This is very similar to the compulsory skill on a Paces Reels console I have.The linkage is missing form the solonoid that interacts with the indexing bar at the very bottom of the mech.
But simply it stops the clock winding down further than the third click thus preventing a payout.
if you got in winning line, you would pulse the solonoid via the weight of the ball in the skill field.
The solonoid would pull in allowing the 4th and 5th click and thus complete the pay out!
