Title: Need Help
Post by: wmix on August 11, 2007, 11:37:49 pm
My son left me a Vendo H63B in my garage. Now that I am retired I was thinking about seeing if it works. Problem how do I open it up without a key. I think someone already tried to open it without a key because there is a lot of slop in the cylinder. I don't have any pictures yet.
 He got the machine out of a Motel that was going to be torn down. So far the price has been right. Thanks for any help
Bill

Hello Bill

just drill it out... Replacements are plentiful from the sponser sites.
When you have it open just take lots of pictures and post them here.
We like pictures...

Welcome aboard.

Yea, looks like it will clean up pretty nice.
The chunk that you circled in the last picture, is it bent, or what?
