Hi Briehl
I hope for another pinsider to chime in --- an owner of a pin from the time of Your King Pin.
I studied my Replay-Unit --- jrpinball in post-17 said it "on the step-up side".
I do not understand how in Your pin the step-down can work --- (I am german speaking - I found a nice german site) I show a JPG from a german site - see the first JPG --- the stepping down on the Replay-Unit is like an old mechanical watch tic, tic, tic, tic. The balance on an mechanical watch is the "3" and I added a "4a". Look here https://www.uhren-wiki.net/index.php?title=Uhrwerk - scroll down to the "yellow picture" and on the far right You see an animation - NOT WORKING watch. See how "3" and "4a" swing / move.
See the second JPG - the plunger (4b) is pulled-in, 4c and 4d and 4e follow the plunger - the mechanically attached "4a" also moves (to the left) and then the "4e" lifts the "3" --- one "tic" can be made
and then the plunger (4b) releases and the rest returns - another "tic" is made.
The "stepping down on the Replay-Unit" actually is (half-stepped) tic - tic.
Thats why is was asking in post-15 about something broken-off --- I can not imagine how the stepping can be done without an "4a".
Again - I hope for another pinsider to chime in. Greetings Rolf
