BlindVending Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Hey guys have a selection with a dead motor. Went to replace it. Removed rod and both motors (the machine has back to back columns. How the hell do you line up to reinstall the rod and motor assembly. So awkward and almost need 3 hands. Can get it perfectly through the first column but than can't seem to line up the rear column. What's the trick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CajunCandy Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Cussing in "French" helps! I've changed two so far both in back columns and there not fun. Patience! cajun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Patience is the trick. I've done it many times and it seems to be difficult every time. I've often wondered if it will ever go back together myself, but it does. The pisser is when you get it into the back stack and then accidentally pull it back out.

I know I have replaced at least three of them, but don't remember them being 'that' difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindVending Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Alright you guys have restored some faith in the situation. Glad it's not just me. I just watched a YouTube video and I believe I had the back rotor in the wrong hole (bigger bottom hole). Going back in an hour for round 2!

Southeast Treats Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Good luck! It takes some time to get them lined up but it CAN be done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindVending Posted May 21, 2016 Author Share Posted May 21, 2016 Update: I did finally manage to get this done after about 2 hours total on 2nd trip. What a pain in the golpher! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
