Hi just wanted to ask if you now how to test out my hopper it is the same one as your one I am not sure how to test it as it is not paying out thank you
Counters reveal that payout rate is around 86.9% (coins in to coins out). What amazes me is that this mechanisms processed almost 7 millions coins and still work! Do they get rebuidlds over time? I believe that processing that amount of coins, sometimes dirty, sometimes damaged, handled one by one may wear out mechanisms that must be precise enough to catch any counterfeit ones and keep accepting good ones.
mibars Hi there. The thing initially needed tuning; from memory bending the bars in the top of the machine slightly. The mechanisim also was soaked in oil which no doubt helped it survive the decades. When I had it it didn't get much use but was also in fairly good nick; any *real* servicing was done prior to my ownership. Nice to know it had a productive life! :) Interestingly, if this machine is out of tune it will fail in the players favour; good incentive for the owners to keep them tuned no doubt. ;) Cheers... Clark
Does anyone know the exact model of this as I’m trying to find some information on the electrical side of them all I can find is just mechanical types!
If you bring it around to my place, I can have a look at it. ;) I can't really suggest anything as I sold my one, I just wanted to document it (this video) before it went. Maybe go nuts with oil? Apologies... Clark
Hi. How does the handle actually spin the wheels, is each wheel spring loaded? I know each wheel spins independently if so, then how does each wheel spin with its associated payout disk at same speed to get a winning line and activate payout fingers? Thanks in advance.

Hi there.
It was inspected / tested 21-Sept-1979 so I guess it was manufactured before then.

do you know the year and brand of that i have one the same
Do you still have the slot machine? If so, any chance you could take a photo of the wiring on the back of the hopper on the plug and the socket.
Sorry Scotty, sold it.
Cheers... Clark
@@Clark-Mills hello I have aquired one of these and am unsure on what to sell it for. Can you please give me advice on what I should list ot for?
Hi Mary scott I have a machine the same as this do you still have yours I’m trying to get mine working too! maybe we share some information we have 👌🏻
Hideous card symbols. Is that what pokeys look like these days?
Bring back the PROPER card symbols.
And a hopper payout! Ye Gods!
