    ipdb.notable_features
    Trap holes (25), Rollover buttons (2). 1 regular card and 2 smaller Super Cards. Bump-feature. A button on each side of the cabinet (where flipper buttons would be) allows the player to "bump" the playfield up to ten times per game. This action jolts the playfield away from the player, allowing a playfield post to hit a rolling ball upfield. There is a delay feature on the tilt circuit to prevent tilting during a "bump". Metal guide rail washers are attached to underside edges of playfield to move it along the guide rails attached to inside walls of cabinet. The top edge of playfield has two springs (invisible to the player) to act as rebounds when the playfield is bumped.
    ipdb.notes
    'Hi-Fi' is the only bingo machine of which we are aware that has the bump-feature. The game shown on the manufacturer's flyer has a lockdown bar without the two metal "Bump Button Plates" that appear on lockdown bars of production games. These plates undoubtedly were added to inform the player who would not expect to notice side buttons on a bingo machine. These plates are listed in the manual under Miscellaneous Parts.
