Help me get more info for my childhood pachinko machine

[Mopey]

Hello there!

I just inherited this machine from my grandfather, it was up in his house through the 90s and 2000s. It's been in a barn for the past decade and now that I have it, I don't know what the hell I'm looking at. I looked through some past threads and though Ive been able to find similar machines, nothing that fits the bill 100%. I'd take any knowledge anyone is willing to tell me or any advice on what my first steps should be to get this thing running again.

Wow an early Kyoraku with electric shooter. I would say that's a rare machine. Not to mean it's super valuable. But more of a transition model. Seems to have rival ninjas in the centre feature.

before loading balls make sure to push the plunger up to reset the jackpot and seat the channel cover which seems a little off
good luck 👍🏼

You may have a ball trapped where I put the arrow
That long bar behind the plastic needs to be in a higher position and that will reset the payout
follow it up it will make sense
don’t force anything there are built in breaks you will have to release

like this.. see the paper clip gizmo lift that up while releasing the brakes up near the payout until jam is cleared

Yours has a electric shooter so be careful around it otherwise your machine has the same internal parts 3073E979-407D-41A3-A486-AE008596196A.jpeg the jackpot is down and machine is jammed

Well, I'm excited now. I'm shocked it seems it hasn't been mess with much because my grandfather was an electrician, I always assumed he maybe rewired and changed some things. Anyways, thanks you all. I'm sure ill be back to figure some things out!
