Slow Gummed-Up Mills Pay Slides

This is what’s happening. These two coins are stuck tight against each other. See attached pic.

Can someone tell me if this pay slide order for the master and four bronze payout slides is correct for a Mills Black Cherry? The numbers correspond to how many coins the slide holds. My machine has 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 -4

I’m thinking it should be bottom to top 2 - 3 - 5 - 4 - 4

I have a situation where two horizontal payout finger need to be moved release one slide. Is this normal? Or do I have bent fingers? In other words, does each one horizontal payout finger correspond to one slide, no exceptions?

Yes, I think you're correct, based on photos of machines (from my slot books), or machines in my collection, the payout slide order should be: bottom to top 2 - 3 - 5 - 4 - 4.

As far as your other question, each one horizontal payout finger should correspond to one slide, based on my experience. So you may have bent lower payout fingers, which I've encountered in my restorations.

Thanks for the advice. I’ll check those fingers more closely.
