Newbie questions about Westinghouse Select-O-Matic

[Gnost]

I have a service manual that I purchased when I got the machine but I just looked at it and on the cover it says, "Cooler Group lV".  It's 30 pages and there is no step by step guide to removing the panel.  Is there a more complete service manual available?

[ajf5577]

Someone earlier in this thread offered a manual to you. There should be a specific manual for this model.
The front signs are not that complex. I think that a little patience and the suggestions here may end up with success for you. Try gently prying at the bottom, once you try the razor blade around the edges. Be gentle though. IMO the sign is being held by the foam seal acting as an adhesive due to the age, and possibly paint around the edges as previously suggested. Perhaps a hair dryer blowing along the edge may soften things up.

        I have never owned Westinghouse, but some machines have the screw also on the side or top of the frame. You must open the main door to access them though.

Gentlemen, thank you so much.  I took a razor blade and gently went up and down both sides of the machine and, presto, the panel fell into my hands. 
Tkaz, excellent observation on your part.  You were exactly right; someone had painted the gasket when painting the machine and that's what held the panel in there.  Thanks again.

Congratulations! Now on to the next step.
Once you replace the light, did you figure out how to change the price?

[Gnost]

Tkaz was kind enough to give me the link to a website which shows how to change the pricing on the Coinco box.  It looks like it's self-explanatory.  I did remove the box to have a quick look but I did not see the buttons with which pricing is changed.  I assume they must be in the box itself.  Hopefully I'll have time within the next few days.  The machine also needs a good cleaning/vacuuming so I'll address that as well.  I'm really glad I found this forum; you folks have been great (and patient) with someone who's never been inside one of these things before.  Thanks again.

The little dip switches are located inside the coin changer. You can see them once you remove the rejector.

I found the rejector after probing around a little.  Once I found the two tabs at the top of the coin box and removed the rejector the microswitch was right there.  I flipped the first two little rocker switches to get the 15 cent  price I was looking for.  Piece 'O cake.  Thanks again.

Glad you were able to figure out both issues without problems!  I tend to poke a little too hard and end up with broken pieces, your patience is valuable!

WTG! You're almost ready to run a service route....
