AZVendor Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Do you have cans in that column and do they satisfy the sold out switch in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigybronco Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Turn out I needed to have at least 3 cans in I only had two Told you I'm new it seems to be working for now I've been told these machines aren't very good wondering what then problem everyone has with them thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 They are crappy machines. The shelf harnesses will get caught on lower shelves and pull off the motors, the plexi window can easily be punched out, the T-handles are weak and if they break they are a golpher to replace, if the machine is bounced the cans will double up on themselves and jam columns, tech support is poor, parts prices are high if they even have them, there are no wiring diagrams available from Seaga at all for any machine they sell, all parts are imported from China, they don't sell any reconditioned parts like logic boards and only sell them for $400+. Shall I go on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poplady1 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 National 474 and AMS 39 are a couple that work but the price is pretty high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Antares is garbage and a Seaga 3500 is just as bad if not worse than the 2500. There is no good Seaga machine. If you just want to sell cans then the AP LCM4 or the National 474 are good. The AMS is best for bottles but it won't hold much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
