A Spinner is a type of control interface used in several arcade titles. To install a spinner, depending on the type, you either need to remove the knob and install it like a joystick (Capcom/Seimitsu), or completely disassemble the spinner (Taito) and remove the c-ring to release the shaft, and then re-build the spinner around the control panel.
When installing the spinner, make sure the encoder wheel doesn't touch the optical switches when in upright position, as this will cause resistance on the wheel and make the spinner difficult to use.
More recent spinners utilise the standard 30mm button hole (Ultimarc/Axunworks[1]) as a way of mounting onto the control panel.
