Here you go. I point out the potential problem in the last two.

Here is what one of mine looks like. There is a guide that will hold the wire in place over to the shooter.

this picture is great... EXCEPT the rod that comes over from the lower tray is for over fill... it need to be moved to the other side of the plastic stub that is attached to the shooter...

when the lower tray is filled with balls (over filled to be exact) the balls push one a plunger... that plunger pushes the rod out.. that rod pushes the plastic swing arm "ball lifter to the shooter) over so the shooter will not load more balls.. once the player removes balls from the lower tray the weight of the balls is shifted at the shooter will work again...

now all this is well and good but is not really needed in home use.. if the original poster's machine were mine i would probably cut the wire as short and possible and leave it be..

my 2 (cents) Pachinko balls

peteybob.. move the wire to the other side of of the plastic stud.. the wire should not move when the shooter is puled.. in its current position you run the risk of breaking the shooter swing arm (ball lifter)

Thanks Mopar, I did not know that. I had just picked up this machine a week ago and it was handy for the picture.
So through all this, I learned a few things. Thanks!!

Tazo, the wire is still level straight across. The far left end of it lays to the inside/right side of the thin plastic peg.

looks like a great machine.. needs some minor adjustments but, ill be if ya loaded it with balls.. reset the jackpot mech, it would play as is

So that rod in Peteybob's picture is not aligned correctly? I'm having trouble visualizing the correct alignment as you describe. But it's not really needed? Well that makes my job easier. I won't cut it, but will see if I can disconnect and save it. Just in case.

Thank you you all for the help! Can't wait for the balls to arrive so I can try this out.
