Title: Small Dollar Slots or conversions?
Post by: quasimodem on June 15, 2012, 07:26:05 PM
Not sure if this is the correct place, if not please move. But i am looking for either a kit to convert my Bally EM or my IGT S2000 to small dollars (SBA & golden) or a machine already setup to take them?

any ideas as to where to look?

Thanks in advance
QM

Quarter stuff won't? Or does the pin wheel hold you out?

quarter coin compartitor will work, you need a different shelf wheel and a different coin head

i just filed a quarter head on mine. not sure how well a 50 cent shelf wheel will work i actually got an sba shelf wheel

You should be able to open up the tabs on the cradle of a 25 cent mechanical acceptor to fit your small dollar.  Just bend that brass outward until the coin fits.  Two hacksaw blades side by side should allow you to fairly easily open up the coin head, also.
