I have seen a very small spring mounted so it just barely touches the fan blade and it hitting the blades lightly, slows it down.
@ OldReno .... have you heard of this before?

Thanks CVs, slowing down the fan blade on the clock makes sense in my head I just need a visual on how that spring set up goes.

I do recall at one time a retrofit that was a spring that would stop the fan blades after the last reel indexed.  This was to keep cheaters from keeping the fan spinning and supposedly allowing them to manipulate the reels.  I tried but could never manipulate the reels.  Never had anyone explain that to me.
One way to slow the clock is to bend slightly the ends of the fan blades to make a scoop.  Another way is to put weights on the end of the fan blades.  You might also consider putting an extension on the large spring to lengthen it and thus cut down on it's tension.

The Karma Storm is just a way that we can show other members thanks for helping me out. Then you would leave that person a positive karma.

Here is a picture of my Bally 785-AA clock side of the reel mech. It shows the clock I had mentioned. It touches the fan only enough to slow the spin just a little.
The plate that is added on the clock might be for something else as well but I dont know. It is slotted for adjustment forward and back.

That's a cool custom job there or did it come like that? Is there any noise from the fan hitting that pin?

Interesting.  Haven't seen anything like that before.
Is it noisy?

Not really ... I will try to make a video and post it on YouTube with a link if you want to see it in action .... but not that much to see. We can figure out what it looks like.
