1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before using this game, read the following safety precautions thoroughly and use the game
correctly. Be sure to observe the safety instructions as they are important for ensuring safe
operation of the game.

This indicates risk that can lead to personal injury and/or property damage

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction regarding the use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Children should be supervised while playing this game.

● When moving the machine, exercise caution and do not push the glass section.
The glass used on the game is tempered safety glass, but it can break if excessive
force applied, thus causing possible danger to yourself and people around the
machine.
● Do not allow players to tilt, lift or drop the machine, or conduct any other
improper action. Such action may cause the machine to tip over or the glass to break，
thus causing danger to people around the machine.
● When installing the machine, use the leg levelers to ensure that machine does not
move easily. lf the leg levelers are not adjusted properly, the machine can move if a
light push is applied, thus causing possible danger to people around the machine.
● Be careful not to pinch your fingers when adjusting the leg levelers.
The machine is very heavy. Do not place your hand under the machine.
● This machine is for indoor use only. Never use the machine outdoors as rain or
dust can cause a short circuit or electric shock.
● To prevent possible electric shock due to failure, this equipment MUST be fitted
with a securely connected GROUNDED plug.
● Install the power cord so that people cannot step on it or in such a way that could
present a trip hazard. Route it under other machines or where it could be crushed.
● Do not unplug the power cord by pulling the cord, as could break internal wires
and cause electric shock.
● Do not use power cord if it becomes damaged.
If internal wires are exposed, replace the cord immediately; otherwise, a short circuit
or electric shock can occur.
● If you have to leave the machine unattended during maintenance or service, be
sure to close and lock the coin door, and rear compartment door to prevent people
from getting injured by touching the inside of the machine.
● When removing the rear compartment door, hold it carefully with both hands as it
is large and heavy. Be careful not to drop it on your feet.

3. Installation of Machine

Install the machine according to the instructions and procedures specified in this operation
manual. Failure to follow the specified procedures may result in a fire, electric shock, injury, or
machine malfunction.
Insert the power cord plug firmly into the power outlet. Poor contact may cause overheating that
can lead to fire or burns.
Install the machine securely by using the level adjusters. Unstable machine installation can result in
accident or injury (See “Adjusting the Level Adjusters”).

Installation Conditions
Locations to avoid

 The machine is designed for indoor use. Never install the machine outdoors or
at any of the following locations:
● Place in direct sunlight
● Place exposed to rain or water leaks.
● Place where a water jet could be used.
● Damp place.
● Dusty place.
● Close to heating devices.
● Hot place.
● Extremely cold place.
● Place where moisture condensation may occur due to temperature
differences.
● Place where the machine may become an obstruction in emergencies (such
as close to emergency exits) and place where a fire extinguisher or similar
equipment is installed.
● Unstable place or location where vibrations are produced.

 The quality of prizes may deteriorate, depending on installation conditions and prize
types.
＊ The temperature inside the upper doors can be much higher than the temperature
of the surrounding area since the upper doors block ventilation and fluorescent
lamps are used to illuminate the prizes. If the machine is installed where it is
exposed to direct sunlight, the temperature inside the glass doors may become
extremely high.
