Vendo 81 D Not Vending

[HI-OCTANE]

Working on a Vendo 81   ,  I put the dime in and turn the crank counter clock wise, and it springs back like it should , and then try to pull the bottle out . B :darn:ut wont release it . Whats going with it . ?

Make sure that the actuator "T" assembly is interacting with the Bottle stack cup... you can see where the two meet when you are closing the door .. the T needs to insert into the slots on the vend cup. sorry no photo but you should be able to see if it engages as you close the door..

Yep, As I close the door  i can see the  T is lining up with the cup .  Any other things that I should for ?

Break this down into two system checks:

1 - Make sure the vending stack is functioning alone: with the cabinet door open rotate the vend coupler/cup and check each vend shelf for proper operation.
2 - Again, with the cabinet door open, verify the operation of the coin mech and crank handle/linkage is functioning.

Once you narrow down where the issue may be, we can focus on resolving...

With the door open , I turn the cup by hand  and  the bottles come out on every shelf .  and then  i close the door and put the dime in the coin mec  and crank the handle down and i can tell it is working  . but wont let the bottle release .   I  put more tension on the spring too  . still not working  right .    Now what .

I’ve seen the linkage hooked up wrong...Maybe take off the small rectangular cover plate on the door liner and shoot me a picture of of the area it was covering up. I’m assuming the cup snaps back after turning it...

And now we can proceed to step three...
Adjust the linkage ensuring the vend coupler/cup is rotating properly and far enough to disengage/release the vend stack for proper bottle removal...

      Correction....remove the round cover plate that snaps into the liner, loosen the 2 screws and extend the 'throw' by moving the shaft to the right.
