Title: Handle Pulls Without Credit Post by: DoubleZero on September 06, 2013, 03:20:02 PM When I select the credit and pull the handle, the reels will spin just fine. However, I'm also able to pull the handle without selecting any credits (reels don't spin though). Might this be indicative of a failing handle mechanism or is there a simple adjustment I can make?

Title: Re: Handle Pulls Without Credit Post by: cowboygames on September 06, 2013, 04:01:45 PM You'll need to remove it to find out. Could be bad, stuck, melted, out of place etc. Put eyes on it and see what it looks like

Title: Re: Handle Pulls Without Credit Post by: cowboygames on September 13, 2013, 11:51:56 PM No lube. Wire brush or steel wool till it slides smoothly. Check the inside of the coil to make sure it's not distorted from heat also. If it is, buy a new one. Also, make sure the spring that pushes the ram back is in place and in good shape

I got her all cleaned up and stretched out the piston's spring just a bit. Reinstalled and things are back to normal. Thanks again. K+4U!!
