INITIAL INSPECTION
Upon arrival of the machine, it is important to check the following items:
a. Damage to external packing.
b. Physical damage to the ride.
c. Correct documentation is present.
d. Ride Serial Number.
e. Correct main’s voltage rating
f. Coin mechanism currency and credits
Any damage or discrepancies should be reported to your supplier immediately.
INITIAL OPERATION
a. Read the operators manual fully prior to operating the ride.
b. Prior to connecting the machine to the mains supply, ensure that it corresponds to the
supply rating, which should be stated on a sticker or plate on the rear of the base
close to the mains cable outlet.
c. Upon power up, the lights on the buttons and outer body should illuminate, and begin
to flash. An audible message may also be heard, depending on the ride model, such
phrases are, “Normal operating mode” or “The self test is complete”. In cases with
Integrated Video Game Rides, please wait for the monitor to display footage of the
game before operation can commence.
d. Insert the correct coinage for the operation of the ride, after which the start button will
flash, and / or an audible prompt will be heard for you to “press the start button”.
e. Press the start button and the ride will begin to operate. All lights will flash or
illuminate and music will begin to play. Check the volume is set to a desired level.
Press the feature buttons in turn, and the appropriate sound effect or interaction will
take place. ( please note, each feature must have completed its cycle before another
feature can be activated).
f. Whilst the ride is in operation, check that everything is working correctly, and that
there are no unusual noises or vibrations. When the ride has operated for the pre set
duration (usually around 90 seconds) the ride will automatically stop. A farewell voice
message may be heard, and the ride is once again ready to accept coins.
g. Make a note of the rides serial number. This is located on the silver manufacturers
plate at the rear of the ride. The serial number gives access to essential details of
your machine, including your machines parts and history.
