Got My Second Vintage - But Something's Odd Here

[teachermaniac]

Thanks for the help guys.

I'll try to get at the sphere path and the axel of the rocker tomorrow. Kinda cramped in there and I'm not sure how to remove the lower tray. I'm a smart guy, I'm sure I can figure it out.

Updates to follow.

No lubes, just clean!

Your having the same kind of problem I am. Here's what I did to make mine work.

I removed the lower tray by pulling all the stapels out. Then I cleaned everything and put it all back together. I only have one piece I can't figure out.. but you already know that. But mine is paying out as it should. One of the areas that was binding on mine was the rod that conneced the payout rocker to the lower lever that actuated the win ball release. That rod 'rubbed' on the nail/bushing that the "I don't know how it works" lever is held on with as it had been bent previously. A little work with my pliers and it pays out like it should.

Wiggle the lower lever on the payout rocker mech and see if you can see where it is binding. If you move the 'catch' to the right, the payout rocker should move freely.

Hope this helps! I know your photos have helped me!
