Sgolembiewski0903 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Notice the screw to the right of the one on the left. This is one of the screws that holds the bill acceptor in place on a Wittern 3500. How do I remove this screw? It is in a very tight area. There is one that is even harder to get to on the other side of the bill acceptor... Do I need the world's smallest crescent wrench?? Thanks for all your help everyone!Sincerely,Noob Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tc vending Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Looks like the bill acceptor screws a socket set will get it off. Take the mask off the bill acceptor gives you a little more room use a deep socket with an extention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvending Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Use a 11/32 inch nut driver. Every tool box should have one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgolembiewski0903 Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 I just want to make sure we are talking about the right screw, I'm talking about the one on the right - the one you can only see about 1/3 of. I can't fit a socket around that screw, its blocked by the bill acceptor. Are you guys saying there is a way to remove the gray plastic piece that's in front of it?

tc vending Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 The screw fully in view take all four them off out comes the bill acceptor. The one that is 1/3 visible is part of taking the bill acceptor apart after it is off the machine. Find a good service company and have it repaired.

cvending Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Take the validator off machine B y removing the four nuts. Once off you will see a Phillips screw on the face of validator that hold faceplate that attaches to that nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 You guys all crack me up. Cvending is the only one that called them nuts correctly. The one you can't get to is the nut on the faceplate screw that cvending mentioned. The other 4 nuts on the corners are what need to be removed. I always have a 11/32" deep socket, 1/4" drive on an extension in my tool bag. It's about the most common tool I use other than my phillips. Many machines have one nut that's almost impossible to get off or back on so you can easily run those validators with just three nuts on it.
