Re: Mills Novelty $.25 Machine Not Paying Correct. Rando BONUS Letters
PS .. You do realise (don't you?) that in the photos you've supplied that your mechanism isn't at rest. It has completed the reset but hasn't fired the play sequence yet.
Is it jammed or did you deliberately photograph it at that point?

Re: Mills Novelty $.25 Machine Not Paying Correct. Rando BONUS Letters
Hi and welcome to the site. It looks as if you are in America? I have both The Horse Head and the Hi-top Bonus. Let ask first, are you familiar with the workings of a non Bonus slot machine? I ask because if you're having to learn how a standard slot works as well as the Bonus variant on top, certai...

Re: You be the Judge
Apart from the excessive commissions currently being charged through live auctions, a couple of other ploys I've noticed. Here in Lincoln one of our auction houses has started a listing fee per lot. What they don't tell you when you submit your items is that they no longer accept a collection as one...

Re: You be the Judge
It pays to always observe/protect lots that you've won at a live auction. There are some really nasty individuals about. On the other hand at the Coventry Auction we regularly finished up at the end having had our heads stuck in the paperwork, only to look up at the bitter end and see a room devoid ...

How do you work out what's wrong ...?
Having tried everything that worked once before, I go to bed.
More often than not, when I wake in the morning I'm exhausted, have a headache and the answer.
What works for you?

I can take a photo of one in storage, but not until the weekend. And as JC pointed out they're not leaf stings, but stitches

Re: Rotamints
First check the rotary comb that trips the leaf springs during the final run down. There might be wear on the teeth.
Also clean the contacts on the leaf springs.
Do so with the power off. There are screw driver melting sparks running around in there.

Trouble finding a Continental eh? You are to be envied. Many of us stumbled on them by accident, not really understanding what a beast they are. Are you a fork lift operator? You need to be.

Re: Handle hard to pull
It's worth remembering that when you alter the dog and anvil you are affecting the depth of the reset cycle. Obviously if it's not intense enough the kick over point may not have allowed the mech to totally reset. Whereas if you overdo it the back tilting axle goes to its extent and stops before the...
