Title: Vendo 44 "insert coin/sold out" window rubbing against flag. Post by: sledworks on December 03, 2012, 10:11:47 pm When I close coin door and lock, the little sold out window is actually pressing against flag. It's pulled too tight. It will not pivot when last bottle is dispensed.
Best way to fix? I hate to bend flag assembly for fear of breaking. I purchased new decal from Funtronics but its ripped already from rubbing when opening and closing coin door.. Btw, I'm not a competent repair person. I'm good at buying but not fixing. Go easy. :laugh: Title: Re: Vendo 44 "insert coin/sold out" window rubbing against flag. Post by: collecture on December 04, 2012, 12:32:40 am I'd just bend it. Grab the back side with some pliers and bend it down (or up) with your hand.
It is metal and you would have to bend it repeatedly in the same location for it to break. Title: Re: Vendo 44 "insert coin/sold out" window rubbing against flag.

It pivots fine now when coin door is closed. :smile: Just have to order a new "insert coin" decal since bending the flag caused it to rip. No big deal.

I have found that most of the time these parts are designed so that a litle bend to or fro is necessary for them to fit/work properly. |
