PRECAUTIONS REGARDING PRODUCT OPERATION

To avoid injury and trouble, be sure to pay attention to the behavior of visitors and players.

3-1 BEFORE OPERATION

● Check if all of the adjusters are in contact with the surface. If they are not, the cabinet can move and cause an accident.

● To ensure safety, carry out a trial run before starting operation, and be sure to check the safety devices. Each ride moves, so each is equipped with safety devices. Be sure to check that these safety devices function normally.

- Can you play a game when the motion of the ride has been stopped with the motion selector switch on the control tower?

- When ride motion has been selected, can you stop the motion of the ride with the motion selector switch on the control tower after the game has started?

- Does the ride stop when the MOTION STOP button at the center of the control panel is pressed?

● Check each safety device and also check to see if any of the rides move abnormally. Abnormal motion may cause an accident, so do not operate the machine until the cause of the abnormality has been removed.

- Does the ride move in the direction corresponding to the direction of operation?

- Does the ride move smoothly?

- Is there any undesirable looseness in the ride?

- Is any unusual noise emitted while the ride is operating?

- Is any unusual vibration emitted while the ride is operating?

- Does the ride stop at an even position when the game is over?

● If an abnormality occurs in the ride mechanism, immediately stop operation, turn off the power, and contact the office indicated in this manual or the point of purchase.

If you continue to operate the machine while there is an abnormality in it, a serious accident such as an electric shock, short circuit, fire, or a fall may occur.

● The motion of the ride will not stop when the ride is touched by anybody other than a player. Be sure to monitor the machine during a game.

● If a part related to the actuator of the ride mechanism breaks or deforms, for example, necessitating replacement or repair of the part, request the office indicated in this manual or the point of purchase to carry out this work. Specialized knowledge, technical expertise, and tools are necessary for carrying out this work. If you attempt to carry out this work yourself, an accident may occur.

● Be sure to perform appropriate adjustment of the projector. For operation of this machine, do not leave monitor’s flickering or deviation as is. Failure to observe this can have a bad influence upon the players’ or the customers’ physical conditions.

● It is suggested to prepare a rest space for players who feel sick after playing the game.

● Do not put any heavy item on this product. Placing any heavy item on the product can cause an accident fall or parts damage.

● Do not climb on the product. Climbing on the product can cause an accident fall.

To check the top portion of the product, use a step ladder.

● To avoid electric shock, check to see if door & cover parts are damaged or omitted.

● To avoid electric shock, short circuit and/or parts damage, do not put the following items on or in the periphery of the product.

Flower vases, flowerpots, cups, water tanks, cosmetics, and receptacles/containers/ vessels containing chemicals and water.

● Inspect for the following items during a trial run. If there is any type of error, use the

Test Mode, etc., to resolve the problem. If you continue use with an error, it can cause an accident or irreparable parts damage.

- Do the steering wheel and the ride move smoothly during the initialization operation? (See Chapter 7.)

- Is there any strangeness in the operability of the steering wheels or the pedals?

- Is there any abnormality in the steering wheel reaction mechanism?

- Is there any improper adjustment of the projector screen?

- Are the bellows torn or has a screw dropped out of them?

● During daily cleaning, be sure to check the surface of the steering wheel, gear shifter, and other parts that the player touches with his hands for damage, cracks, or loose screws. If a player uses the machine while it is damaged, cracked, or has a loose screw, the player may become injured.

● During daily cleaning, be sure to check the seat for any abnormality, wetness, etc. Failure to do this may result in deliberate tampering or negligence being left undetected.

● Players directly hold the controller with their bare hands so it is recommended that wet towels (paper towels) be provided.

● Endeavor to clean the steering wheel and seat frequently.

● Provide a container or space for storing the customers’ hand luggage, etc. To help prevent an accident and also protect parts, establish measures so that customers do not bring raingear, such as umbrellas, on rainy days, or juice or other beverages, into the area where the machine is installed.

● During network play, if communication is interrupted for some reason, each game will continue independently. Also, if communication is interrupted while in

Customer Welcome Mode, the Test Screen will appear.

● When one cabinet connected for network play enters the Test Mode, the other cabinets will move to the Test Screen. For this reason, do not needlessly put a cabinet in the Test Mode while a customer is playing a game, even if the cabinet is not being used.

● You can make game settings and coin/credit (fee) settings individually, even for cabinets that are connected for network play. You can also change the settings of an individual cabinet to those for advanced players or beginners, for example. Normally, however, set all of the cabinets to the same settings. If you make a mistake in the fee setting, it is likely that the balance of payments and other items will be adversely affected.
