Re: Aristocrat Olympic Take Ten

I also have a Take10 bandit disguised as 'Lucky Chance'. As you mention in your posts, I can activate the '10 bonus pulls' feature manually but have never seen the bandit activate the feature automatically. Do you know which winning lines activate it? Also, when bonus feature is active there doesn't...

The front of the bandit can be viewed here:

I suspect that this may not be the original appearance of the bandit.

Re: Reels not spinning on Aristocrat Olympic 'Lucky Chance'

The kicker does appear to be spring loaded.

A drop of lubricant on the pivot and I have a working bandit. :D :D :D

Thanks once again to everyone for all your help with this.

Re: Reels not spinning on Aristocrat Olympic 'Lucky Chance'

The kicker is located on right, as you view the mech from the front. It's easy to spot, as it engages the teeth on all three payout discs. Cycle the mech and look from the front - you should see the kicker come towards you, lock into the payout disc slots and then move quickly away from you as the ...

Re: Reels not spinning on Aristocrat Olympic 'Lucky Chance'

After a drop of lubricant, the V now appears to be moving properly.

If I put coin in, pull the arm, stop the fan using the fan stop, spin all 3 reels by hand, restart the fan, the bandit appears to work OK.

Just need to locate the bit that is supposed to start the reels spinning automatically.

Re: Reels not spinning on Aristocrat Olympic 'Lucky Chance'

What might this lever (circled) be for?
It can be pulled out about 1cm.
Could it be for releasing stuck coins?

Re: Reels not spinning on Aristocrat Olympic 'Lucky Chance'

When the arm is pulled down almost to the point of activating the mechanism, the fingers are clear of the payout discs and all three reels can be turned manually. What is the purpose of the V shaped bit of metal in this picture? (There is a spring attached to the left hand vertical of the V). This a...

Re: Reels not spinning on Aristocrat Olympic 'Lucky Chance'

Some pictures of the bandit. http://www.flickr.com/photos/93136305@N06/ The 3 reels do move up very slightly as the arm is pulled down. The red strip spins. The 3 arms move out of the cogs as the arm is pulled down and go back into their cogs one at a time. The center and right reels can be rotated ...
