       This document constitutes part of a prospectus covering
  securities that have been registered under the Securities Act

       The amount to be registered is based upon the maximum
  number of shares of Registrant's Common Stock which may be
  issued under the option plan covered by this Registration
  Statement.

       The proposed maximum offering price per share is estimated
  for purposes of calculating the registration fee based upon
  fluctuating market prices pursuant to Rule 457(c).  The
  calculation is based upon the unweighted average of the high
  and low prices of the Registrant's Common Stock on February 3,
  1994, $14.500 and $14.250, respectively, as reported by the New
  York Stock Exchange.  

       The amount of registration fee is calculated as .00034483
  of the proposed maximum aggregate offering price.

          Item 3.   Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

               The Company incorporates by reference into this Registration
          Statement the following documents:

               (a)  The Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K, as
                    amended, and filed pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d)
                    of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange

                    Annual Report referenced above; and
<PAGE>






               (c)  Any description of the Company's common stock which is
                    contained in the Company's original Registration
                    Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
                    Commission under the Exchange Act with respect to such
                    stock, including amendments or reports filed for the
                    purpose of updating such descriptions.

               All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to
          Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to
          filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all
          securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all
          securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be
          incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and to be
          part thereof from the date of filing of such documents.  

          Item 4.   Description of Securities.

               Not Applicable.

          Item 5.   Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

               Not Applicable.

          Item 6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

               Indiana Code Section 23-1-37-1 et seq. grants to each
          corporation organized under the laws of the State of Indiana, the
          right, privilege and power to indemnify any director, officer,
          employee or agent of such corporation, or such party who is or
          was serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
          officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
          joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against liability
          incurred by him in connection with any threatened, pending or
          completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
          administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal,
          if his conduct was in good faith and he reasonably believed that,
          in the case of conduct in his capacity with the corporation, that
          his conduct was in the corporation's best interests, and in all
          other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to its
          best interests.  In the case of a criminal proceeding, however,
          the corporation may indemnify such an individual if he either had
          reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful, or had no
          reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. 
          Additionally, unless limited by its articles of incorporation, an
          Indiana corporation must indemnify officers and directors who are
          wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of
          any proceeding to which such director or officer was a party
          because that director or officer is or was a director or officer
          of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by that
          director or officer in connection with the proceeding.  This
          statutory provision for indemnification does not exclude any of
          the rights to indemnification or advances for expenses that such
          a person may have under the corporation's articles of
          incorporation or by-laws, a resolution of the board of directors
<PAGE>






          or of the stockholders, or any other authorization, whenever
          adopted, after notice, by a majority vote of all of the voting
          shares then issued and outstanding.

               The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide for the
          indemnification as afforded by Indiana statutory law described
          above.  The Articles of Incorporation of the Company also provide
          a specific method of determining whether an applicant for such
          indemnification is entitled thereto.  Also in accordance with
          Indiana law, the Articles of Incorporation provide that the
          Company may advance expenses incurred by a person eligible for
          such indemnification prior to the final disposition of any
          proceedings upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf or the
          recipient of such an advance to repay such amount unless he is
          ultimately determined to be entitled to such indemnification.

               The Company has in effect a policy of insurance indemnifying
          it against certain liabilities to its directors and officers, and
          indemnifying its directors and officers against certain
          liabilities incurred by them, all within specific limits.  The
          Company pays all premiums on such insurance policies.

          Item 7.   Exemption from Registration Claimed.

               Not Applicable.

          Item 8.   Exhibits.

               The list of exhibits is incorporated herein by reference to
          the Index to Exhibits at page 8.

          Item 9.   Undertakings.

               The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                    (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or
               sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
               registration statement:

                         (i)  To include any prospectus required by
                    Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                         (ii)      To reflect in the prospectus any facts
                    or events arising after the effective date of the
                    registration statement (or the most recent post-
                    effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in
                    the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
                    information set forth in the registration statement;

                         (iii)     To include any material information with
                    respect to the plan of distribution not previously
                    disclosed in the registration statement or any material
                    change to such information in the registration
                    statement;
<PAGE>






                    Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and
               (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on
               Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information required to be
               included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs
               is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant
               pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
               that are incorporated by reference in the registration
               statement.

