Rack-A-Ball
Gottlieb, 1962Trying to bring this one back to life. Mostly done except the "ball rack advance unit" is out of alignment I believe. When reset, it goes back past the brass connection "dots" onto the backlite plate. When I advance it forward it doesn't make it to the brass connection dots. Anyone have a good picture of this unit in the reset position? Thanks....

I don't own the game, and I've never worked on one, so this is purely a guess, but I assume that the ball rack advance unit is one of the stepper units in the head. If so, adjusting that so the snowshoes hit the rivets is just a matter of loosening the three screws holding the wiper and turning it until they contact the rivets, and then retightening the screws.
