Hoi,
Had deze tutorial een tijdje geleden gemaakt voor AO. Is in het Engels, maar daar kunnen jullie vast wel tegen:
To start, a picture of the important screws, bolts and nuts that hold everything together. I can go all technical (stating "m4x20", etc), but I think this makes it quite clear. I will be referring to these screws/bolts/nuts using the designated letter in between brackets; e.g. '(A)'
First, remove the Power supply by removing the 4 bolts (H). The PSU can be pulled straight out. It uses a connector inside the cab, which is a neat feature, imo.
Open up the CP, and pull on the two black tabs on the left and right to release the black monitor bezel:
The bezel will probably pop loose, and can be removed by pulling it towards you. On the top, it is held by two metal lips, so just pull the bezel free of the cab at the bottom, and then it'll just drop out.
Disconnect all wires connecting the monitor. On my Nanao MS2930, these are visible on the front of the monitor frame:
Next, remove the top half of the CP by disconnecting the wires and removing the screws (D) holding the CP hinge to the lower part of the CP. WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE LOWER CP PART AT THIS TIME! It also holds the lower monitor support bracket in place!
Next, remove the marquee holder and marquee. It is held by two bolts (B) at the top. Disconnect the wiring from the lighting fixture (on the left side. One is the ground/earth wire, the other is power).
Stand behind the cab, and remove the metal monitor access panel (held by two bolts (C)) and the metal panel holding the lighting fixture (held by 7 screws ((A)).
Now on to removing the doors
.. The biggest one is easy, so two left ;-):
Remove the coin box door by opening the door and removing the two screws (J). Remove the door by holding it halfway open and, when standing in front of the cab, pulling it to the left. It is slotted in the cab on the right side.
Remove the coin door surround by removing the 6 screws (J). It will come straight out.
Remove the door holding the coin acceptor by disconnecting the coin switch and earth wire, and removing the 3 screws (A) holding the door to the cab.
Put the cab on it's back, monitor facing up:
Remove the four nuts and washers (O) at each corner
Now, get yourself a buddy (or squeeze a can of spinach open with one bare hand and swallow it in one big gulp :lol, and lift the monitor out of the cab. Tip: since you will have removed the marquee holder and metal plate, you can actually stand IN the marquee area, making monitor removal (and installation) somewhat easier when you are doing this by yourself.
Turn the cab over, belly down:
remove all screws (E) holding the back half of the cab to both the front half and to the bottom. Beware: there are also 3 screws at the bottom of the coin box area:
Remove both wheels, held by 4 bolts and washers (G) each:
The back half of the cab can now be lifted straight up with little to no resistance. If you feel any resistance, check if you really have removed all screws.
Put the cab in its normal, vertical position. It should now look similar to this:
Disconnect and remove both speakers, held by 4 screws (A):
Remove the metal bracket (to which the 'bottom' of the marquee area is attached) by removing two screws (A) at the top, and two bolts (C) at the back.
loosen the PSU connector and ground wires, held by 3 bolts (M)
Unscrew the connection PCB from the cab (you can keep everything connected if you like), held by 4 bolts (K)
Remove the lower half of the CP by removing the 6 bolts (F), and two screws (missing on first picture. It is right next to the coin slot on the picture below. There is another on the left side as well):
Now, remove the lower monitor support bracket by removing the two screws (A) on the left and right side. You may have to pull a little to free it.
The end is in sight.. ;-)
Remove three bolts (M) at the bottom front of the cab (these secure the kick plate):
Once these screws are removed, the kick plate can be pulled straight towards you when sitting in front of the cab to remove it.
Now, get the cab on its belly again, and remove the bottom from the front half, again held by screws (E)
That's it! One Blast City in bits and pieces
