All quarter conversions are done at the owner's risk. We offer this instruction manual as a benefit of doing business with us.  We will not support errors and damage done to the slot machine by a failed conversion.  All machines leave our work shop working perfectly!  We know that because we work on and test each machine intensively before it leaves our shop.   We have only listed the brands below because we have had success in their conversion. Any damage caused by a failed conversion is the owner's responsibility.  Universal, Aruze, Macy, Mizuho, Electrocoin, Yamasa, Olympia, Heiwa, Diado machines can be successfully converted to quarters.

Yamasa Conversion


Remove Coin MechanismpadUnplug wires going to coin mechanism and remove coin mechanism by loosening screw at position "B" and rotating out

Press in on the part labeled "A"padPress in on the item marked "A" and try to locate where the coin rolls through the mechanism. It is normally right at the edge of the openings in item "A"

Clean coin path and install zip-tiepadClean the coin path with rubbing alcohol. Buy the smallest zip tie that you can find and cut most of the tapered end off. Cut the other end off, leaving the proper length for the surface where the quarter rolls down.

Use contact cement to glue the zip tie over the line where the coin rolls down. Glue the smooth side of the zip tie down. The other side will not stick well.
Use of taper of zip on the end where coin enters.  Normally there is a taper (ramp) that can be used when the zip tie is trimmed.  Try to located  this where the coin enters to prevent coins from hanging up.
