    I googled this and searched here, but could not find an answer. As it's not mentioned in the manual, it must be so easy that anyone can do it, but apparently not me. Doh! I want to tilt down the backbox mechs to change some bulbs behind the backglass. I see a huge lever. When I pull it, the whole mech tilts about one cm towards me. (See picture 2) Is there anything else I have to push, pull or press? It doesn't seem like the old padding is sticking to the back of the glass.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thx. I inspected it again. The resting brackets are there and the hinges are tightly screwed on. The 2 corner brackets are not in the way. I‘m thinking perhaps some sticky felt pads lower down the glass are still adhering to it. Kind of puzzling.

    I will see if I can pull a fine thread down the back of the mounting board.

    Thanks for this additional info.

    I’m starting to think I should just leave it as it is, since only the same player shoots again and game over lights are not working. I would hate to damage the backglass.

    I will, however, take a look whether the shipping blocks are still there.

    I’m never going to sell this game, so my heirs can deal with it
