Not looking forward to it but the stack really needs to be dissembled for a proper job. Any major gottcha's??
Whole lotta snap rings and small phillps screws on this puppy :-)
Thanks in advance!!

Can't be a whole lot different than the rest of the stacks. I take lots of pics when I break down something new so I have something to follow when I put it back together. Also, I try to do it in one sitting so everything is fresh on the brain.

Will be a bunch of pics and drawings of where the camera fails. Great advice and critical for success. This one will be fun. Rough count is 16 springs. 35 snap rings, 120 screws and a chain drive that is still a bit of a mystery.
Thanks!

I have never had the guts to take one apart. Good luck.

Hi Creighton,
Not sure if it will help in your endeavor or not, but I emailed you scans of my Vendo 56 63 90 126 manual showing the breakdown and parts list of the can stack for these models. Also, you might give the winner of this eBay auction (item # 6247085972) an email and he might email you scans from the Cav USS manual he won. Good Luck!

Creighton... I thought about tearing mine down when I first got the machine. Somewhere down the line, a can must have leaked and it was a mess inside. I started looking at taking the trays out, and decided it was easier to use the dremel with some sanding disks and a whole lot of elbow grease to clean it and remove as much of the surface rust as possible. I didn't have the cahones to try a complete dissassembly. I replaced a few of the levers on the front of mine, but thats about as far as I wanted to go.

From what I can tell, the chain sets up the machine for the next vend cycle. When the tray is rotated to take an item, it pulls on the chain and releases the vend actuator so only one selection can be made. I bought the manual on the machine from Steve.. I'll have a look to see if there is a good breakdown of the stack.

Creighton, you should tear down and rebuild your R T Vendo 56 bottle stack first, since it is so much simpler. Then you will decide if you want to tackle a Cavalier............( I wouldn't).

I agree.  The Vendo 56 bottle stack is easier.  Do that one first.  I am tearing down my Motts Vendo 56 bottle stack (pictures anyone???) and it is easier then the Cavalier.  If you need help on the Cavalier, I think I may be able to talk you through it.  I have one dis-assembled .