                    (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability
               under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective
               amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
               relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
               of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
               initial bona fide offering thereof.

                    (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-
               effective amendment any of the securities being registered
               which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

               The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for
          purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
          1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to
          Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
          applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
          report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
          incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
          deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
          securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
          at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
          thereof.

               The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or
          cause to be delivered with the prospectus to each employee to
          whom the prospectus is sent or given a copy of the registrant's
          annual report to stockholders for its last fiscal year, unless
          such employee otherwise has received a copy of such report, in
          which case the registrant shall state in the prospectus that it
          will promptly furnish, without charge, a copy of such report on
          written request of the employee.  If the last fiscal year of the
          registrant has ended within 120 days prior to the use of the
          prospectus, the annual report of the registrant for the preceding
          fiscal year may be so delivered, but within such 120 day period
          the annual report for the last fiscal year will be furnished to
          each such employee.

               The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to transmit or
          cause to be transmitted to all employees participating in the
          plan who do not otherwise receive such material as stockholders
          of the registrant, at the time and in the manner such material is
          sent to its stockholders, copies of all reports, proxy statements
          and other communications distributed to its stockholders
          generally.
<PAGE>






               Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
          Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers
          and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
          foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
          advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
          Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
          expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the
          event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
          (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
          paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
          registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
          proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
          person in connection with the securities being registered, the
          registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
          has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
          appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
          indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
          the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
          issue.

               The Registrant.  Pursuant to the requirements of the

          requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this

                               TOKHEIM CORPORATION
                            1992 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN


                                    Section 1

                                     General


  1.1   Effective  Date  and   Purpose.    Tokheim  Corporation,  an   Indiana
  corporation, ("Tokheim") has established the TOKHEIM CORPORATION  1992 STOCK
  INCENTIVE  PLAN  (the  "Plan")  effective  as  of  December  15,  1992, (the
  "Effective  Date"),  subject to  approval of  the  Plan  at the  next Annual
  Meeting of Tokheim Shareholders  by the holders of a majority of  the shares
  of Tokheim stock  entitled to vote at that meeting.  The purpose of the Plan
  is  to  promote  the  long-term  financial  performance  of  Tokheim  by (a)
  attracting and  retaining executive and other  key employees  of Tokheim and
  its Subsidiaries  (as  defined in  subsection 2.1)  who possess  outstanding
  abilities  with incentive  compensation opportunities  which are competitive
  with those of other similar corporations;  (b) motivating such employees  to
  further the long-range goals of Tokheim; and (c) furthering the  identity of
  interests  of  participating  employees  and  Tokheim  shareholders  through
  opportunities for increased management ownership of Tokheim common stock.

  1.2   Plan Administration.  The  Plan shall be administered by the Committee
  (as  described below).   In  addition  to those  rights, duties  and  powers
  vested in  the  Committee by  other provisions  of the  Plan, the  Committee
  shall have sole authority to:

        (a)   determine  the employees  of Tokheim  and Subsidiaries  to  whom
  options  shall be  granted, when  such  options shall  be granted,  and  the
  number of shares and the terms upon which such options shall be granted;

        (b)   interpret the provisions of the Plan;

        (c)   adopt,  amend  and   rescind  rules  and  regulations  for   the
  administration of the Plan;

        (d)   impose   such  limitations,  restrictions  and  conditions  upon
  grants and awards under the Plan as it shall deem appropriate; and

        (e)   make all  other determinations deemed by  it to  be necessary or
  advisable for the administration of the Plan;
  provided,  that the  Committee shall  exercise its  authority in  accordance
  with the  provisions of  the  Plan.   The  Committee  may not  exercise  its
  authority  at any  time that it has  fewer than two  members.  The Committee
  may  meet  by telephonic  connection.    The  Committee  shall exercise  its
  authority only  by a  majority vote  of its  members at  a meeting  or by  a
  writing without a meeting.

