In particular, the procedure for attaching the units and components to the mechanical board of the pachinko machine, the unit frame and the body frame, and the unit and components to the body frame and the game board,
In the case of setting two-dimensionally and three-dimensionally (in the present embodiment, sliding the unit body sideways, pressing the part of the mechanism board base body in the front-back method of the pachinko machine)
If one part of the procedure is unknown, the attaching operation or the removing operation becomes impossible, or an extremely long operation time may be required with the result of performing a trial and error operation. For example, in the above embodiment, the left and right sliding operation of the unit body with respect to the base must be performed according to the explanation display, but since there is no explanation display, even if the attachment and detachment work is performed in the up-down direction or the front-back direction, the work is not performed. It cannot be realized. However, according to the present invention, the instructions of the attachment / detachment means are displayed at the respective attachment locations of the attachment body,
Even when the units and components are set two-dimensionally and three-dimensionally on the mechanism board and the main frame, and the units and components are set two-dimensionally and three-dimensionally on the main frame and the game board, the action in the planar direction (left and right, up and down) and The above-described configuration is employed when manufacturing or handling a recent pachinko machine in which the operation procedure to the main unit is determined in chronological order, and a large number of unit devices and a unit body are complexly combined to form a main body. Things are absolutely valid.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the mounting position of the unit body with respect to the mounting base and the mounting direction are clearly displayed on the display screen for explaining the method of engaging the unit body, so that the unit can be easily and quickly mounted. Also, when the unit body is removed from the mounting base on the display surface for explaining how to remove the unit body, the method of removing the lock and the direction of removal are clearly displayed, so that it can be easily and quickly removed, which is convenient.
