seeburg HF100G problem

hi
i picked up a Seeburg select-o-matic 100 model HF100G. The problem i am having (other than not knowing anything about jukeboxes) is with the mechanism section. the mechanism doesn't move. when i got this unit, the mechanism was located all the way to the left in front of the first physical record and that is still where it is located today. i can get it to select the first record. that's all i can get it to do though. the mechanism will select the record, plays it then recycles the same first record and will not select any other records. (i am pretty sure the jukebox is a select-o-matic 100 and not a select-o-matic 1). LOL. The question i have for any member knowledgeable with the old seeburg tube unit is as follows. Is this a fairly common problem with a documented solution and/or easy to repair. Or is this something i am going to regret getting involved in. My area of knowledge is primarily slots although i am comfortable and competent working on mechanical equipment. Also does anyone have or know where i can get the service manual, operator guide and/or restoration book for this Seeburg HF100G model jukebox?
 THANKS FOR ANY HELP

Is it playing the same record  over and over again? if so it sounds like the pin bank is not cancelling the record and you may have to cancell the pin manualy until the cancelling solenoid pushes the pin back. With the record playing try rejecting the record with the reject button on the back of the machine and see if the mechanism scans to the right then. if so kill the power with the mechanism moved to the right.  Then reach under the pin bank near the first record and make sure all the pins are pushed inward this is the cancel position. The 100 pins run the length of the record tray underneath it on the pin bank. It could very well have some stuck gears in the mechanism as suggested earlier if it has been sitting awhile too.

Jump over to the jukebox forum at www.phonoland.com and talk to Ron Rich. He is THE Seeburg expert.
