This might be a stupid question, but here goes. How do you get the coin door open to get to the main door latch with the crank handle on ? Surely you do not have to remove crank handle each time you open coin door.    Thanks  !!      Tony

The handle will turn to the left to allow the door to open.

Don't just push to the left......beat it hard with your open palm.

You shouldn't have to beat it that hard.
Perhaps you put the clutch pawl in backwards when you reassembled the crank handle?
Try pulling back on the handle in the normal ready-to-vend position.
If it does not give fairly easy, try pushing it forward as you would vending.
If it gives more easily in the vend motion, you have the pawl in backwards.
You should have grease inside the handle also.
