    Default My New 'old' machine ...

    Hi,

    Just got this machine working mechanically and found this site. Hoping I can get some help.
    Is there anything special about this machine?

    Is there something special that is supposed to happen when you get the jackpot in the middle? Seems to work the same as if you get any one of the others, about 10 balls. I would think since it is so hard to get it
    there, something special would happen?

    When is bell 'A' suppose to ring, the big one rings when you hit a jackpot, but haave not heard the little one yet?

    Is 'B' where the power supply is supposed to go?

    What are the extra wires 'C' suppose to go to, don’t see a third light, but maybe I am missing it?

    THANKS!!

    your machine was made before the fever rounds were being used.

    I would think thats normal payoffs.

    by the way "Nice vintage Machine"

    The 'A' bell probably rings if you dump the balls. In the first picture, you'll see a small hole about 2/3 way up the left side. This is for sticking a pin to empty the machine in a parlor. I would guess they have a different bell so the parlor people could differentiate between a win and someone emptying a machine. Not sure about the 'B' wires. The 'C' connection is your power connection. You can replace the bulbs with any voltage you like, then attach the appropriate power (say 9v).

    Also, on that last picture, where the 2 balls are above the rest, there is supposed to be a cover there to prevent them riding up like that.

    Getting a ball down the center usually opens up other tulips or other places to get a win. A closer pic of the center and just below it would help in answering.

    Wow, great thanks for the info!

    Plugged in a 9v to 'C' and the lights starting working! That was easy. I will put a meter on the B wires and see when they get juice to them.

    The cover must be missing, so once in a while the balls will pile up, I can make my own to fix that.

    Have some pins to straighten out as well, if you look at the first pic you can see a ball stuck.

    I will test out the pin-dump when I get a chance.

    Now that it is all working, I will spend more time cleaning it all up.

    Yeah, if I get it in the center, a tulip opens. I just thought you might bet double win or something. I will take a pic to show you guys to be sure.

    Fever round?

    THANKS!!
