I had never gotten to the bottom of its purpose. Another slotty mate explained that if you pull it out it dumps the contents of the pay out tube out of the bottom of the machine and through a hole and into your hand (if you put it there). Pondering no further as to why an operator should want that ...

Definitely a buyer, never sold a machine at auction but may put a couple in (or an old cash register!)

It’s bloody awful, Eric Cantona on the reel strips means it’s from after 1992 when he signed for them.

Hi Dirk,

That’s great, it answers my question perfectly.

Thanks

Ok guys, I need some help here. The mechanism on my clock works well and I'm reassembling the hands as Derek has instructed but to align the hands I need help working out how the jackpot works. If you look at the photo below, as I understand it the jackpot is activated when Lever C drops off its sup...

That's my next purchase if I can find one

Surely the paintwork will identify it, provided your original listing can be compared to the latest one.

Jeremy, message me your e mail and I’ll send one to you. I scanned and re drew the Union Jack on my BDR.

Are you suggesting there’s been some sort of skullduggery in the past ?

Cleared the cache and history on my iPad but it’s still zooming in when I change screens.

What do people usually do for their machines regarding replacement back flashes etc? Do you print it on good quality paper/card? Laminate it ?

I have downloaded the 12 win clockface from resources.

All advice welcome.

I’d try Henry Powell, he has loads of spares. I bought a coin mechanism and a bottom door off him for these machines.

They’re struggling to take a photo that’s in focus!

The words are about 5mm x 10mm, they should have been fitted across the whole piece of plastic !

That’s who made it !

I found a company that makes plastic signs, but they didn’t quite understand what I ordered. The good news is they’re remaking it.
