So, your toy crane machine is packed, and you're wondering how to add more prizes? It's a common question for arcade owners and operators. The process is straightforward but requires care to avoid damaging the machine or the prizes.
First, you'll need to locate the access point. Most modern crane machines have a front or side panel that unlocks with a key. If you're the operator, you should have this key. For older models, you might need to open the entire front glass panel. Always ensure the machine is turned off before you begin for safety.
Once you have access, carefully assess the current prize distribution. Even though the machine looks full, there might be gaps or spaces you can utilize. The goal is to add new prizes without creating a jam that prevents the claw from functioning properly.
Start by gently pushing existing prizes to one side to create a small opening. Then, slowly add your new prizes. Mix them with the old ones to create an appealing variety for players. A good technique is to place some of the newer, more attractive prizes near the top or the chute to entice players.
Be mindful not to overfill the machine. If the prizes are stacked too high, the claw might not be able to grab them effectively, leading to player frustration. There should be enough room for the claw to descend and close properly.
After restocking, securely lock the panel, turn the machine back on, and do a test run. Make sure the claw moves smoothly and can pick up prizes from different areas. Congratulations! Your toy crane machine is now ready to delight players again with a fresh batch of prizes. Regular restocking like this keeps the game exciting and profitable.
