With the leg levelers on the legs. You turn them. Put a level ON the playfield to see if it's level side to side.
Slope depends on the age of the game you have. I use an inclinometer from the hardware store and put it on the playfield. 6.5 degrees or so is average for newer games...older games are not as steep
There was no 'official' settings for games of that age, set it where the game plays the way you like. I like my games to play fast, so my Skateball is probably around 5.5 to 6.5 or so, I've never measured it. I just set it to play steep and fast, and the flippers can still easily make all the shots.
Quoted from mattenno:What size wrench fits both the bally/williams games and stern games?
5/8" is normally the leg bolt size..
Quoted from chocky909:Why do modern tables still have those leg levellers? Surely someone can invent a way to adjust them without us having to lift the corner of a 300lb table with our back while we twist a rusty and dirty metal bolt? I think I saw someone had done something that did the job easier but it doesn't seem to have caught on.
Ideally I'd like to be able to adjust the height of each leg at the top where it attaches to the table. Slightly annoyed that JJP decided not to change anything along those lines. Just made the table very heavy so more to lift with your back.
