davidsurvz Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Well, so far all I can say about the DI machines is that I am very impressed with the marketing, branding I think these will be a big success for a while. I think the machines look great in the pictures I have seen and I am looking forward to getting my machines this week. I will post more when they arrive and I can experiment with them a little.

texanmutt Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Steve, Would you be able to take a pic of the wheel out of the machine. I want to see if it will work with an XYZ machine. It looks like it will from the top picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Yes, I'll get one up soon. I'm going to also try it out in a couple different machines I have here as well. I'll let you know what I find. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer980 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Mine should be here in a few days too. In another month we will be able to run a DI and Certs double. That should look real nice also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polecat Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Beer980: Your machine and DI gum shipped yesterday - hopefully UPS will have it to your door by Friday. If you notice my Avatar, that is a DI and Certs double on our stand. This would also work on another stand if you prefer. Steve, spvg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T BIRD Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 While servicing 3 Dentyne Ice machines on Saturday I noticed 2 of the bases were very loose and in need of tightening. I am not sure why since they have only been out there 30 days. Maybe folks were playing with them or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I had this happen to me too with a one of mine. I thought maybe I just didnt tighten it enough when i assembled it but then i tightened it as mich as possible when i collected but went back next time and it was a little wobbly again. had While servicing 3 Dentyne Ice machines on Saturday I noticed 2 of the bases were very loose and in need of tightening.

The Master Key Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Do you have to order Dentyne Ice from SuperPro everytime you need more? I haven't seen it in bulk at Sam's. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Brian, I believe SuperPro is the exclusive distributor of Dentyne Ice in bulk form. Steve, can you confirm this? Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Steve and Superpro are the sole distributor of Dentyne gum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcinnick Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I seem to get 3 pieces more than 1 piece when I test my machines. That is just my casual observation, I don't have any hard facts to prove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcinnick Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I only keep one machine at around 6lbs. I only have the others around 3lbs average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polecat Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Antonio is correct. The more the weight the more pressure on the product at the bottom. With too much weight, gum pellets can be forced through the springs in the housing, dropping a third piece along with the two in the wheel.

MountainMan Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Hi all, I received my first DI machine yesterday and thought I would comment on my first impression of it. First off I would like to commend Steve for his great communication with me. He answered my questions and helped me out. Shipping was incredible. This was the last machine I oredered and it was the first to arrive here! When I opened the box, I was a little disappointed. The boxes inside were marked "china" I thought that they were made here. I am impressed with the paint job of the unit. Clean bright "pretty". The instructions were simple. One page, plus a page of pictures to help. The coin mech was smooth and operated fine. The chute cover is a clear plastic. I had not noticed that in the picture. I think I like that. I hope it holds up to abuse from people. I have not tried the vending yet because the product, if I am not mistaken, is considered fresh for 6 months after you open the bag and so I wanted to wait until I have it located, then I will test that part out. From what I have read, I can expect 1 to 3 to be vended and I don't see any way to adjust it. That is a question I have. Do any of you that have the DI machine, put a label or whatever saying that it vends 1 to 3 pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I have changed out the stands on 3 DI/Certs doubles in the past week. I am just scared to death of having these machines on location with the stands that come with them if you order stands thru Superpro. They are wobbly and the footprint of the base itself is way too small to be stable. To be quite honest, when I got back to my shop with the DI stands, I thought of selling them. But instead I simply thre them in the garbage. My conscience would not be comfortable selling these stands to someone the way they work. I have about 5 more stands to go. Live and learn gang. At least I have some solace in knowing my last 3 DI and Certs placements are making good money. Stands or no stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay-Son Vending Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hey guys and gals, 'Can the DI/Certs machines be used as tabletop/bar top models..if so, how could/would you secure them?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Jay, Yes, SuperPro makes a countertop bracket for that purpose. Steve from SuperPro, polecat here on the forums, can give you more details. You can see the various mounting options in the DI brochure HERE. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desert_gold_hound Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I went to the web page and did not see the certs machine? they still making this? Also did anyone figure out if you could add the wheel to some other machines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
