Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: Slapshot42 on November 25, 2012, 10:37:23 pm Try to shoot them with PB blaster and have the sit overnight. You could just drill the screws out? :biggrin:
But yes Tim is correct there is a very small screw that secures the flapper in place in can be removed with a small allen wrench. Sounds like your screws are seized in the secure the coin mechanism cover. Jared Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: MoonDawg on November 25, 2012, 11:34:49 pm Remove coin drawer
Remove 2 screws LIFT coin box cover off coin tower. Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: mack65az on November 26, 2012, 07:07:42 am Flapper was out as well. Two screws removed behind coin box and on tower cover. Tried to pull the chrome cover up, but it definitely feels like it's still connected to something.
Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: MoonDawg on November 26, 2012, 09:28:44 am A rubber mallet should work or place a piece of wood under it and hammer it upward. Someone may have tried to pry it off and bent it.
Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: Slider-Bob on November 26, 2012, 09:58:30 am I took a tall boy off a 55 this weekend and there were 3 screws behind the cash drawer holding it on the side of the slider.
Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: mack65az on November 27, 2012, 05:21:03 pm I can pull it up about 1/2" and that's it. Something connected to the hood or at least it feels that way. I'll be a little more forcefull and hope for the best.
Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: MoonDawg on November 27, 2012, 06:47:26 pm It's only supposed to lift 1/2" to unlatch it, then it pulls off horizontally.

Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: mack65az on November 27, 2012, 09:50:57 pm Anyone have a picture with the hood off? The hood is hooked or caught on something. Correction on the 1/2", the hood moves up maybe 1/4" and only on the one side. Rubber mallet failed, prying failed. I don't want to damage it. The Glasco coin mech and the other style came off easily on my other units. This one is trying my patience.
Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: Slider-Bob on November 27, 2012, 10:44:28 pm I can't see a picture either. I get 'error 404 - attachment not found' when clicking on the jpg.
Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: johnieG on November 28, 2012, 05:45:28 am Jim's working on the Attachment bug regarding the missing posted pictures. I tried to post a pic' & the server report that it was "too large" no matter how small I made it...It may also report that it took "too long" to to attach it, anyway Jim's on it.
External links / hyperlinks to off-site pictures work, it's affecting uploaded attachments to the site. Title: Re: How do I remove this thing? Ideal 55 Post by: mack65az on December 03, 2012, 08:42:10 pm Two screws behind the coin drawer. Once I did that, I was able to split the box at that point. Then the screws for the hood were removed from the inside and the remaining coin mech. panel from the machine itself. Too easy. Thanks for everyone's help. This isn't exactly rocket science, but I did my best to treat it that way. Coin mech done, on and in the Phoenix showroom.
