Title: Altering coin type on mechanical coin mech
Post by: jbshocks on May 16, 2012, 03:26:23 PM
I have an IGT M Model with a mechanical coin mech that takes quarters.  Is there any way to alter them to accept tokens?  I don't care if it became less sensitive and ended up taking quarters and tokens.

I have found out that the plastic coin mech is very easy to remove the magnet from. Then tokens go right through and you can alway put the magnet back in later if you wanted too. I didn't want to distroy a good metal coin acceptor to try to get that magnet out.
