move the power supply from the game.

Power Supply Installation

1. Install the new power supply in the game, and tighten the screw securing the power supply to the

mounting bracket.  See Figure 6.

2. Connect the power supply wire connection. Secure the jumper harness to the other harnesses

with tie wrap. See Figure 6.

3. Restore the hard drive/power supply tower to its upright position. Slide the electronics tray back

into place, making sure that the connectors on the back of the hard drive bracket click into the
connectors on the wall of the game, if applicable (see Figure 7). If you disconnected three connec-
tors from the electronics tray to the game (see Figure 5), reconnect them. Secure the tray by
screwing in the thumbscrew. See Figure 4.
