hello,
i have a half dollar super deluxe which needs a new award card. my machine pays out as follows:
1 cherry = 3 coins
2 cherry = 5 coins
3 oranges/bar = 7 coins
3 plums/bar = 12 coins
3 bells/bar = 18 coins
3 bell fruit gum = jackpot
my question is, is this correct for a 50 cent machine?
the only award cards i can find seem to pay out 3,5,11,13,18
my machine has a "desert spa" top logo so i am thinking it may have been a special set up just for that casino?
any comments appreciated

I think your slides may just be out of order--if you move the top one (6) down between the 2 cherry and the one above it, the payout would be correct with the common payout (and the card you quoted). You will have to make sure the bottom fingers line up--might have to bend one or two, but shouldn't be much.

thanks for the reply and advice.
i did what you said and changed the payout slides. i also changed the top two lower trip fingers, the ones below the jackpot finger.
and hey presto! payouts are now as they should be.
the guy i purchased the machine from had changed the award card payouts to match the payouts. seems strange how it ended up like that?
anyway, thanks again for the help

Yeah, some location could have swapped those slides to lower their percentage payout. Lord knows every machine I've ever seen from the deep south had bugs on the gears, so this is really no surprise. Glad I could help. Great machine--enjoy it! Jennings are the best mechanically by far.
