    Default Just bought Pachinko - hoping to find out information

    Hi all. I am new to this, so please bare with me. I appreciate any and all comments!
    I recently purchased a Pachinko machine for my brother, and am hoping to find out more information on it so that I can find manuals on how to correctly play and operate it. I found this site and thought it might be my best bet, but apologize if this is not the right place I should be posting this.
    I would appreciate any leads on the model of the Pachinko and what manual or online instruction video might work best for this machine? I have attached pictures below.
    thank you so much for your time.

    And howdy from a growing up in Milwaukee guy .

    A early 2000's Sankyo Fever Chance (3 reels is a nice feature )

    It looks like you have a 120vac to 24vac transformer. That said before you plug it in Check each and every wire and connectors for any bare metal wires or any brown or burnt connectors .


    Did you get any shiny chrome balls for it and a tray to catch them on the bottom of the machine ?

    Thank you so much for responding and for the information! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it. I know my brother will love the gift, but I know he will love it even more if he can actually play it correctly so now that we know what model it is, I can tell what to look for in terms of online videos.
    thanks for the tip about exposed wires. The woman I purchased the Pachinko from, said it hadn’t been payed in a long while, but I’m hopeful it still works. Luckily, she did include many balls and a tray, so at least I have that going for me.
    thank you thank you thank you again for taking the time to reply.
    and Milwaukee is great! My brother went to college at Lawrence University, in Appleton, so we drove by Milwaukee every time we visited. Go Packers!

    Hi, i just typed a response but don’t know if it posted or not, so am going to write it again in case it didn’t. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my message and for the information. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it. It’s such a cool machine, so the last thing I would want to do is have my brother or myself break it while trying to play it. So with your help, we now know what to look for in terms of instructions. The woman I purchased the Pachinko from, said she had not played it in a long while, but I am hopeful it still works. She did include balls and a tray, so at least we have that going for us!
    thank you again for your help!

    and go packers!

    fill the top back hopper with most of the balls you got with it..

    place a hand full or two of ball in the top hopper in the front..

    power it up and give the handle a twist..

    and of course
