OVERVIEW
This manual covers Installaon, Setup, Programming and Service instrucons. It is extremely important that
this manual be read thoroughly prior to commissioning the vending machine in the eld. This will ensure a
sasfactory long-term performance.
The vending machine consists of two (2) separate cabinets that are installed together via mechanical means
and connected via electrical connecons to operate as ONE unit.
The Snack Vendor (JDLS) consists of three (3) trays. The rst and second trays have 4 selecons each (Tray 1
– 111, 113, 115, 117, Tray 2 – 121, 123, 125, 127). The third tray has 8 selecons (130 through 137). The top
two trays are normally used for products that are wider such as chips, pastries etc. and the third tray is used
for Confeconary items such as candy bars. The Snack Vendor (JDLS) also houses all the payment mechanisms
and electronic Vending Machine Controller (VMC) on the right side of the cabinet. The payment mechanisms,
electronic components (such as VMC) and transformer are installed on a vercal shelf that slides out for easy
access. The connectors to connect the Beverage Unit (JDLD) are also provided in this vercal shelf of the Snack
Vendor (JDLS).
The Beverage Vendor (JDLD) is designed with a vercal drop system. The Beverage Vendor also houses
the removable Refrigeraon System. The cabinet of the Beverage Vendor has a delivery system that has 7
selecons for Cans or Boles (140 through 146). The loading instrucons are given in subsequent secons.
CAUTION!
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized service
agent or a similarly qualied person to avoid electrical hazards.
ATTENTION!
This dispensing machine is very heavy. Ensure that sucient personnel are available for
liing or transporng the machine. Use proper liing procedures and equipment.
CAUTION!
Certain components of this machine are sensive to stac electricity. Precauons for
handling sensive devices should be observed when handling these items.
ATTENTION!
Leave at least 2” (5cm) between the back of the dispensing machine and the wall to allow for
air ow.
CAUTION!
R290 refrigerant is used in this machine. R290 is a puried form of propane and can cause a
re or minor explosion if precauons are not observed.

COIL ADJUSTMENT
If you are required by a locaon to vend a product that does not t into the standard coil installed, you may
need to order a dierent coil and install it. To replace a coil:
1. Remove the Coil from the Coil Driver by liing the back of the coil up o the coil driver. You will need to
move the boom of the coil clear of the coil driver to completely remove the coil.
2. Align the new coil end with the front of the tray, which gives the coil beer contact with the product.
The posion of the coil in the coil driver is adjustable to assist you in aligning the new coil at the
front of the tray. See Figure 9.
