OK. This newby has his 50 cent rol a top working pretty good. However, when I hit the 3 mint bars it pays 20 coins but not from the jackpot. I thought the jackpot dumped on the 3 mint bars? What am I missing in this machine operations?
Thanks,
Steve

I need to see pics, but I am guessing it is because the J P payout is 20 coins and the JP window. So the slides are dropping ok but not triggering the JP release.

so do the slides dump 20 coins and the JP window dumps another 20 coins when it rolls 3 mint bars?

I see the release lever is on the J/P its the lever that sticks out on the left. What I do not see is the trip lever on the mech in front of the slides. Need another pic of the mech front. Have you greased and lubed the J/P mechanism? If not it wont work right even with all the parts.

the slides should dump 20 coins.
the jackpot will dump a random amount consisting of ever how many coins are in the jackpot.

Thanks guys. I will try to get a front pic tomorrow. I will also do a better job of lubing the jackpot mechanism.

Got working again. The jackpot pivot points were dry and stiff. Little oil and caressing and it starting popping open like it is supposed to. The actuator arm on the front of the slides was a little dry also but seems to be working now. Thanks for the help.