        At any date,  the members of the Committee  shall be those  members of
  the  Compensation Committee  of the Board  of Directors  of Tokheim  who are
  Disinterested Persons; that is,  those members who have not, during  the one
  year  prior  to service  on  the Committee,  or  during  such service,  been
<PAGE>






  granted or awarded  equity securities  pursuant to  this Plan  or any  other
  plan of the Company or  any of its affiliates.  From  time to time the Board
  may increase  the  size of  the  Committee  and appoint  additional  members
  thereof,  remove members,  and appoint new  members in  substitution, but in
  all events such new members shall be Disinterested Persons.

  1.3   Shares Available.   The sum of the number  of shares of Tokheim common
  stock for  which Incentive  Stock Options ("ISOs")  and Non-Qualified  Stock
  Options ("NQSOs")  (both as defined  in subsection 3.1)  may be granted  may
  not exceed 350,000.   If all or  a portion of an  ISO or NQSO expires or  is
  terminated  without having  been exercised in  full and  without having been
  surrendered to  exercise any  related Stock Appreciation  Right ("SAR")  (as
  defined in  subsection 4.1) then the number of shares which are forfeited or
  not purchased  shall again be available for purposes  of making grants under
  this  Plan.  The shares  of Tokheim common  stock delivered  pursuant to the
  Plan shall  be authorized but  unissued shares or reacquired  shares held by
  Tokheim as treasury shares  (including shares purchased in the open market).
  In the event  of a merger, consolidation, reorganization,  recapitalization,
  stock  dividend,  stock split  or  other  similar  change  in the  corporate
  structure or  capitalization of  Tokheim which  affects  the Tokheim  common
  stock, appropriate  adjustment, as determined by  the Board  of Directors of
  Tokheim  (or its successor),  shall be  made with respect  to the number and
  kinds of shares (or other securities) which may thereafter be  awarded or by
  subject to options under the  Plan.  Agreements evidencing grants and awards
  under  the  Plan shall  be  subject  to and  shall  provide  for appropriate
  adjustments, as  determined by  the Board  of Directors of  Tokheim (or  its
  successor)  in  the  event of  such changes  in  the corporate  structure or
  capitalization of Tokheim occurring after the date of grant or award.  

  1.4   Term, Amendment and Termination  of Plan.  Grants  and awards may  not
  be  made  under the  Plan  after the  earlier of  December 14, 2002,  or the
  termination date of the Plan.  The Board  of Directors of Tokheim may  amend
  or terminate the Plan at  any time except that, without the approval of  the
  holders of  a majority  of Tokheim  stock entitled  to vote  at a  duly held
  meeting of such shareholders, the Board may not:

        (a)   increase  the number  of  shares of  common  stock which  may be
  issued under the Plan, except as provided in subsection 1.3;

        (b)   reduce  the minimum option  price under any stock option, except
  as provided in subsection 1.3;

        (c)   increase  the  maximum  period  during  which   Incentive  Stock
  Options, Non-Qualified  Stock Options and Stock  Appreciation Rights may  be
  exercised;

        (d)   extend the term of the Plan; and

        (e)   amend the standards for participation described in Section 2.

        In addition, the Committee  may amend or modify any outstanding option
  in any  manner to the extent that the Committee would have had the authority
  to  initially  grant such  options  as  so  modified  or amended,  including
  without  limitation, to  change the  date  or dates  as  of which  an option
<PAGE>






  becomes exercisable.   Provided,  no modification  shall be  permitted where
  such modification would be considered as the granting of a new option.

        Amendment or termination of the Plan shall not affect  the validity of
  terms  of any grant  or award  previously made to  a Participant  in any way
  which is adverse to the Participant without the consent of the Participant.

