Bryans Fruit Bowl instructions needed
Bryans Fruit Bowl instructions needed
So today I bought my first machine in a year the Bryans Fruitbowl as seen on the Salesroom. Was local to me and I was able to view, a true barn find with a pile of mouse items inside. When I got home I managed to get the cash drawer open to find a huge stash of old chestnuts, the mouse must have carried every one through the payout tray, up the cash tube through a small hole to the cashbox and stored on top of a pile of 1500 pennies.......he must of died before eating them from exhaustion as most were uneaten
Amazingly machine is solid, complete and works although needs a clean and lube and polish. One thing that is missing is the instruction sheet as shown below. If anyone has a machine and whenever you get a chance, would be great to get a copy of one.......much appreciated....also anyone know where the serial number is located on the mechanism, I cannot find anywhere

Re: Bryans Fruitbowl Instructions Needed
Well done on a good buy, and all those free pennies and nuts! I did think the estimate was a bit optimistic!

Thank you gentlemen
Odd as there is no number on the bar on mine that I can see. This is the same position on clocks as well.

Tree, could that bar have been taken off and replaced backwards to hide number?
Re: Bryans Fruit Bowl instructions needed
I found a number, tiny and on the top end of one of the support posts, but the frame number does not match the cabinet which 106, and this is 162. I guess a mix match, but both earlier numbers. The size is similar to what is stamped in front casting.
Re: Bryans Fruit Bowl instructions needed
Well all cleaned up, repairs done (wood, locks etc) and running perfectly, I have to admit although they are pretty much the same as the Clock, there is something memorising about the domed dish spinning
Re: Bryans Fruit Bowl instructions needed
Well done tf, nice tidy machine. Spinning time seems quick, can that be controlled?
