Confirm the Correct Kangaroo Document
Kangaroo settings may differ by PCB version, document printing, cabinet configuration, coin-door wiring, or regional hardware. Confirm that document ST-204-01, 2nd printing applies to your Atari Kangaroo arcade machine before changing switch settings.
This back door sheet is an operator-reference document. It is not a complete Kangaroo operation, maintenance and service manual, wiring diagram, or schematic package.
Electrical Safety
Safety warning: Disconnect cabinet power before accessing the CPU PCB or changing switch settings. Arcade cabinets and CRT monitors may contain hazardous voltages, and a CRT monitor can retain a dangerous electrical charge after the machine has been unplugged. Use a qualified arcade technician when you are not trained to work safely with arcade electronics.