  1.5   Compliance  with Applicable  Law.    The Committee  may  postpone  any
  exercise of  an ISO,  NQSO or  SAR for  such time  as the  Committee in  its
  discretion may deem necessary  in order to  permit Tokheim (a) to  effect or
  maintain registration  of the Plan or common  stock issuable pursuant to the
  Plan under the  Securities Act of 1933, as  amended, or the  securities laws
  of any applicable jurisdiction; (b) to  take any action necessary to  comply
  with  restrictions or  regulations incident to  the maintenance  of a public
  market  for  Tokheim common  stock;  or  (c)  to determine  that  no  action
  referred  to in (a)  or (b) above needs  to be taken.   Tokheim shall not be
  obligated to issue shares upon exercise of an ISO, NQSO  or SAR in violation
  of any law,  regulation or rule of a  stock exchange.  Any such postponement
  shall not extend the term of  an ISO, NQSO or SAR.  Neither Tokheim nor  its
  directors  or  officers  shall  have  any  obligation  or  liability  to any
  Participant (or successor in interest)  because of the loss of rights  under
  any grant  or award  under the  Plan due  to postponements pursuant  to this
  subsection.

  1.6   Withholding Taxes.  Tokheim  and its Subsidiaries shall have the right
  to deduct from any cash  payment made pursuant to the Plan the amount of any
  tax  required by  law to be  withheld from  that payment.   Tokheim  and its
  Subsidiaries shall  have  the  right  to  require payment,  in  cash  or  in
  equivalent value  in  Tokheim common  stock,  from  any person  entitled  to
  receive Tokheim common stock pursuant to the Plan, of the  amount of any tax
  required by  law to  be withheld  with respect  to that  stock prior to  its
  delivery.  

                                    Section 2

                               Plan Participation

  2.1   Participation  Designations.     The  Committee  may,  at  any   time,
  designate  any officer or key employee of Tokheim or of a Subsidiary to be a
  Participant.   For purposes  of the  Plan, the  term "Subsidiary"  means any
  corporation of  which, at  any date,  Tokheim owns  directly, or  indirectly
  through an  unbroken chain of  subsidiary corporations,  stock possession 50
  percent or more of  the total combined voting power of all classes  of stock
  of that corporation.  

  2.2   Participation is  Not a Contract  of Employment.   The  Plan does  not
  constitute a contract  of employment.   Participating in the  Plan does  not
  give any employee the  right to be retained  in the employ of  Tokheim or  a
  Subsidiary  and  does  not  limit in  any  way  the right  of  Tokheim  or a
  Subsidiary to change the duties or responsibilities of any employee.


                                    Section 3
<PAGE>






                                  Stock Options

  3.1   Grantees.  The Committee may, at any  time, designate a Participant to
  receive  an Incentive  Stock Option or  Non-Qualified Stock  Option (each as
  defined below)  whether or  not the  Participant has  previously received  a
  grant under the Plan.  For purposes of  the Plan, the term "Incentive  Stock
  Option" means an  option to purchase  Tokheim common  stock which meets  the
  requirements  of section  422  of  the Internal  Revenue  Code  of 1954,  as
  amended (the  "Code") and  the term  "Non-Qualified Stock  Option" means  an
  option  to purchase  Tokheim common  stock which  is not an  Incentive Stock
  Option.  Each  ISO and NQSO granted under the  Plan shall be evidenced by an
  agreement  between the  Participant  and Tokheim.    The provisions  of each
  agreement shall  be  determined by  the  Committee  in accordance  with  the
  provisions of  the Plan.   A  Participant shall  not have  any  rights of  a
  shareholder of  Tokheim common stock  with respect to  shares subject to  an
  ISO or NQSO until such shares are purchased upon exercise of the option.

  3.2   Number of  Shares Optioned  and Option  Price.   The Committee  shall,
  subject  to the limitations of subsection 1.3  and this Section 3, determine
  the number of shares of Tokheim common stock which may be  purchased and the
  option  price of each share on  exercise of each  ISO and NQSO granted under
  the Plan.   To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of stock with
  respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time  by any Participant
  during any calendar year exceeds  $100,000, such options shall be treated as
  NQSOs.  The  foregoing limitation shall  be applied by  taking options  into
  account  in the order in  which they  were granted.  Provided,  in the event
  and to the extent limits on the maximum number  of shares for which ISOs may
  be granted  under Section  422  shall be  increased, the  maximum number  of
  shares or amount  for which ISOs may  be granted  under this Plan and  other
  plans shall be  similarly increased.  The option  price of each  share under
  an ISO or NQSO shall not  be less than 100 percent of the Fair Market  Value
  of a share of Tokheim  common stock on the date the  option is granted.  For
  purposes  of the  Plan, the  term "Fair  Market Value"  means the unweighted
  mean of the high and low  prices of a share of Tokheim Common Stock, on  the
  first  date that the stock was so  traded which next precedes the date as of
  which  the determination is being  made, as reported  by the  New York Stock
  Exchange.  

