Hi
I have a 1971 William Stardust, When I bought it, it did not reset properly, so I started to clean & adjusted all relays, contacts, replaced a few solenoids and loose worn parts. I'm getting close to the end of cleaning & adjusting,,
Anyway, in the backbox, there is a hi-score adjustment. As per the pic below, the questions are
1. Why will you adjust the Score??
2. Do you use all the 9 color wires or only a few??
3. Can you live-it blank with no plugs??
Thank's

1. You can set the score threshold(s) for earning free game(s)
2. You typically only use a couple to match the replay instruction card score values. But you can use as many as you want/can fit.
3. Yes, you can leave blank - put unused pins into the holes drilled into the wood panel so as to not complete any circuits
