Just for information, it is well known that the castor wheels Sega used for these DLX beasts were badly underrated for the weight.  When replacing, do not replace like for like, go for a much higher rated and stronger castor.

Yes i roll it
last site is done
It is really smooth if the the paint is dry
I am very happy with the result





Looks great, my Pacman is in pretty much the same condition.  What kind of paint is that and where did you get it?  Was it colour matched stuff that you would normally use to paint a room?

The Chair rumbling constantly could be a sign of a problem with the PCB stack in the cage, or simply a relay fault.  Do not let the chair rumble constantly or you will burn the motor out.

I would do as Alpha1 suggested, and unscrew the cage and re-seat the PCB stack, remember where everything goes!

For the screen, attempt to adjust the focus on the LOPT/Flyback on the monitor chassis.  Be careful though, not easy to access these, use a plastic or ceramic adjuster/screwdriver if you can to reduce risk of possible shock.

You can unscrew the plastic cover on the controller to access the internal pots, and simply adjust it.

The lamps are only supposed to flash when you get hit.

Good luck, its an awesome game.  I regret selling mine, but you need a big place for these.  I think it's pretty cool that you managed to save these in Lebanon.

Equites thank you so much you saved my starblade  :D

ok 3 small problem

1 the chair keep on rumbling like crazy out of control so i had to plug it out

2 the screen is a bit out of focus

3 and the gun is not centered i should turn it slightly to the right so i can center my shooting

and what up with these annoying flash lamp that keep on flashing is that normal??  :o

is there a way to calibrate the gun

oh and i forgot to mention all the games i got have no keys so eventually i have to drill them and change the locks
so my question is where the dip-switch located in starblade ??

i cant find it on the back

thank you in advance

ur sure Equites ??? if yes i will trie it in the center

a big thank you if this will work :)

The actual connector is undersized, to the point that it never reaches the ends of the socket when plugged in, thus cannot be locked in.  Im not sure why Namco adopted this method.  I remember it causing me some confusion too when I was restoring the cab.

However, the number of pins in the socket and number of holes in the plug connector match, just make sure you centre it and house all the pins.

Do not offset the plug connector, and label TOP should be visable like in your pic.

Yes the connector is inserted correctly, just make sure it is centered properly.

The point is that it can't be centered, it's either left or right if I look at those pics....

No it must be centred, I should know I used to own one.

Dudes

Is anyone planning a Road Trip from Brussels to UK anytime soon?  If so, could you please get in touch with me, as I have some parts I could do with being bought over into the UK from one of our DLF members.

There would of course be a cash reward for the effort, could work out nice both sides.

Thanks

That Bezerk is awesome, such a hard cab to find, seems to be in great condition complete with bat-stick too!  PCBs are easily found :)