  3.3   Exercise of  Options and  Payments.   Each ISO  and NQSO  shall become
  exercisable in full at such  time, or in such portions at such times, as the
  Committee  determines,   subject  to  the   following  provisions  of   this
  subsection 3.3.    No  ISO  or  NQSO  granted  to  a  Participant  shall  be
  exercisable prior to  the first anniversary of the  date that the Option was
  granted  except, in  the discretion of  the Committee,  if the Participant's
  employment with Tokheim  and all of its Subsidiaries terminates by reason of
  death,  Disability  (as  defined   in  section  37(c)(3)  of  the  Code)  or
  retirement (as  described in subsection 3.4(d)).  During  any period that an
  ISO or NQSO  is exercisable, it  may be  exercised by  delivering a  written
  notice  to Tokheim at its principal  office by registered or certified mail,
  or in person or by facsimile, stating  the number of shares with  respect to
  which the Option  is being exercised  and specifying  a date  not less  than
  five nor  more than 15 days  after the receipt of  such notice on which  the
  shares  will be taken up and payment made therefore.  Payment may be made in
  (a)  cash  or  (b) in  the event  the  Committee does  not prohibit  such an
<PAGE>






  exchange,  in shares of Tokheim  common stock with  an aggregate Fair Market
  Value  on  the  date of  exercise equal  to  the purchase  price, or  in any
  combination of cash and such shares.  

  3.4   Termination of Options.  Each ISO and NQSO shall terminate  and not be
  exercisable  after the  date determined by  the Committee,  which date shall
  not  be later  than the earliest  of (a)  the tenth anniversary  of the date
  that the option was granted; (b)  the date the Participant's employment with
  Tokheim and all Subsidiaries  terminates for reasons other than described in
  (c)  or (d)  next  following;  (c) the  first  anniversary of  the date  the
  Participant's employment  with Tokheim  and all  Subsidiaries terminates  on
  account  of death  or  Disability;  or  (d)  the first  anniversary  of  the
  Participant's  retirement, as approved  by the Committee, from employment by
  Tokheim or a Subsidiary.   Exercise of an option pursuant to  Section 3.4(d)
  more  than  three (3)  months  after  termination  of  employment shall  not
  qualify for ISO tax treatment in the hands of the Participant.

  3.5   Transferability.     Each  ISO and NQSO  granted to  a Participant may
  not be transferred by the Participant  except by will or the laws of descent
  and distribution, and may be exercisable  during the Participant's  lifetime
  only by the Participant.

  3.6   Change  in Control.    Notwithstanding any  provision to  the contrary
  contained herein,  or contrary  limitations imposed  upon an  option by  the
  Committee, any  stock option granted pursuant to the Plan shall, in the case
  of a  change  in control  ("Change  in  Control"), as  hereinafter  defined,
  become  fully exercisable as to all shares of stock  from and after the date
  of such Change in  Control and shall,  subject to the provisions  of Section
  3.4(a),  above,  remain  exercisable  for  a  period  of  three  (3)  months
  following  the employee's  termination of  employment with  the Tokheim,  if
  said termination occurs  within six (6) months after  the date of the Change
  in Control.

