I am not if front of mine now, but the right outside panel actually lifts up and out to review the coin mech inside.  It was not obvious to me, but Jim helped me.   If you need more detail I can take a picture of mine and post it.

That's right the right side panel where coins lot is lifts up after you access the top area.

Here are some pictures I just took.  They show the steps of getting to the coin mech.  Hope that helps.

Thanks for posting.  Is that a Victor C-14 in the background?

Slapshot42,

No problem on the posting.  You guys on this site do so much to help me, I am just happy to be able to return the favor.    In regards to the Victor, no it is not a C-14, but try a C-14 x 4 = C-45.   Picked it up several months ago for pretty cheap.  It is a beast, but was working before I started taking it apart to clean it.   Hopefully it will be running when I get it back together.

  Looks like a very nice 5 pull.  Do you have yours vending product?

  I saw a 5 Pull on one of my first picks.  I have looked, and looked for a 5 Pull Tom's Machine and came up short with a 7 Pull for $200.  Had to pay double for shipping but I didn't care it was one of those machines I had to have!

  They are just a cool looking,  out of my entire collection I get a lot of comments about it...

They are pretty cool.  Mine needs to be taken apart and cleaned, but I have not had time up to this point.  I have tried several different products and besides getting a 6 pack of crackers to work sometimes in the center slot I have had no luck.  This part has been disappointing as I really want to use it.  If you ever figure out some product that works please let me know.

You might look at adjusting the "spacer" that controls the width of the opening the product can slide through to vend...  I have 6 pack crackers vending properly through the center column.
