Tim Hughes Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I have a vendo 480p pepsi machine. I recently purchased this used.. I have 16.9 oz bottles in it, 2 deep in each column. Cans set on 2. I believe I have the proper shims [2] in each column.. most every time I vend one product it will dispense 2... please help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Are you sure it vends 2, then 2 then 2? It should vend 2, then 0, then 2, then 0 if it ever vends 2 together. You can get close to the setup with the following: Cam setting is 2, rear spacer set at 10, a grey clip in position 1 on the gage bar, gage bar in location 2 and a formed metal can shim PN 1060686 in position 2 (the only position it fits in.)

Vendo Mike Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Sounds like the either incorrect shim, clip is missing, gauge bar is in the wrong rear position, the gauge bar is bent or the motor is coasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Hughes Posted January 17, 2023 Author Share Posted January 17, 2023 The issue was in fact a shim issue... to save a few hundred dollars I used a thick piece of cardboard sandwiched between the two plastic shims... everything works as it should now... thanks for all of your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Another redneck too cheap to buy a proper shim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Vending Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) What are you buying for a few hundred dollars? Another machine for parts? Edited January 17, 2023 by Gizmo Vending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Hughes Posted January 17, 2023 Author Share Posted January 17, 2023 The only place I could find them was ebay at 35 each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
