Taking the legs off for transport

Steps

  • Remove the balls and coin box first.
  • Each leg is held by two bolts that thread into brackets inside the cabinet.
  • Feel inside the cabinet: on older games the bracket threads may be stripped and the bolts held with nuts instead; loosen those nuts before backing the bolts out.
  • Carry the cabinet flat, standing on its back end (it has small feet there), or on its side if you must. Get help: a game weighs well over 200 lb.

A full game is very heavy; lift with a helper to avoid back injury.
