Introduction-Must Read
The Acme Crane that you have purchased is very different from any other model crane that you may
be familiar with. Please be aware of the differences so that you can take advantage of the unique
features.
Claw
The claw is operated using an air cylinder that is activated by an air pump and valve. There is a
valve used to control claw strength for payout adjustment. Unlike traditional solenoid operated
claws, there is no need for wires at the claw.
Crane Mechanism Motors and Limit Switches
All motors in the Acme Crane are stepper motors. The crane always knows where the claw is, and
therefore there are no limit switches for left to right or front to back travel in the crane mechanism.
An opto style sensor is used for sensing when the claw has reached the plush on down travel.
Special Features
Plushing
The Acme Crane will “Plush” the merchandise while in attract mode to keep plush loose and avoid
packing. The claw travels out to the playfield and lifts plush slightly before releasing it and
returning home. This is repeated in different positions on the playfield at a programmable
frequency.
Plush Elevator
The crane senses the level of the plush using the distance that the claw descends in attract mode. As
the merchandise is won and the level gets low, the floor raises to compensate. This keeps the
merchandise at a constant level despite the number of wins.
Rotate Claw

The control panel contains a rotate claw dial. The player can rotate the claw, giving them additional
control over game play.
