Title: Stack lube
Post by: tkaz on May 29, 2014, 07:59:10 pm
What kind of lubrication should I use on my Vendo 90 stack?  I had put white lithium on a few years ago and it sat for a bit, now it's sticking and causing vend problems.  I'm going to pull it out and get it cleaned up and back in, hopefully before my beers warm up, so I'd like to have the right stuff ready to go.

I found the manual for the Vendo 90 on Vendos website and it does have a small section on lubrication http://www.vendoco.com/Documents/Slant%20shelve.pdf Honestly I've never had a sland shelf machine so I don't know all the parts or what needs to be lubricated but hopefully it helps a little

This grease was ID'd in one of my user manuals.
I tracked it down and used it on both of my Westy WB-60 machines (which has a lot more moving parts than a V-90). Four years later, no issues and I haven't had to re-lube anything.
I highly recommend it!!
