Set up Trays to Vend Products

These instructions will guide you through setting up your trays for vending. You will be asked to determine if your tray can physically hold the products you intend to vend. If not, you will be directed to other procedures which will help you get them set up. Follow these nine steps for each tray in your machine:

1.Make sure the tray is in the loading position.

2.Is the column wide enough for the intended product? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, set up your tray to vend wider products (see below, this page). When you're done, return to step 3 in this procedure.

3.Will the products fit between the spiral turns? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, change the spiral.

4.Will the product pass under the tray immediately above? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, reposition the tray and guides.

5.Will the product touch products on either side? If not, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, install a product spacer.

6.Load products in the tray.

7.Return the tray to the vending position.

8.Install the price rolls.

9.Install the selection ID numbers.

Set Up A Tray To Vend Wide Products

The following steps will help you configure your tray to vend wide products. When you are done with the entire wide product steps, return to the set-up procedures above.

NOTE:

Does not apply to bottle trays - they cannot be reconfigure.

1.Remove the tray from the merchandiser and place it on a flat surface.

2.Based on the size of the product you want to vend, decide how many spiral positions it will occupy. Please remember that the left most spiral in the group must have an even ID number (0, 2, 4, etc.) For example, if a product is three spirals wide, the left spiral will be ID number 0, and the right spiral will be ID number 2. Be careful how wide you set up for, because some wide products could get hung up in the delivery door.

3.Remove the column dividers inside the group. In the example of three spiral positions, you would be removing the dividers between spiral ID numbers 0 and 1, and 1 and 2.

4.If your group only consists of 2 spirals, replace the right most motor with a spiral bearing and gear, and install a gear on the left most motor. Skip to step 8.

5.Remove all spirals in the group except the left most spiral.
