Jennings Governor service manual

Postby Wille396 » Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:47 am

Hi, I have a Jennings Governor. Unfortunately it’s broken. The “arm” wil not go further downs as 10 cm and then it’s blocked. Maybe somebody knows what the problem is. A service manual could be a great help. Is there anybody who has a digital copy?

Sounds like it's jammed up?

Thank you for your quick response. I have found the video on YouTube too. It didn’t help me much. There are no coins in the mechanic. I found the coin detector wasn’t working properly. I have fixed it and then I found more problems.

The machine hasn’t been played for about 9 years. It hasn’t been serviced since it’s in our family and that’s 40 years. I think I will have to find somebody to service it for me since I don’t have a service manual.

Hi,

I have two Governors, one in mid-teardown and the other working. Try this link, it's for the Chief but the principles are the same. Unfortunately, the photos aren't too good for lubrication areas etc.

Hope this helps.
