I want to disassemble the top ramps and the bride's helmet for cleaning, for that I need to unscrew some screws that are hard to reach when the playfield is just lifted. The playfield does not slide out, as it does on more modern/DMD machines, nor comes the playfield with brackets that allows it to rest on the front of the cabinet. I can only lift it out of its hinges, but then there seems no place to rest it.

Are there tricks to do this?

No tricks, except to use a small/stubby screwdriver or socket wrench.

On both Brides I've owned, the two plastic spacers on the back of the large clear plastic were not secured, probably for this reason.

OK, so given the right tools (stubby screwdriver - check) there should be no need to further remove the playfield, just to remove the large clear plastic and left ramp?

Yep, and I think the helmet too, but that's easy. But yeah, there's no reason to have to remove the playfield.

I'm late on this one, but did you take any photos?
This is the first place I look when I do any work, and photos always help the hobby.
