5. MAINTENANCE All parts in the SUPER CHEXX Hockey Game have been manufactured to the highest standards possible The following maintenance should be performed as recommended to assure optimal performance and longevity of the game WARNING THIS GAME DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY LUBRICATION USE OF ANY OILS OR GREASE MAY VOID YOUR WARRANTY Most mechanical maintenance jobs when required will necessitate removal of the dome and or ice surface In all cases when the ice surface must be removed follow the ice surface removal procedure as given PARTS KIT Included in the spare parts kit is a wire cable with loop amp hooks This is used to hold the dome open when tilted back to service the game In the event the goalies are removed extra cotter pins are provided if the original cotter pins are damaged or lost PUCK Inspect the puck for large gashes which may impede a smooth rolling action down the puck ramps Replace if necessary PUCK RAMPS Periodically check the puck ramps for dirt accumulation and or other objects or materials that may cause the puck action to slow down To clean the ramps remove the goalies Slide all players to center ice this saves time as all the players and ice surface do not have to be removed Bend up the ice on either end and remove the nets Clean out the tracks and reassemble SCOREBOARD LIGHTS Replacement is advised when necessary Remove the four screws on the light diffuser and pu
