Bally's Slot Machine

[tkaz]

Picked this slot machine up today, well barely picked it up it's so heavy!  Guy selling it was moving and said it wasn't working, so he wanted $150 for it.  I went to take a look and found the coin counting microswitch needed adjustment, then it was up a running great.  Neat machine, I didn't really have it on my radar to own one, but we've had fun playing the slots so far. 

Anybody have any info on it?  Mostly how to pull out the coin hopper from the inside, the guy said there's a way to do it, but I haven't figured it out yet.

Check w/ RayG.  I know he's gotten a few back to life

Nice addition

I got it, went against most intuition, but the yank really hard method is how it comes out

Nice machine!   The Bally's EM are the way to go, they will run forever. what's the model #? I may have a manual or know where to find one.

Do you know if anyone is selling parts for these?  The rubber coin alignment 'star' in the quarter payout wheel had changed states from a solid to a liquid, junking up all the quarters.  It's been working fine without it, but I'd like to pick one up if they are available.

Hi  tkaz,
I would check out newlifegames.com its a forum on slots, they got a classified section and U can list a wtb
for the part and some vendors that carry almost anything U would need for old and new slots. I also meet some helpful folks on that site as well . Worst case I know a forum member that specializes in n Bally EM slots
