Loose Flipper

(1/3) > >>

shredso:
First of all, if there is a better forum for repair ideas and tips, could someone let me know?  I'm down to the last few minor problems on my pin, and one keeps coming back.  My right flipper keeps coming loose.  There are 2 allen set screws holding it in place, and no matter how tight i make them, it loosens right up, during the first play.  Should I try some lock-tite, or do you think something is worn out?The machine is a Gottlieb Big Hurt.  Thanks.

pinballwizard79:
You really have to crank those things in....or yeah something is worn.....NO LOCKTITE

shredso:
I have an order ready to go through tomorrow, looks like I'll be adding a shaft, is there anything else it could be?  I did a flipper rebuild with their full kit a few months back.

ChadTower:

If you did a full rebuild, either you got a defective part, stripped the part, or you didn't assemble it right.  That shouldn't be happening to a rebuilt flipper.

shredso:
The rebuild didn't come with the shaft in the first place.  I guess I will need to totally disassemble it before I make any orders.
