Is there a way to adjust Frankenstein when he lowers himself. I think he is coming to far ahead when lowered. It's hard to hit him and make the switch activate. Any help is appreciated.

Going from memory, I believe there is an Allen screw on the collar hooked to the linkage the slips over the shaft.

Let me see.

I may be wrong about that. I'm going through my teardown pics and I don't see a collar.image-70.jpgimage-70.jpg

Thanks Skins. I can't seem to find anywhere u can adjust this.

Make sure the switch is adjusted properly and that the Frankenstein figure is sitting properly in its slot when it is standing.

The switch looks ok but when frank is lowered he just lowers to far forward. Therefore when hittng him it takes a lot of force to hit the switch.

Mine was doing the exact same thing. Hemiorange might be able to chime in and describe what he did to fix it. If he doesn't see the thread, try PMing him.

There is a collar. See #3 & #8

I would make sure the hex screw is tight and its set correctly with frank table fully down. Did you buy it way or is this a newly developed problem.

Check that the monster pivot shaft (Part 6 manual page 2-27) is inserted properly and that the end of the monster arm pivot support bracket (Part 1a1 page 2-27) is slotted properly into the table (Part 2, page 2/27)

Put Frank in test so his is standing up an look on top behind him there is a small wire if that solder is cracked or broke it will only register a strike every once in a while, it's happened to mine twice just put a nice bead of solder and it will last awhile that spot takes a lot of abuse.
