LOADING
Once identified the type of product to be dispensed for a
certain selection, the vending machine can be loaded.
The sliding support (see Fig. 11) can be used as bearing
surface for the product containers, thus making loading
operationseasier.
To load the dispensing module for cans, place the cans
sideways at the chute inlet and let them roll down. It is not
important which side the top of the can is facing.
Should a product chute be completely empty (for ex.
whenfirstinstallingthemachine),afterloadingmakea
selection to bring the first can into release position.
To correctly load the products to be dispensed in the
columns, do as follows:
- open the bottle retaining gate by sliding it inside the
guides toward the left;

2 - Bottle retaining gate
3 - Gate sliding guide
4 - "Empty" warning device
- load one, two or four items in a line on top of the rotor
(bottles must be loaded with the top facing the back of
thecolumn).
- load the next rows, alternating right and left if it is a
doublecolumn.
Special care must be taken when loading columns
fittedwith the bottleguides.
If a double column, back and front rows must be loaded
evenly, so that the stacks of bottles are constantly kept at
the same level.

If a single column, a plastic diaphragm, hooked to the
upper side of the column.
In order to correctly load the column, do as follows:
- release the diaphragm by lifting it by its grip;
- load some bottles in the back row (to half height) and
positionthe diaphragm against it;
- load the bottles in the front row;
- complete loading of the back row and re-hook the
diaphragm.
- complete loading of the column.
After completely loading the machine:
- close the retaining gate:
- after all loading operations make a test selection for
eachproduct.
Allloadingoperationsmustbecarriedoutasquicklyas
possible, to limit as much as possible the increase of
temperatureinside the refrigerated boxand therefore
powerconsumption.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Before any cleaning or maintenance operations, discon-
nect the machine from the mains power supply.
Undernocircumstancesshouldsprayedwaterbeused
to wash the machine.
MAINTENANCE TO THE COOLING UNIT
Condensedwaterwithintherefrigeratedboxisdrainedinto
the cup placed in the compressor compartment, and then
it evaporate because of the heat generated by the con-
densercoil.
However it is advisable to periodically check that there in
not excessive water in the cup; in this case check for any
cracks or loosening of the refrigerated box seals.
- Periodically, or in the case of product breakage, the
cup must be cleaned to prevent mould and unpleasant
odour.
- Ensure that there is no buildup of dirt between the
condenserblades (brushthe front partregularly) asthis
may lead to poor air suction resulting in rapid reduction
ofcoolingperformance.
- Do not use sharp tools to clean the evaporator or the
condenser.
Donotplaceanyproductsintheareaaroundtheevapora-
tor,asthiswouldhindertheflowofcoldair, whichmust be
allowed to flow freely, otherwise ice may build up on the
evaporatorsurface.
PERIODICAL CLEANING
Clean the galvanised parts and the anti-friction elements
(seeFig.10)withlukewarmwaterandmilddetergent;then
rinsethoroughly andwipedry carefully.
WhencleaningmetalpartsDONOTuseanydetergent

Glass bottles can be dispensed only from single
columns.
To adjust a column for dispensing a certain product, the
typeandpositionofthefollowingelementsmustbechecked:
- rotor insert and side spacer, according to the product
diameter;
- product side support and motor cam, according to the
number of rows and to the product height;
- anti-friction elements and column backing, according to
the number of rows and to the product height;
- if the bottles have a long tapered neck, the positioning
of the bottle guides;
- for cans only, correct position of anti-theft plates.
ROTORINSERT AND SIDESPACERS
Accordingto thediameterthe appropriaterotor insertand
side spacers must be fitted.

To install or replace the rotor insert and the spacers it is
advisabletoremovetherotorfromthemachine,proceeding
as follows:
- undo the screws securing the release motor and extract
the assembly;
- push and extract the insert from the rotor;
- replace the insert and apply pressure to fit it into the
rotor, ensuring that it is properly secured in all points;
- to adjust the rotor for dispensing cans in four rows, it
is necessary to insert three anti-theft plates into the
special slots (see Fig. 17). The plates stop the cans
from sliding in the rotor when this is partially empty.
The plates must inserted into the slots B-D-E for 250
cc cans and into the slots A-C-E for 330 and 355 cc
cans.
There is no need for inserts or side spacers for products
with 71-72-73 mm diameter.

ANTI-FRICTIONELEMENTS
The anti-friction elements are frames made of special
plastic material which facilitate product sliding.
Fordispensingbottles theanti-frictionelements arefitted
onthedoublecolumnbafflesandonthecorrespondingleft
handwall.
The anti-friction elements are not necessary for single
columns or for dispensing cans.
Four anti-friction elements are used for each double col-
umn. According to the height of the bottles and to the
numberof rows,they are installedas indicatedin Fig.21,
using the slots on the baffle.
The cam slots must be closed with the removable inserts
fitted on the cam as indicated in Fig. 20.
The cam slots are identified by numbers stamped on the
cam. The following table indicates the different configuration
according to the number of rows for each column.

Afterreplacingthebackpanel,loadthecolumnfollow-
ing the same procedure as for first loading.
For double columns, as well as hooking the guides onto
the numbered slots, the most suitable spacer must be
identified and therefore the guides adjusted.
The anti-friction elements must be fit between the bottle
guides.
The correct distance is obtained when the bottles fall and
stay horizontal right down to the rotor.
