Warnings and Agreements 

Welcome! 

 The PinPAC Pinball Personal Audio Controller has been designed for simplicity of installation! As with 

any pinball machine modification and add on kit there is a required level of expertise for the installation. If you are 
not proficient in basic pinball parts installation we recommend having our kit installed by someone who is 
proficient with the basics of pinball repair. Pinnovators requires our kit be installed by an experienced pinball 
service technician with basic electrical skills. As with any electrical piece of equipment a danger does exist and you 
must agree to not hold Pinnovators responsible for any injury, damages, etc. before continuing.

 

Sound Levels: 

 Pinnovators recommends running your headphone sound level at a safe level to prevent long term 

hearing loss. For a good example of recommend sound levels, we recommend following suggestions given by 
major audio equipment manufacturers such as Apple and their ipod.

ESD:

 

We recommend always discharging the headphone cable by touching it to an exposed metal part of the 

pinball machine before plugging it into the machine.

 

Power Cord:

  ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD for safety when working on your pinball machine!

 

 

Playfield Propping: 

Pinnovators highly advises following playfield propping instruction for your pinball machine. 

These instructions are typically found inside the Operators Manual for each machine. Failure to follow these 
instructions can cause fatal injuries or even death. Pinnovators also recommends having an assistant hold a 
propped playfield in the up position when servicing under the playfield.