        The term  "Change in  Control" shall  mean a  Change in  Control of  a
  nature such  that (1)  it would be  required to be  reported by a  person or
  entity  subject  to the  reporting  requirements  of  Section  14(a) of  the
  Securities Exchange  Act of  1934, or  successor provisions  thereto, as  in
  effect on  the date hereof, (2)  a "person" or  "group" (as those terms  are
  used in Sections  13(d) and 14(d) of the  Securities Exchange Act  of 1934),
  is  or becomes the  "beneficial owner"  (as defined  in Rule  13(d)-3 issued
  under the Securities  Exchange Act),  directly or indirectly, of  securities
  of Tokheim,  representing in excess  of thirty percent  (30%) of the  voting
  securities of  Tokheim, then outstanding, followed  by the  election by said
  person  or group of one or more representatives to the Board of Directors of
  Tokheim; (3) a  person or group, as hereinabove  defined, is or  becomes the
  beneficial  owner,  directly  or  indirectly,  of  securities   of  Tokheim,
  representing  in excess of fifty  percent (50%) of the  voting securities of
  Tokheim, then outstanding, whether  or not followed by the election  by said
  person or group of one or more representatives to the Board of Directors  of
  Tokheim; or  (4) any  other event, including  but not limited  to those  set
  forth in paragraphs  (1) through (3) above, which  shall have the  effect of
  placing control  of the  business and  affairs of  Tokheim, in  a person  or
  group  as hereinabove  defined,  other than  or  different from  the present
  stockholders of Tokheim.  Provided, no  Change in Control shall be deemed to
<PAGE>






  have occurred for  purposes of this Plan if a majority of the members of the
  Board of  Directors of  Tokheim approves  the events  which would  otherwise
  constitute a change of control within thirty (30) days thereof.


                                    Section 4

                            Stock Appreciation Rights

  4.1   Grantees.  The Committee  may, at the  time a stock option  is granted
  under Section 3 to  a Participant or at any time thereafter,  designate that
  Participant  to be granted, in  conjunction with that  stock option, a Stock
  Appreciation Right (as defined below).   No Stock Appreciation Right may  be
  granted  in conjunction  with a previously  granted ISO  without the written
  consent of the  affected Participant.   For purpose  of the  Plan, the  term
  "Stock Appreciation Right" means  a right to surrender all or a portion of a
  stock option and receive, in exchange, payment of an amount  no greater than
  the excess of the  Fair Market Value  (as defined in subsection 3.2)  of one
  or more shares of Tokheim common stock determined  on the date the right  is
  exercised  over the  Fair  Market Value  of the  same  number of  shares  of
  Tokheim  common stock  determined on the  date the related  stock option was
  granted.    Each  SAR  granted  under  the Plan  shall  be  evidenced  by an
  agreement  between the  Participant  and Tokheim.    The provisions  of each
  agreement shall  be  determined by  the  Committee  in accordance  with  the
  provisions of the Plan.

  4.2   Terms of SARs.  The Committee  shall determine the number of shares of
  Tokheim common  stock and  the  percentage (not  more than  100 percent)  or
  maximum amount  of the increase  in Fair Market Value  of those shares  over
  the relevant period  upon which payment  of each  SAR at  exercise shall  be
  based.   Each SAR may  be exercisable at  any date with  respect to no  more
  than the number of shares for which the related stock  option is exercisable
  on  that  date.    Each  SAR issued  in  conjunction  with  an  ISO  may  be
  exercisable  only when there  has been  an increase in  Fair Market Value of
  the shares  over the relevant  period.  If a Participant  to whom an SAR has
  been granted is  subject to Section  16 of  the Securities  Exchange Act  of
  1934, as  amended, the Committee  may, at any  time, impose such  conditions
  and limitations upon such SAR as the Committee deems necessary or  desirable
  for the Participant to comply with  or obtain an exemption from such Section
  16 and applicable rules and  regulations.  The terms of  an SAR may  include
  such other conditions and limitations upon  exercise as the Committee  deems
  desirable.

  4.3   Exercise  of  SARs  and  Payment.    During  any period  that  SAR  is
  exercisable, it may be  exercised by delivering a written  notice to Tokheim
  at  its principal  office by  registered or  certified  mail, or  in person,
  which specifies the  extent to which the SAR is being exercised.  Payment to
  the Participant shall be made as soon  as practicable after exercise of  the
  SAR and  may be  made in  cash, in shares  of Tokheim  common stock with  an
  aggregate Fair Market Value on the date  of exercise equal to the  amount to
  be paid, or in  any combination of cash and such  shares.  Upon  exercise of
  an  SAR, the right to exercise the  related stock option shall automatically
  be terminated to the same extent that the SAR was exercised.
<PAGE>






  4.4   Termination of SARs.   Each SAR shall terminate and not be exercisable
  after the same date that the related stock option terminates.

