Selectivend 2a Manual

[travistyne]

Hey Guys, Brand new to the forum here. I have just purchased a Selectivend 2a and am looking for a manual (original or copy). I am also if someone knows where to get light bulbs for the unit and what the types are, all 3 of my lights are out and was wondering if there were 'generic' ones available a a hardware store or if they are specific.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Travis & welcome to the site!

Are these florescent lamps?, if so then the size is usually printed on the one end of the tube.

as an example, F15T12  15watt T-12 size ( large diameter lamp)

Hey Johnny,

Thanks for the response. I haven't got to 2 of the lights yet. I was hoping there was an easy way in there but haven't found it. 1 is in the door and the other is behind the moniker. (I assume there will be some moderate disassembly to get there). The third bulb is missing it sits behind the "correct change" plate. It looks like a tail-light socket on a car. (Contacts on the bottom and a 'bump' on either side that would hold the bulb in place after some downward pressure and a twist.)

Welcome Travis,
Your 2A is pretty much the same as my 1A. Post a quick picture please. Selector and other panel bulbs are an odd 120v. Below are some old posts that will help.
With the panel removed you can access the two screws at the bottom of the front face assembly. Suggest a 1" phillips screw driver for this task. It then just lifts off.

Thanks for the links, this helps. I got the top off and bulbs out. Time to head to Grainger.

Here is a picture of the machine:

Yes, it's one of the more attactive styles, often referred to as the "snow flake" design

Not good at all. Had a reply that took awhile to compose vaporize.
Oh well, anyone that wants pics of the paper work inside my RC3 which is close to Mr. Travistyne's 7-Up send a pm with valid email.
