Where to start, my first machine....

11 November 2019 - 09:38 AM

Hi,



What did I just buy? :)



My background is in older Bally EM slots, and I've also done a lot of work fixing and restoring electronic pinball machines, and I decided I wanted to have a play around with a more modern fruit machine.



So I found this not far away on Ebay and I think the price was OK... It's a Club Casino Crazy



https://www.ebay.co....=p2047675.l2557



Like the Bally slots and pinball machines, I want to dig in and understand it better. So I paid my annual subs here, hope someone can help with the first dumb questions!



I think this is a JPM machine, although I've also found reference to Crystal (I didn't pick it up yet). Which is it?

Is a manual and/or schematics available somewhere, either as paper or to download?

Common things to check/fix? For example I know a lot of machines have a battery on the MPU, that's the same with pinball and removing to a remote battery pack is a good idea?

It has a £250 jackpot. How much money should be in the machine to make it worth playing?

The coin mech will need updating to the new £1 etc, is that something I can do or should I send the mech off to someone?



Just trying to get myself some grounding before I start my fruit machine journey.



thanks for any help

Mark
