default option by the pin. The only other option is hard, will try that.

not really, I saw pix of the playfield before buying, not happy with bolts used and some little stuff here and there, specially the cabinet, edges are not great and you can see the wood layers in some places.

I asked the seller to ship it to me to Dubai, but I was in UK when the machine was ready, so I shipped it my self, I was waiting for a refund for a shipping cost.

When I bought the machine, seller told me he'll restore as much as I want, depends on how much I'll pay for restoration, I asked to change certain things only, the rest will be my project.

A friend of mine sold his AFM recently, he was planning to swap his playfield with ceramic clearcoat. now he is offering me the playfield "cheap" since he don't need it anymore

should I go for it ? never swapped playfield before, but very intrested in trying

thats why I'm asking, I should hold my horses for now I guess lol

Yea I'll get the PF and swap it when the time is right.

I might sell my old PF, with some touchup, it should be good
