Trade stimulators.


Hi I also collect slot machine,but my collection is small.I have just purchased a Groetchen Mercury 1cent machine.Mine is all orginal but dont work Iam close at getting it to work.Now my question in the back inside the machine is it suppose to have a air pump.I have no documation on this an am unable to find any manual.If so were can I purchase any help you can give.I am pretty sure it needs a air pump.I would rate it a 9.It also came with 67 tokens.Thank you for your time Eugene Pomianek Chicago,Illinois any photos or specs as if I can make the part.It does have the top an leather washer that I believe goes inside of the air pump

After seeing that there are no airpumps available I decided to make my own.Since I had the top piece of the airpump an leather washer I took a 2"piece of emt sanded the inside very smooth.Used 2 1/2 "6-32 threaded rod. 2 6-32 nuts for the top an wing nuts for the bottom.put it all togethere the trade works great.tried to take pictures but my pc crached when I install kodak share ware.just got it back up after several hours of down time an working inbetween the pump an pc.All take care that reads this

Gene:

I, for one, would like to see photos of your pump. If you want, email them to me and I will put them up on the forum.

Thanks

Dave

Here are some photos Gene sent me.
