Beromat in Sterling case

[geoff]

Hi,
I have a Beromat machine in Sterling case and have a few questions....
One of the replacement fruit reel covers has come off. How do I know which position to put it on?
The lower cabinet door is missing. Can anyone send me some photos of theirs please?
There is a spring on the arm mech which is disconnected. Where does it go and does it make the machine work on a pay per play please?

Hello Geoff,

So firstly the spring attaches to the same point as the other spring. See below:

Next the reel strips alignment. Probably easier to take the mechanism out, but on the below picture the payout discs are between each reel. Yours may be made of metal (see marked in red below). The deepest grooves are the bells. There is a lever that drops into these that determines the award. So I believe you only have one bell on the middle reel (you need to check). As such, line up the left and right reels so the bell is on the win line, then move the middle reel so the groove matches the other two in depth where the lever drops into them. That will be where the bell will be on the win line at the front.

See below what I believe to be a cash box for one of these I happen to have. I have also shared a picture of a complete machine, not mine. Don’t ask me why I happen to have this kicking around for years as never owned a Sterling.

The corner is cutout as the arcade where it was used probably had coins dropping into a cash box in a stand, very common….

Many thanks for your reply. I can see where I'm going from here now. Do the bottom trays come up for sale very often as not sure if I can fabricate one similar to the original? Many thanks.

Also I can't see on the tray where the coins payout. I can see the chute, but how does a coin get through to the front of the drawer?

There is a ruddy great hole in the front to the cash tray

You can have this one if needed…..stick an ad on site, as will be cheap and I can respond then.

Ok , many thanks will see if I can get a ad on here !!

Can't post ad on here as don't want to use my card to pay , are you on this page on FB ?
