    I assume you meant tokens?? these are token only for legal purposes.

    It may just need to do a "Hard Reset".

    Here's the steps. (Take your time and make sure you do it order, or the machine won't reset.)

    Sometimes it takes a couple tries with the reset process. You should hear the token mechanism make a click sound indicating all went well in the end of a reset. Take your time and follow the script by not skipping a step. If none of that works out then keep asking questions.

    By the way, welcome to the group!

    Does the machine not let reset if the hopper is empty?

    I would think that it should not mater if the hopper is empty as far as resetting a machine. But if the machine was in the middle of paying out tokens and ran out then it could be stuck in a mode of expecting to finish paying out the remaining tokens. I think that a reset would over ride that as well but I can't recall having such a scenario.

    Even if your hopper ran dry during any size of a payout then you should have a error code of some kind referring to this. Some would display "HE" on the front for hopper empty or another number/letter code on the machine front panel.

    Here are some thoughts about an eBay supplier that many of us have used.
    http://www.pachitalk.com/forums/vend...-feedback.html

    I recommend getting 1000 tokens if able but at least start with 500. When you hit a jackpot round you will be moving tokens back and forth to/from the inside more often with 500 or less but it can be managed.

    Can you use anything but tokens... Is there a way to turn on free play?

    If I understand this correctly some machines are capable to be wired with a device that will allow you to play without putting in tokens. I'm not sure about the operation of the payout side after your credits reach the limit of 50. I have only seen them in the Yahoo Auction pages in Japan. I'd guess the final prices to run $30-$50 USD to get one stateside from Japan. The following link shows many of them referred to as "coin unnecessary". I've looked thru a few hundred but didn't see your machine listed. Give it look once and a while, you might find one. I use Google Chrome with auto translate turned on to read these pages. Use caution as sometimes information is lost in translation.
