Quoted from Manny65:So you have both the front and back on the lower holes - right? In thinking about it, it makes sense - the top holes (front & back) lower the overall machine for kids but keeps the angle the same. If you do one pair on the top and the other on the lower it'll give you either too little angle (as was your case) or too much angle.
Yes. The front was on the lower holes already, and the back was on the top holes, so I couldn't get any angle. Fixed the back, and 6.5 was easy to achieve.
My fronts actually still had the 3 hole bracket on the inside, backs, I had to flip/move the two hole bracket down.
Was happily surprised that this machine has really clean original WPC boards (not sure if actually original to the machine, but not Rottendog). Still had batteries, so took them out immediately, a little oxidation on the ends. Need the NVRAM or remote battery holder. Any one kit/mod better than another?
Something that isn't a big deal, but bothers me (as I lay awake at night figuring out how to fix the most trivial things), my start button and extra credit button are not lighting. Switched out the bulbs, still not working. Everything else on the same color (row / column) works fine. I thought I saw a setting in a WPC menu somewhere to stop the start button from flashing during attract mode, but still think it would light up during the lamp test (which it doesn't). They are the only two things that are not working and it's sort of driving me nuts. Given that it seems like something somebody would have intentionally disabled (as they are the only things not working), any thoughts on what I might be experiencing or what I might look for (other than tracing the wires)?
And after even more play, this machine is great. A lot going on, a lot of great shots. Happy with my purchase, but I can report that I did not get it for $3k, lol.
