The Fusion Line is assembled and packed so that
a minimum amount of time is necessary for
preparation to install it on location. The following
steps are recommended to insure correct
unpacking.
1. Shipping Damage: Thoroughly inspect the
exterior of the carton for damage which may
have occurred during shipment. Report any
damage to delivering carrier and follow their
instructions.
2. Remove the remainder of the packing
material. On machines shipped with the lock in
place, the keys are taped inside the coin
return.
NOTE: On the machine, the weight
concentration is toward the back of the
cabinet. Trucking and lifting should be
done from the back. CAUTION should be
taken when trucking from side.
3. On machines with lock in place, first unlock
and turn handle to open door. When no lock
is furnished, remove clip and turn handle.
Swing door to its full open position.
4. Remove all additional packing material from
the machine.
5. Warranty: The warranty card is attached to
the cover of this manual. It must be filled out
in full and mailed at once to insure coverage.
Leveling the Machine on location is important for
the proper function of the machine. There are four
leveling screws in the legs of the machine to make
any necessary adjustments. After positioning the
machine, level it from front to rear and right to left
directions. After leveling, examine the top hinge
from the right side of the machine. If the end of the
hinge is lower than the top of the cabinet, you will
have a problem getting the door to close smoothly.
To correct this problem, raise the front of the
machine, and screw the 5th leg down to the floor
enough to cause the top hinge to be flat and
parallel with the top of the cabinet once the cabinet
is lowered back down to the floor. Repeat as
required.
Clearance Requirements
It is necessary on Fusion machines to have 6”
clearance behind the machine for air circulation.
6”
IMPORTANT: A set of anchoring brackets is
included with each machine. This kit is located
in the bottom of the machine with complete
instructions. It is recommended that this kit
be installed during set-up to prevent shifting of
the
machine.

Door Hinge Swing
This machine contains a newly designed door hinge. The design of the door hinge controls the maximum distance
the door can swing open. The maximum opening position is reached when the screw is forced against the hinge
body. This screw can be removed during installation to permit the door to swing completely open and can help
maneuver the machine through a narrow doorway.
The screw should be replaced immediately upon reaching the machine’s final location. Failure to replace this
screw may result in damage to an adjacent machine or to the harnesses in the machine.
CAUTION: The screw should be replaced immediately
upon reaching the machines final location. Failure to
replace this stop may result in damage to an adjacent
machine or the harnesses in the machine.
Position A – Door Closed.
Position B – Door open to nominal
position with stop screw (D) installed.

Basic Set Up Steps
1. Remove all packing materials.
2. Adjust the scrolling price tabs on the
shelves.
3. Set prices and options on control board.
4. Set Clock.
5. Load machine adjust spacers or spirals
as needed.
6. Install product pushers as needed.
7. Add coins to coin mechanism.
8. Coin test.
9. Bill test if applicable.
10. Install lock cylinder if needed.
Loading Snack Shelves
Open the main door to its full open position. While
pushing down on the plastic lock lever located on
the right side of the shelf, grasp the shelf under
both front corners (see Figure 1). Lift the front of
the shelf slightly and pull forward until the shelf
reaches its stop. On shelves 1 through 4 the
shelves tilt down (do not drop) to make loading
easier. A new feature in the Fusion, the bottom 2
shelves do not tilt for easier loading. Only one
product shelf should be in the loading position at
any time. When returning a shelf, be sure the shelf
is in its full home or vend position. Begin loading
with the top shelf. Move it into the loading position.
The height spacing for items is greatest in this
shelf and the tallest bagged items should be
placed there. Soft items, such as pastry, pies,
etc., should be placed in the lowest snack shelf,
making the drop distance as short as possible.
IMPORTANT: Product must not be forced into the
spiral spaces it should fit freely. If a product fits
tightly, use a larger pitch spiral. The bottom of the
product should be placed on top of the spiral wire
that rests on the shelf surface (see Figure 2). The
width of the product must be greater than the
diameter of the snack spiral. If it is smaller, the
product may fall through when it is in the front,
ready to vend position.

