Picked up an IGT Fancy Fruit slot machine in non working condition.  I'm new to this, but did manage to get it to fire up and display a tilt-call attendant.   i could really use a repair manual for this machine to at least get started.  Also, is there a good place to get parts for this machine?  The belly glass is broken, and if I can get the machine to work I'd like to replace it.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Hi Parked, welcome to  :nlg-  I think you have an IGT Mechanical Slot, commonly referred to as a M Slot.  There's a manual for it in the file section at the moment, click on the "Submit New File" button above.  There's also a section for M Slot Reel Games that you may want to read.  These machines have a common problem with the "reel kickers".  There's a rubber roller on them that deteriorates with age. 

Parts for these older machines are sometimes hard to find, but one of our vendors may have the glass you need.  You can contact them directly, or post a wanted to buy (WTB) in the New Life Games Classifieds section.  Here's a picture of my machine shortly after I got it cleaned up and working.  It rewarded me for my effort  :96-

Thanks for the response.  I'll sift thru the manual over the next day or so.  I've gotten a "no spin 1" code, and I've checked the rollers and the ribbon connections, all seem good.....   any ideas on what could be the next logical thing to check?

If those appear to be good I'd try swapping #1 and #2 reel actuators around and see if the problem moves to reel two.  If so, you know the problem is in the actuator, if not then something else with reel 1.  Also check/clean the reel optic sensor.
