Hello.
I'm very proud to present You an awesome restored hard-to-find electromechanical slot machine.
This entertainment 45kg puppy was created in the 1980 years by a german company named "Mercury" and it could be found inside cafe and game rooms.
With calm and patience I have found also the rare original programmer, manuals and spare parts.
What I have done:
- Cleaned and polished the whole machine, lubricated the moving parts;
- Replaced all the burned out bulbs;
- Replaced the backup battery;
- Eliminated the shorts created by a couple of gold-plated coins between some mainboard soldering contacts;
- Sort all the wires and locked with teflon strips;
- Seek and found 250 original pieces of the old italian "500 liras" and polished one by one;
- Seek and found the very rare original german programmer;
- Seek and found the original manuals and electronic schemes;
- Seek and found all the original spare parts.
The slot machine:
This is a "full of king":
This is a very rare "Royal Flush":
Inside the machine:
The rear of the front panel with the step-by-step motors:
A close shot of the inside part:
The coin device part with gold plated coins:
The audio device with loudspeaker and volume control:
The heart of the whole system, the mainboard:
The polished 500 liras:
Some of the original gold plated coins:
The rare alphanumeric original programmer:
The slot in action:
The 500 liras are used only to buy credits.
When important combinations appears (I.E.: poker of aces, straight flush, royal flush), an electromechanical device enables the delivery of the gold plated coins, compatible with the value of the bet.
Have fun