GPL 6500 0108 1.05
Adjusting the Stopping Position of the Spiral
One primary difference that distinguishes the
Fusion motor from previous motors is an eight
sided star at the drive hub of the motor. This
permits the stopping position of the spiral to be
customized by the operator to ensure the best
possible delivery of each product. To change the
stopping position of the spiral, remove the spiral
lock from the motor by pinching the shaft of the
spiral lock from the back side of the motor and
pulling forward on the front side of the spiral lock.
The spiral lock can be reinstalled in any of eight
different positions by turning the spiral lock to the
position desired and pushing the shaft of the spiral
lock through the eight sided star at the drive hub of
the motor.
Removal/Replacement of Spiral
Right Hand Spirals: Grasp the front of the spiral
and turn it clockwise. Lift the spiral up and off of
the spiral lock. When replacing a spiral attach it
around the tab on the spiral lock and turn the spiral
counterclockwise to lock it in place (see figure 3).
Pull lightly on the front of the spiral to ensure it is
locked in place.
Left Hand Spirals: Grasp the front of the spiral
and turn it counter clockwise. Lift the spiral up and
off of the spiral lock. When replacing a spiral
attaché it around the tab on the spiral lock and turn
the spiral clockwise to lock it in place. Pull lightly
on
the front of the spiral to ensure it is locked in place.
Product Spacers - 5 Selection Shelf
A product spacer is used to reduce the width of the
product area. This feature should be used on any
5-selection single spiral snack shelf where the
product width is 4" or less. Spacers should fit
within 1/8" of the product but should not fit tight
against the product. There are three positions in
each snack space where these spacers can be
placed. To install the spacer, align the lock ears
(on the lower edge of the spacer) with one of the
three sets of slots (one front and one rear). (see
Figure 4.) Push the spacer to the rear to allow the
ears to enter the slots, then allow the spacer to
move forward. Be sure the ears are in the same
set of slots, front and rear (see Figure 4).
Continue loading all spirals; adjust spacers where
needed in the top shelf. Return the top shelf to the
vend position and follow this procedure to load the
remainder of the large spiral shelves.

Loading Main Product Candy Shelves
The 10-selection (candy type) shelves are loaded
similarly to the 5-selection shelves except that the
bottom of the product sits on the shelf in front of
the spiral wire (see Figure 5). These products
must also fit properly, and the product should fit
freely: do not force product into spiral.
Product Spacers-10 Selection Shelf
The 10-selection shelves are equipped with a product
spacer (see Figure 6) that can be pivoted from the
right side of every other product space. These
spacers should be pivoted out to hold the product
upright, but not tight against the product. Leave about
1/8" clearance between the spacer and the product.

GPL 6500 0108 1.08
Product Pushers
Included with the machine are enough pushers for
you to install a pusher on each candy spiral. This
plastic part is designed to push the top of the
product forward while it is vending, helping it fall
from the shelf. It can also be used with products
that have the wrapper end flap on the outside of
the package. In this case, the pusher prevents
these products from hanging on the spiral by
spreading the flap. The pusher should be installed
at approximately the 1 o’clock position on the
spiral with the tab extending forward (see Figure
7). Locate the pusher in its proper position, hold it
against the spiral wire and push the semi-circular
part around the spiral wire. Black pushers
(#440215) are used on left hand spirals and white
pushers (#44014-1) are used on right hand spirals.
Black pushers are used on left hand spirals Note:
Not every selection spiral will need a product
pusher. (Example - Box Items.)
Bagged or Boxed Items
Vending small bagged items in the 10-selection
shelves if not loaded properly could be a problem.
The sealed edge of the bag may get under the
spiral wire causing the product to hang up after it
has been vended. It is recommended that the
lower edge of these types of product be folded
forward and up (see Figure 8) next to the product
before inserting into the spiral space. It is also
recommended to use a slightly larger count spiral
for bagged items because of the product settling to
the bottom of the package.
Cigarette Vending From the Fusion
Cigarettes can be vended from the candy shelves
using a (15 capacity) spiral for the soft pack regular,
king, 100 MM or 120 MM packs. A (12 capacity)

Cleaning
The Fusion will do the best merchandising job for
you if it is kept clean. The display window can be
cleaned with any good glass cleaner. The exterior
and interior surfaces should be cleaned with warm
water and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and
dry all surfaces.
CAUTION: Do not use any cleaners containing
silicon as this could cause electrical failures.
The main product shelves can be best cleaned
with the spirals and product spacers removed.
Refer to page 1.05 for removal of spirals and
removal of the product spacers.
Clean the acceptor on the coin mechanism or bill
validator frequently as accumulated dirt in this area
can cause poor acceptance on coins or bills.
Follow recommended cleaning procedures as
described by the coin mechanism or bill validator
manufacturer.

