Does anyone have any tips or tricks to properly secure the flipper bats in place? I have just replaced a set in a POTO machine, and no matter what i do, the flipper stem will slide in the grip under the playfield even though it feels held tight.
Either get stronger and crank it down tighter. Or try new pawls from a different supplier if yours can't be tightened enough.
LTG : )
Thanks for the reply. Funnily enough i was just looking at a supplier to see if i can get the underside grips separately.
Don’t forget about the flipper bushing as well. Sometimes the bushing can be cracked or broken resulting in loose problems.
