    Before i thought that you could either up the whole front door or just the top, but i didnt know you could open just the part that holds the winning balls.

    Oh, OK... yep, you can open the bottom area on most machines after opening the front door. Great for cleaning, clearing a jam, or whatever.

    Here is a picture of the front door opened with the lower ball return area swung open below that as well.

    When I was helping Dodc2 fix his Star Wars, I showed him how to open the bottom door, he didn't know about it.

    That's where we found peanuts jamming the ball tracks.

    WOW ! Talk about good timing ! Thanks for posting that. I checked my Taiyo Gachinko and sure enough there the volume control is ! I was just about ready to add a a couple of volume controls. That made quite a difference!

    Thanks again johntofva! I wonder if other pachinkos hide their volume controls in the same area?

    I didn't find out until I got my second pachinko.

    I always say to myself that it looks like the middle part of my Godzilla should open. I have no idea how though. Turning the key to the right allows you to swing the whole machine out. Turning it to the left opens the cell window door. How do you open the other door?

    (Ask Mark if you don't believe me.)

    Yeah, the parlors need to have that to be able to unjam the inside hopper without incoveniencing players by opening up the whole machine.
