Vendo 56 Mech Problem?-Handle stuck

[oldmanjoe]

Greetings,

You guys helped a while back on my 55 slider and was hoping you could advise me on my Vendo 56. I don’t use it but every now and then I try it. The last time I did so the dime went in and the handle went down, but is stuck in down position. Not sure if coin went through but did not see it when I removed the coin mech. It now dispenses bottles without coin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope the pics aren't too big

Pic to big sorry

But if the Handle doesn’t t return the coin could be stuck in the sliding block or dirty also maybe the return spring is bad or broke

Thanks, I think I reduced the pics. I'm pretty sure the coin is not in the mech, but I have no idea what the sliding block is or how to repair it. The tube that turns when the handle is pushed turns and works. Sorry, that's the limit of my knowledge. Thanks for the input.
