A.C. Multibell

Postby jpw » Sun Oct 09, 2011 7:29 am

I just accquired an A.C. Multibell, it's a nickel machine and has a few problems, mainly the reels won't spin, although they did when I first got the machine. Any information anyone could provide on this particuler problem or this machine in general would be appricated.
Thanks,
Jack

Thanks for posting this! I saw that "Guide No. 2" is for the Jennings "Chief" machines........... so I ordered one to hopefully help me figure out why my Jackpot isn't working properly........

You're welcome. For more Club Chief info, be sure to check out Dave's excellent "How to Unjam a Jennings" videos on YouTube; those were very useful to me since I have a Chinese Front machine which is nearly identical to the one he demos.

I also found Slot Guide #3 useful when I was bringing up my 25 cent Caille Grand Prize. The booklet also answered a question I had on another thread here: there is a tiny ad reproduced on pg.9 which illustrates a Commander with twin-rail top trim. So I know my machine is definitely called a Caille Commander after all.

Where would we be without Dick Bueschel? Where are we without him? I often wonder what became of what must have been a library full of published material and records he must have collected over the years as primary source material for his books and articles. I doubt we'll ever see a writer and historian of his caliber in this hobby again.

Could I trouble any Multi-Bell owners to post pictures of the mechanism? I'm curious what's inside them.
