Removing a bolted backbox

Steps

  • EM games: take off the back door of the backbox to reach the four mounting bolts.
  • Older solid-state games: remove the backglass and swing open the hinged board panel to reach the bolts.
  • Unplug all the wiring between backbox and cabinet before loosening the bolts.
  • Hold the backbox firmly while the last bolt comes out so it cannot topple.
