Rockola 1455 pinbank cleaning 

The BEST video I've seen on how to do a Rockola pinbank, excellent! Thank you!!!!

Excellent! I now understand how my 1448 functions

I wish you all the best. This is a great video. Sharing this so other jukebox collectors can learn is what this hobby is all about.

Thank you for the very informative video. The pinbank in my 1454, I believe is different. No terminal connections for the ground groupings. They are all hard-wired. Every pin on mine moved easily, except for four, which were seized. I broke them loose, and they all move easily now. Concerned that if I don't disassemble it and do this process, I'll have to do it later. Leaning toward using PTFE spray, rather than graphite, because it's less likely to dry out and get sticky.

Wow!! Great video. And damn, the patience you must have is beyond my understanding

Great video. Very easy to follow. Lots of great information. Thanks for taking the time to make it. This is an intimidating job- quite complex. You made it easy to understand. I have a 1454 and need to do this.

Thank you for a very clear and easy to follow pin bank overhaul video.

Hi Arjan, very informative video! I did the same thing a few weeks ago for a good friend of mine and it was quit some work! I found a few loose wires and cleaned everything so it looked like new. I noticed the graphite layer and while cleaning the panels all the graphite disappeared. I asked Marko Schmidt from Germany who is a authority on Rock-Ola jukeboxes and he told me that on the 200 select pin banks it was not that important to have that graphite layer because the springs are weaker on the pins. with the 120 select the springs are stronger so he advised to use that graphite spray. We tested the pin bank and everything worked fine. Good idea of that phone wire insulation!! I saw another idea on how to keep the pins down, that guy used small magnets! I myself just put one pin with its C clips in both panels and insert 6 complete pins on the other side. Then I put the pin with C clips on that side and remove the other pin with C-clips and keep everything together with one hand and insert the complete pins with springs and plates with the other hand. Takes me maybe 20 minutes per panel. But your idea looks easier. For cleaning I use a small plastic container with a screw on lid and put some degreaser in in with some hot water and also some ground glass or sand from my sand filter pump, screw the lid on and just shake it for 10 minutes and everything is as clean as a whistle. Removing all the parts out of the container is also easy with a strong magnet or use a strainer that lets the water and sand through.That old phone wire is also perfect to use as a Wallboxen cable, its a thin cable and the copper wire is easy to handle.

Cool
