EleV Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 We just picked up our Vendesign 4 in 1's and I have a few questions. First it seems there are two different types of tin flappers inside. one with fingers and the other is a square. What are their difference uses? Also does anyone know an easy way to get the vend size piece out? And lastly does anyone have any notes on what setting is best for the most popular products to get the correct vend size?

EleV Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Thank you JLM that helps a lot. I figured out that by rubbing some vegie oil on the sizing piece guides it makes servicing it much easier. I was bummed that 850 count gumballs wouldn't vend but I discovered that if I cut the sides off the sizing piece half way back and place half of the spacer (cut in half too) in the top position it will vend one gumball nicely. At least it was perfect on my 20 test vends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might see the same thing happen to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EleV Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 I didn't see any of the slicing in my test. I will ask the store when we service it. Does anyone have a trick for keeping the spring from coming unhooked? Also what is the purpose of the spring? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
