Title: Vmc 44 ??? Post by: Sodak Bob on August 05, 2006, 04:56:50 pm I bougth a vmc 44. Anywhere I can get a manual for the machine? Also. The machine is in good shape - cooler works - but some of the guts seem to be missing. I have no key but it seems the door would open if it didn't hit the press down lever. I can't get in to see what is missing. What am I doing wrong??? Yes, I am pretty green on this model. It looks as if the coin mech was removed. Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!!!

On the 44, the handle will turn counter-clockwise, aligning with the opening, in order to open the change door. It will take a little effort but will turn. Good luck. Eric Title: Vmc 44 ??? Post by: Sodak Bob on August 05, 2006, 06:43:37 pm Thanks Eric...I am in... Another question. Where do I get guts for a 44.. Coin mech, bottle cap box, full/empty sign,evaporator pan (for comp. drain), locking rod..? I may not know the part names, but they are not there....Thanks!!! Bob

There are a few people here that will probably have some of what you need. Just stick around for a little while. Its amazing how bits turn up. Dave Title: Vmc 44 ??? Post by: sodaworks on August 07, 2006, 01:16:12 pm Welcome aboard Sodak Bob,
can you post a picture of the innards of your 44. That way we can tell you what you have and don't have. Since the vending handle was intact, your coin mech should be there. Your probably just missing the slug rejector. Terry@Sodaworks |
