Title: Cavalier 72 Main Door Not Shutting... Post by: Slapshot42 on December 21, 2012, 01:32:45 am Having trouble with the main door on a Cavalier 72 not closing properly. Is there an adjustment for the handle? It looks pretty self explanatory??? Looks like the bar is a "U" shape and it fits inside the latching grove of the cabinet liner?
I will post a picture in the morning. Title: Re: Cavalier 72 Main Door Not Shutting... Post by: MaineT on December 21, 2012, 08:52:59 am Is it a new door seal or an old machine? My vendo 56 shuts really hard and Is original.

Someone here probably knows better than me; I am not sure if the handle/latch can be adjusted. I can take a few pictures if you need to see the closure assembly on another machine.

Usually its bent or grooves cut in them from the liner from years of use. Straighten, and weld grooves back shut. This has always solved my problems with the 72/96
