Title: v56 square top question Post by: unsounddrummer on September 30, 2010, 03:11:17 pm I just picked up a vendorlator v56 square top. Quick question... When the machine is full of bottles/cans... What should I expect as far as compressor run time? My compressor cycles on and off and the machine gets real cold... but not too cold that stuff freezes. It just seems that the compressor is on more than off. What should I expect if the machine is in normal inside temperatures? assuming there are no leaks/ fan issues etc... In other words.. how long should the compressor stay on versus off on a machine that is running in tip top shape?

Mine turns on at 40 and shuts down around 20 . I bought some cheap t-stats on ebay and they only had a 10 degree drop . which made my machine cycle every 30 min .( not good) .

That is what I shoot for with my restored machines.
