New (to me) PE+ video poker game

[Jimise]

Hello all, Just thought I would share a couple of pics of my new poker machine.
It is in great shape! Only cost 50 bucks. The coin comparator, and the bill acceptor did not work,
But got it home and took them out , Cleaned them up, (there was an old dollar stuck in the bill acceptor)
Put them back in, and she is up and running!  This is my sons new favorite game!
Plus the bonus, there was $12.50 in quarters left in the machine!  Heck of a deal!!

Thanks everyone, Jim.............

Not a bad deal for $36.50 if you count the dollar in the BV and the quarters. Looks like you've got a young degenerate gambler there

Awesome Deal!!!!   And they even left that much in the machine!!! More  

Those are nice machines.. I really love slant tops for comfort when playing poker for hours and hours and hours!  

I also love seeing the future NLGers in training!!! (AKA young degenerate gambler!!!) I love letting the kids play my machines when the come over. They have such a great time! (I stay single so I can have TOYS!! I am talking getting my fix of what I call OPK.... Other People's Kids, they can come over and have a good time and play, but they get to go back to their parents!  )

You gonna have no bribe the wife to bring it inside?

jimise, you're awfully young to be fixing machines!    (... It's nice to see your son enjoying the game. )

How can you go wrong for $36.50? I agree with with CH , it's always fun to have Other People's Kids come over to play. They have fun, the machines get enjoyed, and I don't have to be a parent.

Thanks for posting.

That is until the little s 's hit the jackpot in 5 minutes that you have tried to get for 5 years!  (Or they hit the cashout button you made them promise not to touch!!! And you didn't disable the switch either! ) Seriously just joking here I enjoy watching their excitement, but its like being in Vegas and pumping hundeds of dollars into a machine, getting up and leaving, looking back and hearing Granny who took your place on that machine yelling "I WON I WON, AND I ONLY PUT IN 5 DOLLARS!!!!!

Get your fill of OPK, and then send them on their way!

Wow-ee, congrats Jim on your steal of a deal!

There's plenty of knowledge here about the PE+ if you ever run into problems or have questions.  Nice find on your machine!

Thanks for the comments!  That is so funny about the payout button  That is exactly what happened! (It is disconnected now  ) Of course there was not enough quarters in it to payoff. My PLAN is to bring the machine inside this weekend.  Boy these things are heavy!  And im glad my son likes dads poker game, It keeps him off the playstation game for a while! 

Thanks everybody!  Jim..........

You can take the monitor out before you move it, which will help lighten the load.  Unplug the machine, then open the main door (hatch) all the way, and on either side of the monitor there should be two metal cutouts for your hands.  Lift it straight out (at the same angle it's installed in) and set it aside, being careful not to set it down on its connector or anything else that can break off.  Also, keep kids/pets away from it as there can be some high voltage present even with it out of the machine.  Then, move your machine to its final location and slide the monitor back in before plugging the machine back in.

That sounds like a great idea!  So there are no connections to unplug? It just pulls out?

Thanks for the tip!   Jim.........

It (the monitor chassis) has a connector that mates to the one fixed in the machine just like the kind of connectors that slot machine hoppers have. They have a locating pin to help it slip into place. Just go nice and easy, and you should not have to force anything. There is guide hardware on the chassis to help you to easily put it back in. I was surprised the first time, but it was designed for ease of extraction/insertion. This is also another reason that I recommend that if you are transporting machine, (especially uprights if you have to put them on their back) that you carefully take the monitors out and pack them safely for transport. Other wise you can risk breaking the neck board or yoke on the back of the tube if it bounces out of place when in that position. Plus it makes it much lighter to load and unload. I do the same thing with the hopper if I have to move a machine that way.

Well Captain, Thanks for the tip! The monitor pulled right out! I also took out the the door in the front, the hopper, the coin comparator assy?I also un bolted the top of the machine and took it off. Much easier to move now! Plus I can clean the inside better now!     Thanks again!   Jim.....

Actually KNAGL ^^^^^ was the first to post that idea, I just expanded upon the suggestion answering your follow up question.

Glad that it worked out for you and you (or should I say your son ) are enjoying your new toy!!
