Nordamatic "Champion" Query.

[Practicalpete]

Hello everyone, I have recently bought a Nordamatic "Champion" EM pinball machine (1975). I am looking for a schematic and manual (just the shematic would do) if anyone can help me please.

have you googled searched it. it’s going to be a tough one to find?

ask on the european forum too. more chance someone has one there

yeah that's going to be super hard, might be worth pinging Steve at pinball resource an email and asking what he has.

Hello, Pete,

I wouldn't think that there was a manual, in the modern sense anyway. Gottlieb games at the time (and this is Gottlieb-based, as I recall) had more of a booklet giving a basic guide to the machine, game start-up sequence, etc, and listing parts used, e.g wiper discs, coils and relays.

A friend had one of these Italian machines many years ago, and at the time I may have contributed the schematic (if it had one) to the POA collection of copies (as I say, it was a long time ago).

The machine has a backglass marking for 10,000,000 score, which wasn't used. If he'd kept it for long, I'd have looked into making use of this.

Hello Alan J, thank you for your suggestion of looking on the european pinball forums/websites.

Hello Neil, yes it appears to be quite rare, fingers crossed someone will be able to help.

Hello Jay Walker, thank you for replying, before I bought this a friend said it used Gottlieb parts and sure enough now I have made a start it seems to be all Gottlieb parts.

Hello again Neil, forgot to mention that I have sent Steve an email at pinball resource, hopefully he may be able to help.

I had one of these, it's basically the same game as a Gottlieb 500, if that helps.

Hello Special When Lit, many thanks for the information regarding the Nordamatic I'll see if I can get hold of a Gottlieb 500 schematic if nothing turns up from my original request?
