Hi i have a barcrest mpu 4 fruit machine called lotty time.
it sounded an alarm with code ER 1.1
after turning the machine off and opened the door and checked for loose connections the alarm stopped
i then noticed my hopper had around £20 in it so turned the refile key and started to input coins.
well the coin did not go into the hopper they fell straight threw to the cash boxs.
so i think the fruit machine thinks the hopper is full.
how do i empty the hopper so i can start again.
also i have found a service manual but i am after the user manual for programming the settings. so i can change max pay out setup the percentage and how much to put in etc..etc..
thank you for your time.

Just turn the refill key and it should say how many £1's the hopper is short by. To reset it, open bottom door and turn refill key, inside the cashbox door where the overflow money collects there should be a push switch marked "hopper dump"( it hard to find but is there somewhere) press and hold this for 3secs, machine should beep when u release it, then press start button to dump the £1's. After that just put all the dumped float straight back in the hopper, close all doors, take keys out,should be ok now. hope that helps
