AngryChris Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Assuming you are trying to vend cans 3-deep, your cam has 4 notches in the bottom picture meaning it's set up for 4-deep.. so having 3 cans will cause a dry-vend every 4th cycle. It will be vend, vend, vend, dry-vend, etc.. You need to gently lift the cam off of the little round tab and move it to the proper setting IF that is your problem.. make it have only 3 notches like the top picture. It's difficult to know what you are asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 If you don't have a jammed can in the "bad" column then you have a worn out gate link behind the motor. You bought the wrong first machine. This one is very complicated for a newbie and you should have stuck with a simple, single price Dixie Narco. This V-Max machine (there, I gave you a clue what you have) can present you with all kinds of problems like bent gage bars, missing clips, wrong column shims, wrong column setup, warped chute liner and on and on. This will especially happen when you get the bright idea to add bottled water or bottled soda. Not to mention that you WILL have no clue how to program it. Pay a tech to come fix it for you and get it set up properly or sell it and get a simpler machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 You need to replace all the gate links. When one jams a column they are all worn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
