rmorris1953 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 2 Thin on each side on wide columns. Also make sure they are the narrow ones for bottles not cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Rmoriss means that for bottles you need the short waffle shims, not the ones that are tall in the back and short in the rear. Let me know if you need any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cvending Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I am also trying to shim a 501E to sell Red Bull. I have a wall mount panel, 2 rods w/white plastic tubes. The problem is that the rear spacer won't move far enough forward to insure the cans hold the sold out paddles. Anyone ever done this in a 501E narrow column?

AZVendor Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 The rear spacer should be set in hole 17 counting from the front. The kit also calls for the narrow sold out paddle. The timing cam is at position 1. One rod w/ tube goes in hole A and the other in hole C in the rotor. So no rod in the middle hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvending Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 OK. I got threat spacer et properl,but the middle cans wants to fall at the end of the vend cycle for the front can. Is there a different shim for the 8.3 oc cans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Do you have a full kit for this? There is a special can stop shim for the right side and an angle shim that mounts to the top of that, then you have the left side wall and a filler shim for the left side as well.

cvending Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I removed from a Red Bull 276e that was factory set. I gave the 2 rods with white tubes and a side panel that hangs on GE right Gand side wall of the selection. I did not notice any adaptor for te left side. No stop shim that I was aware of.

AZVendor Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 That could be your problem then if you don't have the left side shim or the upper shim for the right side. Would you like me to send them to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcron Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Have you gotten any more kits in yet AZ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdman Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Dixie 501e Gatoraide Shimming Wide Coloum Factory calls for 2 thinner shims on each side These should be the rectangular type NOT the ones with a tab for cans You Should install a Oscillator Paddle Extension Dix 32401021003 On some machines the cabinet may have overtime (and from putting one machine on top of another) become out of square and you may have to custom shim the machine for proper operation. I have had to install an extra shim on the side that is closest to the outer wall. I used two bottle shims and one can shim touching the wall.
