    I am a little confused. The guides say to add a 2 amp slow blow fuse to lug 6 on the small transformer. Add a 3/4 amp to lug 7. The picture seems to show the slow blow on lug 7 and the fast low on lug 6.

    It is 3/4 Amp, for the small transformer.

    Look at Post #6 on this thread: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/ycv-gottlieb-buck-rogers-restoration-or-the-infamous-system-1

    Good luck.

    There are COMPLETE instructions on what to do and how
    to install these fuses. what are you confused about?
    THE PICTURE? you can read the fuse values or something??
    you must have REALLY great eyes!

    Do you understand there are about a zillion different
    makers of fuses?? And how they handle a 'slow blow'
    varies dramatically. Some use a ceramic core with a
    wire wound around it. Some use a spring loaded 'mouse trap'.
    Some use a resistor. Some use a single wire with a
    dot of solder on the center of the fuse wire. Some use
    two dots of solder on the center of the fuse wire! some
    use sand around the fuse wire. it's endless...
