GAME: Cirqus Voltaire
SUBJECT: Upgrade Kit (Part #A-22270).
Now available is an upgrade kit for "Cirqus Voltaire". This kit corrects ball traps or hang-ups, reduces balls from hanging up or sticking on the ramp switches, and keeps the display plastic from pinching on the mini wood platform.
This kit is available through WMS Parts Service, or your local distributor.
This document is a copy of the installation instructions for the kit.
Please perform upgrades A to D on games manufactured before 11/15/97 to improve the game's playability.
With the playfield in the service position, remove the #8 machine screw and #8 washers that hold the display plastic down on the right side. Then slip the new bracket (p/n 01-14824) under the plastic, which is trimmed, but in front of the wood panel. Then, fasten the display plastic back on with the #8 machines screws and the #8 washers.
Be sure the Ringmaster is in the DOWN position, shut the game off and then raise the playfield to the service position. Locate the Ringmaster Cam & Switch Assembly on the back of the Ringmaster bracket. Brush the small cam PIN completely with Magna/Lube-G (p/n EI-204) or Teflon grease. Push down on the safety latch on the left side of the cabinet and lower the playfield.
