Taking Care of Your TMS Machine
Preventive Maintenance Basics
Here are some basic points about keeping your equipment functioning properly:
- Pinspotters must be kept free of dirt, dust, and excess oil. A clean pinspotter performs much
better and reduces the chance of electronic and mechanical problems.
- Do not place items on top of electronic components or cover any of their vents. These vents
provide airflow to keep your electronics from overheating.
- Keep food and drinks away from electronic components. Food particles and spills might
make the electronics sticky and unusable.
- Do not get the power switches or other components wet. Moisture can damage these parts and
cause an electrical hazard.
- Always disconnect a power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
- Pinspotters are subject to constant vibration and must be checked frequently for loose nuts
and bolts. All bolts on the pinspotters and accessories must be tightened with a torque
wrench. Over tightening bolts will simply cause them to break and, depending on the function
of the bolt, may cause operating headaches. Also, check and tighten any loose screws on the
pinspotters, especially the setscrews, as well as any loose bolts on the pit cushions and ball
elevators, at regular intervals.
- Setup and maintain a preventive maintenance program as outlined in this chapter.
Manufacturer’s Recommendations
Always use original QubicaAMF parts with your equipment.
The detailed part listings in this publication make it easy to locate parts for reordering
purposes. Always order parts by the part number and description, not by index and/or
page numbers because this information is subject to change.
Always supply your equipment’s serial number when placing an order.
Setting Up a Preventive Maintenance Program
It must be understood that equipment of any kind requires a minimum maintenance and
should operate according to standards. Regular, scheduled maintenance is very important
in order to keep your equipment in excellent condition.
Daily Maintenance Schedule
Let's look at the daily maintenance required for all pinspotters:
o
Every day, all the pinspotters must be checked for stop sheets. These are pieces of paper
that are put on the back of the pinspotter to indicate if something went wrong with it the
night before. A qualified maintenance technician should immediately correct the
malfunction.
o
Pin strings should be inspected daily. If they show evidence of wear, they should be
shortened and refastened and the string tension readjusted to compensate for the
shortened string. If a proper program of string maintenance and inspection is set up, you
will never experience a broken string during normal play. Put very simply, there is no
excuse for strings breaking in play other than careless string maintenance.
o
Clean all lane surfaces and surrounding areas.