Optional Equipment
GPL 6500 0108 2.01
Dual Spiral Motors (Part # 360240)
Snack shelves can be set up to have dual spiral
selections. The dual spirals will help vend specialty
items better. These motors are available through
aftermarket parts only.
Half Cycle Motors (Part #360241)
The half cycle motors are used to vend thin items.
This motor is used with a product divider that is
positioned down the center of the coil. The product
is placed on both the left and right hand side of the
coil. When the motor turns, it turns only 180 degrees
(half revolution) rather than 360 degrees (full
revolution). These motors are available through
aftermarket parts only.
Touch Memory Harness
The touch memory harness (Part # 16800013) is
used in conjunction with the touch memory button
(CHIP) available separately (Part # 17500003). This
harness will allow you to download all settable data,
with the exception of the time and date. Once CHIP
is programmed you can take it to as many machines
as you wish to upload the information stored in
CHIP. CHIP can be programmed from a machine
that is already set up and then used to set up other
machines that are to be programmed identically. For
more information see Mode 30.

Refrigeration
GPL 6500 0109 2.02
The Refrigeration Unit
The Refrigeration Unit is comprised of a 1/3
horsepowercompressorandisahermeticallysealed
system (no service ports). The refrigerant used in
the refrigeration system is 134a and the charge is 9
ounces.The refrigerationsystemis controlledbythe
Refrigeration Driver Board. The Fusion glassfront
merchandisers are designed to operate at ambient
temperature of 55ºF to 100ºF (13ºC to 38ºC).
Refrigeration Processing:
The Refrigeration Driver Board (P/N 80492751)
maintainsthe temperature as measured by thesolid
state temperature sensor. The refrigeration unit will
be turned on at the Set Temperature plus 3ºF and
will be turned off at the Set Temperature minus 3ºF.
A minimum of 1 minute is required for both the
cycle-onand cycle-off time of the relay. This insures
the compressor is not cycled on and or off too
rapidly.
Defrost Cycle
Independentof the temperature, the relay, therefore
the compressor, will be turned off for a defrost cycle
after 120 minutes of compressor run time. The
defrost cycle will last a minimum of five minutes or
until the temperature of the cabinet exceeds 45°F
(5.5°C). The power for the evaporator fan motor is
constant and continues to operate during a defrost
cycle.
Settable Temperature Range
The temperature for this machine when dispensing
perishable food is set automatically to 36°F when
“Food” is chosen as the machine type. When selling
non-perishable products and themachinetypeisset
to “Zone”, the settable temperature range is from
37ºF to 80ºF (3ºC to 27ºC). The recommended
temperature when the machine is equipped with
bottle shelves is 42°F (5.5°C). When using the
machine to dispense typical candy and
confectionary products, the recommended
temperature is 65ºF (18ºC).
Setting the Temperature
Refer to Service Mode 40 for the procedure to set
the temperature.
Checking the Current Temperature
The temperature inside the machine can be viewed
from the outside by pressing and holding the * key
for degrees °F or # key for degrees °C.
Refrigeration Driver Board (RDB)
The Refrigeration Driver Board (P/N 80492751) is
located inside the power supply box. The RDB has
thecapabilitytomaintaintwotemperatures,however
in this design, only the lower zone is monitored.
Power and communication to operate the RDB is
supplied via the MDB connector on the logic board
usingacommunications cable. Power to operatethe
refrigeration unit is supplied to the Refrigeration
Driver Board immediately after the EMI filter and is
switched on and off by a relay on the Refrigeration
Driver Board.
Temperature Probe
The temperature probe (P/N 13600001-01) is
located in the cabinet below the bottom shelf on the
right hand side, just below the evaporator coil. The
probe is connected to JP3 on the RDB. An
unplugged or open temperature sensor probe will
display as -9ºF (-9ºC). A shorted probe will display
as 99ºF (37ºC).
For complete pin-outs of the Refrigeration Driver
Board, see the Troubleshooting Section of this
manual.
Health Control Check
Use this procedure to verify proper health control
operation.
1. Access Mode 40 and set the temperature to
food.
2. EnableHealth Shutdown in Mode 42, besureto
set all selections in the machine to on by

5. Unplug the door switch from P2 (Service) of the
logic board to simulate door closure.
6. Let the cabinet get warm.
7. Power the machine back up and within 3
minutes the machine should go into health
shutdown. The display should now show
“Selection 1XX Out of Service”. Note: If the
cabinet is not allowed to warm long enough the
machinewillnot shut down until thetemperature
has been high for 15 consecutive minutes.
8. Turn machine off, plug the compressor back in,
turn machine back on.
