Soda machine ignorant please help

Ah a fellow ChoiceVend owner! the three wires would have gone to the can opener's heated piercing-point,( if so equipt.) do put some wire-nuts on them! (they have 110 volts across them! ':O'

) to load the single width/double deep stack lay one can in the back of the stack then one more just in front of it toching the can in back, oh & make sure the tops of the cans face towards the rear of the machine/stack (so when it vends it comes out, it drops bottom first out of the chute)once you get about 4 to 6 cans loaded, hit the loading switch underneath & the cans will feed into the augers, (you might want to tape the "Sold-Out" switchs down so you can test the vending cycle though, when a stack shows a "Sold-Out" light there's always about 4-6 cans left in that stack this may be why the "free-play switch wasn't working for you too. ':<img

:'> ) if the motors spins when you hit the loading switch but the augers don't turn, you may have a stripped main gear in that stack's helix/motor assy. CAREFULLY try to turn the rear auger while hitting the loading switch) if it howls like a banshee, the gears stripped,or has a flat spot, be CAREFULL! if it catches it will turn all four helix's 1/2 turn & may decide to take your fingers for a little spin! ouch! ':O'

! in closing when the machine drops the first can for that stack, that stack is primed, then each vending cycle (or each hit of the loading switch) it will drop one can in that stack if set up properly vend at least four cans to make sure that there are no flat/stripped spots on the helix/gears assy's, double width stacks load the same way, just 2x2 (side by side, 2 in the rear,& two in the front, OH and by the way if the gears AREN'T
lined up as show in the diagram on the front door or have slipped out of sync, due to a stripped gear that stack MAY crush the can & spray you with the soda of it's "Choice" ':p'
