Ok, so I'm working on a clients 81D that was previously set up for electrical vending. I'm am changing it back to mechanical vend. He supplied me with all the parts for the bottle stack. I believe this is the wrong slide piece for a mechanical vend and is meant for a electrical vend. Looking for confirmation. Thx T

The area circled in red makes contact upon sliding over the piece underneath it. I was thinking about trimming it off of the slider plate unless someone has a spare part I can buy from them. I found the second photo on the internet. I believe the correct plate should look like the second photo. Thoughts? Thx T

I do not have any parts you are looking for but posted a photo for confirmation of what you are looking for...

Thx. Gate has been modified and that issue is solved. Learned a few other things on this as well.

Glad it worked out... sorry I didn't have an 81 apart at the time to look at the stack.

it would be interesting to see all the steps it took to modify the electric stack to mechanical.. for future reference.
