I would really appreciate some help from anyone who has experience with wells gardner k7000 arcade monitors. I am trying to figure out how to power this thing and wire it to my isolation transformer. The seller told me that it came with a power cable. He lied. all it has on the back is this 2 pin molex:

I bought this isolation transformer:

All it has is 4 unlabeled pins with no explanation of what connects to where. arghhhhhhh!!!!
I intend to use this monitor outside of a cabinet so there is no jamma connections and no arcade psu. I just want to connect it to the mains with my isolation transformer somewhere in the middle. None of the diagrams on the wells gardner manual are in the least bit clear or helpful to me. arghhhhhhhh!
The AC adapter for my other arcade monitor uses a 3 pin connection so I don't know if I can use this for the Wells gardner model. It looks like this:

I have a spare pc power cable that I could cut open to make a custom cable like this:

Would I need to make a custom cable to go from the molex on the back of the WG monitor to one of the sets of points on the isolation transformer and then another custom cable to go from the other set of points on the isolation transformer to a wall power outlet? If that is right, how do I know which wires attach to where on the isolation transformer given that it has no useful labels?

CFX, Thank you so much! I was getting really frustrated trying to find a straight answer on this. You explained it far better than Wells Gardner!
