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.

Game Set Up

Note: X-treme model cranes are shipped with Marquee and Control Panel installed. When the game

must pass through a narrow door or opening, it may be necessary to remove the Marquee and the

Control Panel. If it is necessary to remove the Control Panel, disconnect the Control Panel harness

from the main harness, remove the 8 screws securing the control panel in the front door, and remove

control panel. If it is necessary to remove the Marquee, follow the instructions under “Changing the

Marquee Light Bulbs” in the Maintenance section. Proceed with set up:
