Title: Disassembling the vending rack Post by: BryanH on April 16, 2005, 12:45:00 pm I started to tear down the vending rack so I could clean and paint it. I'm looking for tips, techniques or recommendations on how to take the lock bar and gate apart. This is the assembly that goes from the front roller gate back to the back channel assembly. Specifically, is there a trick to removing the "X" retainer clips that hold the assembly's arm to the back channel?
I took one off using pliers to spread the clip and then gentley forced/popped it off with the flat side of a screw driver. I got it off but am not sure how successful I'm going to be getting it back on. So I thought I'd ask for thoughts before doing the rest of them Can you buy these anywhere?

The clip and pin in the previous photo are on the left side of this photo.
