USING THE VENDING MACHINE FOR
PACKAGED PRODUCTS
A different sale price can be set for each product selection
by the machine electronic control. The various functions
are programmed through the selection keypad without any
need for additional equipment.
All models are equipped with variable configuration trays,
adding or removing dividers, spirals and ratiomotors;
therefore the machine can be easily suited to specific
needs.
All trays are preset for the operation of up to 6 selections
(maximum setting).
The trays are equipped with independent motors and
spirals; each selection will continue its operation autono-
mously even if the other selections are disconnected.
This vending machine should only be used to sell and
dispense packaged products that do not need refrig-
eration to be preserved.
Strictly comply to the producer’s specifications regarding Fig. 2

POWER CONSUMPTION
The machine power consumption depends on many fac-
tors, such as temperature and ventilation of the room
where it is installed, temperature of loaded products,
internal temperature of the refrigerated box.
Under average conditions, and namely:
- ambient temperature: 20° C
- refrigerated box temperature: 8° C
- temperature of loaded products
(machine completely empty) 20° C
the following power consumption levels resulted:
- hourly stand-by power consumption 151 Wh
The above power consumption calculated from average
data should only be taken as an indication.

CHANGEABLE COMBINATION LOCK Fig. 4

Some machine models are fitted with a changeable com-

bination lock.
The lock is supplied with two silver colour keys to be used
for normal opening and closing.
The lock can be customised by using a kit, available as
accessory, which permits the combination of the lock to be
changed.
This kit includes a change key (black) for the current lock
combination as well as the change (gold) and use (silver)
keys for the new combination.
Sets of change and use keys with other combinations can
be supplied on request.
Additional sets of use keys (silver) may be requested,
indicating the combination stamped on the keys.
Generally, only the use key (silver) is used, while the
combination change keys (gold) can be kept as spares.
Do not use the change key for normal opening, as it
may damage the lock.
To change combination do as follows:
- insert the current change key (black) and rotate to the
change position (reference notch at 120°);
- remove the current change key and insert the new
change key (gold);
- rotate to the close position (0°) and remove the change
key.
The lock will now have the new combination.
The keys with the old combination cannot be used for
the new combination.

 It is also possible to insert a divider in the already installed
spirals (see Fig. 7).
LOADING AND CLEANING

MAIN SWITCH
When extracting the sliding compartment, a special switch
(see Fig. 28) disconnects the power from the machine
electrical system to allow maintenance and cleaning
operations in full safety.
The only parts that stay energised are those protected
by covers and carrying a plate with the warning
“disconnect the power before removing the cover”.

CONFIGURING THE SPIRALS

According to the size of the products to be dispensed,
each machine can be fitted with a variable number of trays
Fig. 7
(maximum 6), compartments and with dispensing spirals
of different pitch. 1 - Spiral
2 - Divider

As standard feature or using special kits, the machine can

be equipped with small compartments, suitable for dis-
pensing cans, plastic bottles up to 69 mm dia., 0.2 litre
Tetra-Paks.
I cassetti così equipaggiati si possono riconoscere dalla
forma del rialzo prodotti (vedi fig. 8).
Some types of bottles can be dispensed without the aid of
raised supports.
Most bottles can be dispensed without using any specific
accessories, loading the bottles so that the top slides
inside the compartment’s channel.

2 - Mobile walls
3 - Right-hand spiral
4 - Left-hand spiral

The spirals can be housed either in 152 mm compartments

(two spirals, right-hand and left-hand, in each compart-
ment) for large size products, or into 75 mm compart-
ments (one right-hand spiral in each compartment) for
small size products.
When dispensing sticks of candies or similar products, it
is possible to set the rotation of the spirals to 180° instead
of 360° for the 75 mm compartments and use a special
right hand spiral fitted with a divider (see Fig. 6), doubling
the capacity of the compartment.

HYGIENE AND CLEANING All products should load easily, do not insert products
which are too large for the space.
According to current health and safety regulations, the
operator of vending machines is responsible for their
hygiene and cleaning.
It is advisable to use sanitising products (chlorine based
detergent or similar) to clean all surfaces even if not in
direct contact with food.
Some parts of the machine can be damaged by strong
detergents.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage
to persons caused by the noncompliance with current
regulations.
At least every six months it is necessary to clean the
ventilation grilles of the cooling system using a vacuum
cleaner or compressed air.
Under no circumstances should sprayed water be
used.
Before any maintenance operation always switch the
machine off.

preventing the free fall of the product.
Fold the seal towards the front of the unit and upwards
before inserting the product in the spiral.
More fragile products must be placed on the lower
trays to prevent damage when they drop.

CONTROLS AND INFORMATION The cooling unit is located in the lower part of the cabinet.
When removing the cover of the last ventilation grille (see
Fig. 15) the air circulation ensures a uniform temperature
inside the refrigerated box, between 9° and 12° C.
When covering the ventilation grille, the temperature
inside the refrigerated box is differentiated between the
upper three trays (12°-16° C) and the lower three trays
(8°-10° C).
The cooling unit is defrosted automatically every 6 hours.
However, the timing is programmable

 MAINTENANCE
The maintenance operations described in this chapter
should be carried out with the machine energised and
therefore by qualified personnel, who are trained in the
correct use of the machine and are aware of the specific
risks of such condition.
To energize the system with the open door, simply insert
the special key into the switch on the payment system
compartment door (see Fig. 28).
Inside the machine, the only parts that stay energised
are those protected by covers and carrying a plate with
the warning “Disconnect the power before removing
the protective cover”.
Before removing such protective covers the external
switch must be disconnected.
