    Hey bro I need help with the strength of the claw machine. Could it be a bad recoil on the claw? Because the claw adjustment is set to high on the machine but still grabs weak.

    Is there a video for adjusting the claw to hang on to the prizes tighter or more loose?

    • @MattyMosArcade

      Adjusting claw strength. Ive gone over it before, but it wasn’t the subject of the video. Usually there are three different potentiometers you can adjust, but it might be on a display screen newer game.

      @MattyMosArcade switch on the gantry you mean because I have a error code 04 and I read somewhere that my be caused by a short on the gantry and that the prize sensor light is still lit

    • @MattyMosArcade
      @MattyMosArcade  3 місяці тому

      @PIDURULZ yes. Check the connection of the big serial plug for the gantry. It probably came loose somewhere along the line. Might have to chase it all the way back.

      I'd check the switches and voltages, also make sure the string isn't getting tangled. It could be a board issue though.

      Definitely check the switches first. make sure your claw is strung up correctly also.
      when you hit the button to drop the claw does it just close and not drop?

    Hello I'm new here.. I just bought my wife a claw machine today. Its called the treasure chest. When they delivered it they ran it couple times and one of the times the claw wouldn't drop the prize.. he said the ball was to big..we deflated the ball some and he left... well the claw still wont drop the prize every time it stays clamped closed. Then we have to get the prize unstuck.. it happens every few times ... what could be wrong bc we had the guy come back and he couldn't figure it out. Any ideas...please help...wife not happy lol

    • @MattyMosArcade
      @MattyMosArcade  4 роки тому

      If the prizes arent too big, is the claw staying locked closed? Probably a stuck switch, but could be a bad board.

      @@MattyMosArcade sometimes when you pick a prize up and take it to the prize chute it won't drop the ball and sometimes only two claws have the object while the third claw remains floppy with hardly any contact on the ball.

    how do you slow down the movement

    • @MattyMosArcade
      @MattyMosArcade  4 роки тому

      Do you mean left and right or drop speed? I think you can adjust the drop speed in some games, but I think directional movement is at a fixed speed. That is typical, but I'm sure there are exceptions. Try googling the name of the game and manufacturer for a service manual.

    Great videos! I did a home build with the same kit, but can’t get the gantry to function correctly. I keep getting a 21 error code (Claw slightly loses tension, then completely unravels when you drop the claw). This has happened with two different gantries I purchased. I tested the up and down limit switches, and they are fine. Any ideas for a fix? You have the most videos for this kit and they are greatly appreciated!

      This sounds like it might be a board problem. Check your voltages from the power supply, to be sure everything is ok. Sounds like you have eliminated a lot of other things it could be.

      I sent my board back to Holland Computers and they tested and confirmed it’s good. Could the 21 error code be attributed to the coin mech. in some way?
