Ok I just got my prem today. My Slimmer was dragging bad. I loosened the screw at the top and raised the arm as high as I could and it was still dragging bad. I then put washer under the back of the bracket under the playfield that holds the slimmer mech (see photos). I finally got enough washers to keep him from dragging. The only thing is slimmer can't be hit when he's in the Ecto1 Lane. The ball goes under him. Is this the way it's supposed to do? Thanks for any info.
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:What was he hitting?
If its the metal black captive ball cover, start by taking the washers out.
Check Slimer for excess plastic or metal.
Next try raising his wire slightly by pulling up and testing.
A zip tie, or split mini post rubber may hold him.
Next is the grub screw on the boom.
To raise to the maximum, loosen and slide off boom, tighten screw and slide back on.
the shaft wont pass the now tightened screw. Loosen, drop 2mm and tighten. Thats the highest point.
The washers below the mech help, but as you can see, it changes the arc, and now cant be hit.
Ive put mine back to Normal, although If I was the designer of this, I would have added an adjutment front nd certain so no one would have these issues.
Sometimes, is a combination of these, as the left side is mounted differently by up to 6mm-8mm, as best as I can tell.
Yes he was dragging on the black captive ball cover. I did all this and the washer was the last step. It took all this to keep it from dragging. It can be hit everyplace but when it's in the Ecto1 Lane. I don't think there's anything in the rules that requires you to hit him in a certain lane. If there is something in the rules please let me know because I haven't been able to play very many games yet. He doesn't seem to go to the Ecto1 Lane as much as the others anyway. I'm going to leave it if there's nothing in the rules. Thank you.