  4.5   Transferability.    Each SAR  granted  to  a  Participant  may not  be
  transferred  by  the  Participant  except together  with  the  related stock
  option and except by will or the laws  of descent and distribution, and  may
  be exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by the Participant.


                                    Section 5

                             Restricted Stock Awards

  5.1   Grantees.  The Committee may, at any  time, designate a Participant to
  receive  a Restricted  Stock Award  (as defined  below) whether  or not  the
  Participant  has previously received an award  under the Plan.  For purposes
  of the  Plan, the  term Restricted Stock  Award ("RSA") means  the right  to
  receive, at specified times and subject  to specified conditions, shares  of
  Tokheim common  stock which  may bear  such restrictions  and/or restrictive
  endorsements as the  Committee determines.  Each  RSA shall be evidenced  by
  an  agreement between the  Participant and Tokheim.   The provisions of each
  agreement shall  be  determined by  the  Committee  in accordance  with  the
  provisions of the Plan.

  5.2   Grants of Restricted Stock  Awards.  The  sum of the number  of shares
  of Tokheim  common stock  from which  RSA's may  be granted  may not  exceed
  50,000.    The  Committee  shall,  subject  to  the  foregoing   limitation,
  determine the  number  of  shares  of  Tokheim common  stock  which  may  be
  awarded, and the conditions  which must be met for award and delivery of the
  shares to  the Participant under each  RSA granted under  the Plan.  An  RSA
  may  provide, in the  discretion of  the Committee, for  the issuance of the
  shares which  may be awarded  under the RSA in  the name  of the Participant
  subject to the following restrictions:

        (a)   the shares  may not be sold,  transferred, pledged or  otherwise
  assigned or encumbered  by the Participant  except by  will or  the laws  of
  descent and distribution;

        (b)   each stock  certificate shall be registered  in the  name of the
  Participant  and  deposited  with  the  Secretary  of  Tokheim,   until  all
  conditions upon final issuance shall have been satisfied;

        (c)   dividends paid  on the shares shall  be paid  to the Participant
  at such times  and under such  conditions as the Committee  shall determine;
  and

        (d)   the shares and dividends  which have not been distributed to the
  Participant   shall   be  subject   to   forfeiture   in   accordance   with

  terminates  for any  reason  other than  death, Disability,  retirement  (as
  described  in  subsection 3.4(d)),  or  other  reasons  determined   by  the
  Committee which should not cause forfeiture; or

        (b)   the  conditions, if  any,  specified in  the  RSA are  not fully

       Re:  Shares to be Issued Pursuant to Tokheim Corporation
            1992 Stock Incentive Plan and Registered on Form S-8

  Dear Sirs:

       We have acted as counsel to Tokheim Corporation, an
  Indiana corporation (the "Company"), in connection with
  registration of the Company's 1992 Stock Incentive Plan and
  shares of the Company's Common Stock to be issued upon exercise
  of options thereunder, as reflected by the Company's
  Registration Statement on Form S-8 being filed with the
  Securities and Exchange Commission.  This opinion is prepared
  and submitted pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation S-K.

       As to various factual matters relevant to our opinion, we
  have relied upon inquiries made by us to officers of the
  Company.

       This opinion is governed by and shall be interpreted in
  accordance with the Legal Opinion Accord (the "Accord") of the
  ABA Section of Business Law (1991).  As a consequence, it is
  subject to a number of qualifications, exceptions, definitions,
  limitations on coverage and other limitations, all as described
  in the Accord, and this opinion should be read in conjunction
  therewith.  The law covered by the opinions expressed herein is
  limited to the laws of the State of Indiana.

       Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the
  qualifications and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the
  opinion that the shares of Common Stock of the Company to be
  issued upon exercise of options under the Company's 1992 Stock
  Incentive Plan will be, at such time as the exercise price is
  paid therefor, legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.  

       We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion, or copies
  thereof, as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement.  In
  giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are within
  the category of persons whose consent is required under the
  Securities Act of 1933 or the rules and regulations of the
  Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

                                Very truly yours,

                                BAKER & DANIELS
