Spiral Wall Retainer Usage
A spiral wall retainer serves to compress the spiral and make it act like a spring to more
forcefully eject a product. Do some test vends and use a spiral wall retainer when a product
does not readily leave the spiral.
• Use a spiral wall retainer in the following cases:
• The spiral has a capacity of 20, 25, 30, or 38.
• The product is thin.
• The product is on a candy tray.
• The spiral wall retainer can also be used with other spirals
and types of products.
• The spiral wall retainer is installed near the front of the
column divider.
• There are two ways to install the spiral wall retainer.
• To install a spiral wall retainer, insert the retainer in the square slot near the front of
the column divider.
• The spiral wall retainer must be removed in two cases:
• A KitKat bar loaded into either of the two right hand positions of a tray will not
clear the retainer on the column divider between the two positions.
• A product pusher will catch on
a retainer in ORIENTATION A.
