Hi Forum
Just saw this Mills escalator on ebay
It has 2 coin deflectors?
Can someone tell me what they are for?
Thanks

Lever B prevents the second coin from dropping down and lever A I believe would direct the next coin out to the coin return

LEVER "B" DOES HOLD A SECOND COIN FROM DROPPING WILE THE FIRST COIN IS IN PLAY THAN ONCE THE PLAY ENDS LEVER "B" WILL LET THE COIN DROP IN PLACE TO START AN OTHER PLAY, LEVER "A" WILL RETURN YOUR COIN IF THE FRONT VENDER IS OUT OF MINTS, THE COIN WILL RETURN TO THE PLAYER IN TO THE COIN CATCH NEXT TO THE COIN ENTRY
