    Default Picked up this Sankyo today

    Hello everyone. My name is Eric and I live in Southwest Virginia.

    I picked this up today for $30 and don’t really know anything about it. The guy said it didn’t work and it was duuUUUuuuusssstttttyyyyy. It looked in pretty good shape mechanically and the top ball tray(don’t know what it’s called) in the back has a crack. This is my first machine but after about 15 minutes poking around I discovered it didn’t work because the little door that is connected to that same top tray had popped out of its track so the door was always closed. Popped it back in and now it works. Well balls shoot now. Not sure about everything else.

    I look forward to the years of info on here to help me clean this thing up and get it in great working condition.

    also be careful with all those rusty balls, they track dirt on the play field and are rough and abrasive

    clean them or trash them please
