Calling all experts! Jukebox Metals Info Requested
I'm working on Seeburg 100Rs, but my question could be helpful to many, I think.
I don't have the expertise to handle the many different types of metal in the jukebox, though I understand that the cleaning and maintenance of them differs, and that what is sound for some can be disastrous for others. Rather than run down lots of parts, I'd like to learn to recognize them. To keep it simple, I'd like to suggest a format: Examples: You can tell that something is made of _________ if it __________. The best way to clean/ repair/restore ________ is _________. Do not ever __________. Other parts made of this include _________. I'm sure there are others, but some examples I can think in a 100R a the yellowy metal that is used for many of the brackets the soft grayish metal that many of the castings are made of the shiny silvery metal that solenoid pins are made of the hard metal used for gears copper contacts pins of various plugs things painted blue, like the magazine If we wind up with a lot of information, I will organize it into a single posting to make it easy for others to use. |

Or you could simply use the Seeburg Lubrication Guide page which should be in your service manual. For Seeburg Oil use 20W non-detergent.

Of course. I'm trying to build an understand beyond lubrication, though, and not so much to address a particular problem, but to understand this aspect of the jukeboxes. Also, it is a lot easier to find information about handling the metals from outside the jukebox community if I know what they are made of.
For example, I don't know what the plugs are made of, or if they are coated. I don't think this is in either manual, although it might be. I'm not asking anyone to post anything comprehensive, but I would certainly like to tap the collective wisdom. |

There is a fellow named Ron Rich who hangs out in some of the jukebox mail lists on Yahoo who worked at Seeburg for a long time. He is one of your better bets for this info.
