RFM cabinet bolts

[Jonwolf]

I don't suppose it matters but can anyone tell me the 'correct way' to thread the top box bolts on an RFM? Which end goes on the outside of the cabinet? I've seen it done both ways

Mine are done with the larger bit on the outside, the screw bit is on the inside

Looks better that way

If the larger bits are the bushings, which I think they are - I've just read the manual and it says 'place a bushing in the mounting hole in the cabinet and insert a bolt through the back box.' Weird, cos most have it the other way around.

On mine the bolt is on the outside and the bush is on the inside, I'd hazard a guess that as the bush doesn't stick out as much as a bolt and washer it's less likely to catch on the playfield whilst it's being pulled in and out?

The bolt for the 'resting posts' is on the outside. I'll be installing the other bolts on the outside so they match

Yep that's the same as mine so either were both wrong!!! Or right!
