this morning sitting at the computer play a game of cards, I hear a noise I have never heard in 13+ years in this bowling center.
I thought a plane hit the roof of the center.
Find out that the 2 to 1 on lane 13 fell completely off of the gearbox. Thank god it was spotting pins when it happened or it would have broken the moving deck also. Had no warning signs that this was about to happen, just SNAP, and the bolts holding the everything together broke. After repairing the damage to the machine, bent scotch yoke plate, bent bearing track support assy., broken deck lowering hook, and the 2 to 1 assy, I dont know what happened to cause this,but a long day got longer than I wanted.
