okies... good to meet U to, virtually anyway.
The hopper situ is entirely upto urself. mine was £350 full with having a note acceptor fitted. I started it with £150 & then told the machine it was full. So all £1's over the 150 went into profit box :)
I would reccomend £150 for you too! It never went empty at any point. I won £140 1 day & transferred down to £100 so it wouldnt be too low.

Many places for parts. AMR are quite good. Ebay aint bad either. I have some BellFruit spares myself bud.

So is the following the correct way to set the float level to £150..

- Open the doors of the machine,
- Turn the refill key, press the switch down at profit box & empty the hopper with the start button,
- Now put £150 pound coins in the hopper & press the "Hopper Topped Up" switch,
- Turn/take out the refill key, and lock up the doors.

Now the float level is £150 because the machine thinks the hopper is full when it is only at £150, so wont fill higher than that because it actually thinks when there is £150 in it, there is £250 init?

Is this correct?
(If a machine could think, lol)

Yeah, i need to replace a few parts, well i dont need to because the parts arent parts that make the machine work, but i want to replace them.
- Tray that hopper sits in because the metal has been bent out as if the person that had it before me tried to slide the hopper tray out with using the release pull button and has bent it.
- The nose panel has got a big scratch in it.
- The bit behind the button that you press to get any change out the coin slot that may be stuck.

Basicly ur theory of how to make the machine think it's full & only put £150 is more or less spot on. U would only need to open doors & press the dump switch 1st if the machine already tells you that it thinks. . say theres £208 in the hopper & you know there isn't. So you would be going thru the 1st proceedure to kind of reset it (cos if you dump with no coins in hopper then machine knows it's empty.

In truth the machine itself will always play to it's programme regardless of how much money is contained in the hopper! the reason I suggested £150 is because that should be enough to cover wins etc over a long period.
The only thing that would mess that up is 'player profile' ive heard many times of people putting say £80 in & taking £210 out of a Deal in a pub somwhere. That machine in the pub should be capable of paying that £210 if it was full or nearly full before the player went on it. I dunno wot the full level is for pub groups. With them all/most having note acceptors I would say they contain the full £350. & places such as yates's & spoons top there machines up on a daily basis now. They think more profit for them I guess? who knows if that theory works... lol

Hi all, little bit about myself. I'm Scott from Essex,(loads of thought went into my name) been playing fruits for a few years now. Mainly round the London Essex Anglia way. Playing and drinking seem to be my full time job.
Hope to have a good old banter about fruits with you all.

I have learned newer and more effective things by means of your phorum site. One other thing I'd prefer to say is that newer computer system operating systems usually allow much more memory to get used, but they likewise demand more memory space simply to perform. If a person's computer can not handle more memory and also the newest software package requires that memory space increase, it might be the time to buy a new Personal computer. Thankswishes you all the best

Why does it still show they're online (Green dot) even when they're banned? Does a ban just mean they can still view but not post? There is always several spammy names every time you look to see whose on at the bottom of the page.
