How To Clear an SSPM Coin Jam
This task topic discusses how to clear a coin jam from the IPS Group, Inc. SSPM.
When a coin jam occurs in the SSPM, the meter maintenance staff is notified via email or text message. Coin jams typically occur from inten-
tionally actions, when foreign material is inserted, and / or when multiple coins are simultaneously inserted, into the coin slot. But the design
of the meter is such that coin jams will happen very infrequently.
To clear a coin jam from the SSPM:
1. Remove the meter mechanism from the meter base housing.
2. Remove the validator screw from the front of the meter mechanism.
3. Pull the validator from the rear of the meter mechanism by squeezing the spring loaded retention clip.
The jam will be visible due to the design of the clear validator cover.
