Wizard of Oz
Jersey Jack, 2013I'm curious if the rollover switches in top two lanes can be adjusted to sit lower in playfield? The ball gets caught far to often on them and I have to tilt to get it unstuck. It seems like woz has many areas where the ball gets hung up often including rollover in c ball.
Thanks. I'll try the app. Another problem I'm having is ball getting stuck on plastic in corner with state fair balloon. It rolls out of cb vuk and sometimes falls off ramp and onto the balloon plastic. I thought about adding a robber post, but any other ideas? Thanks guys
I tried the app, and it read mine was around 14 degrees on the glass. I lowered back legs, and its closer to 12 now. My acdc registers at 12.5 with its own bubble centered. What does jjp recommend for woz I wonder? Thanks for info about the app BTW.
You need to check the angle on the playfield, not just the glass. Personally I make the back as high as possible and dial it back down if gameplay is affected.

Hey kong,
As Taylor mentions,angle must be checked on playfield-6.5 to 7 degrees is the norm for these modern-solid state games.Also-check it dead center of playfield in the YBR area and also check the left to right-horizontally-for being totally level-0 degrees-this is very important with all pinball/mechanical devices.Do not assume your floor or carpet is level.
It takes some time to get these adjustments right on...but you will have a much more consistent playing experience by doing it correctly and not just rushing it and calling it "good"
Hey Honkey Kong...
I have a great leveling level it is made by craftsman. If you need to borrow it. I think you guys need to come out anyway. I was wondering how the Woz was treating ya.

Quoted from Jumbosinbad360:I have my front legs all the way down and the rear legs all the way up AND on a pair of breeze blocks.... now thats what you call steep and fast!
I removed the front legs all together.

Now that's funny
I've been having problems with my Scarecrow rollover. When trying to make the skill shot the ball hits the rollover, jumps up and smashes into the witch. It's doing a good bit of damage to the metal ring at the bottom of the witch protector. I've had a ticket open since right after I bought it and can't even get a new roll over out of them. I tried shimming it with nylon washers, but that didn't help.
That's just one of a laundry list of issues I'm having and I can't seem to get too far with support. I've been giving them the benefit of the doubt because of the holidays, but my patience is starting to run out. /rant

Could you PM me the ticket number please ?
Thank you,

I just sent the PM. Thank you so much for offering your help in resolving my issues.
One other issue I'm having is that the vuk in trough keeps having trouble getting ball into plunger lane. I turned power up for vuk, but it seems like often, ball is hitting something and takes a few tries to get up. Anybody else have this issue? Maybe a leveling issue, or the ball keeper slightly blocking the ball as it pops up?

If playing with the power doesn't help, this will :

I had the same exact issue for my game with a build date of 10/24/2013 and the PINPLAY ball trough adjustment fixed it. I haven't had the issue since I made the recommended adjustment over 1.5 years ago.
