Title: Vendo 44 bottle rack question Post by: bergy on December 19, 2011, 06:26:08 pm I am currently putting my machine back together and have a question. When I operate the bottle rack mechanism by hand should it rewind itself? If so can someone explain how to adjust this? My rack is a newer replacement and I am including pics. Thanks in advance for any help.

Nice restoration on the Vendo 44, looks great. I will have to post some pictures soon of mine. All I have left is to put the stickers on. By the way did you find the main door was much harder to close after putting on the new main gasket? I am thinking it will just take some time for it to break in?
