Title: Door Weight for a VFA56B Post by: Pepsiboy on March 26, 2017, 08:05:50 am Hello,
I purchased my first vending machine, a working square top VFA56B-B Pepsi machine. It appears the main door should simply lift off the hinges once opened. I didn't see any hinge clips or set screws that would prevent it from lifting upwards. I'm assuming the door has never been removed before. I almost tipped the entire machine backwards as I tried to lift the door. What am I missing? What's the door weigh? Thanks!

PB Blaster to get the crude out of the hinges. A floor jack and a helper will get the door off. I would pull the lighted sign. Oops with the door could wipe it out. Never weighed one but would guess every bit of 80 Lbs. Any questions/issues just ask.
