IPDB 2 (or 3) balls for 5 cents. There are two separate playfields, upper and lower. The upper playfield has no outhole. The first ball is shot into the upper playfield and, while it is in play, a switch closes the upper playfield to further play. The first ball will always land in a hole. The second ball can only be played in the lower playfield. If the second ball lands in a hole corresponding in value to the hole scored by the first ball in the upper playfield, a match occurs and payout is awarded as follows: Matching 200 pays 2 coins. Matching 400 pays 4 coins. Matching 600 pays 6 coins. Matching 800 pays 8 coins. Matching 1000 pays 10 coins. Matching 1200 pays 12 coins. Matching 1400 pays 14 coins. Matching 1600 pays 16 coins. Matching 1800 pays 18 coins. Matching 2000 pays 20 coins. The operator can adjust the payout percentage by: 1) slightly adjusting the torpedo springs at each pocket, or 2) adding a third ball to be played in the lower playfield. The automatic payout unit can be locked for locations where automatic payouts are not allowed. Operated on Eveready Columbia batteries. used
