The cash box is located at the rear of an arcuate chute so that, when the attendant grasps the handle and pulls the cash box forward, the cash box slides upward along the arcuate path. The cash box is accessed through a door in the console. The present invention allows an attendant to easily remove a cash box from the console area of a slant-top gaming machine while the attendant stands upright in a comfortable position. The slant-top slot machine has an angled console, incorporating the display area and the user interface.
A cash box assembly particularly suited for a slant-top slot machine is described.
