Hey guys,

I have a High Roller Casino and most of the time when I launch the ball with the plunger, the ball wants to move towards the left and it ends up hitting the wire ramps, thus affecting the ball going into the roulette wheel properly.

Is there any adjustment so that the ball can launch a little more to the right or straight?

Any help or advice would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Jason

Manual plunger? You can move whole assembly to the right. If you lift playfield there are 3 screws that hold metal plate on, should be Phillips head. Just loosen them enough to shift it to the right & you should be able to tell if tip of shooter rod is centered with the ball. J

A worn plunger tip might also not strike the ball true

Thanks guys! I’ll check it out. I installed a new plunger assy and tip, so maybe it’s something that I did.

Quoted from Yoeddy:

I also have this game and anytime you have the play field raised then lowering it back down, you need to make sure that the plunger is centered. There is just enough wiggle room from left to right to throw the ball off either way. I added a couple of pictures for an example, it’s worth a shot before you spend any money.
