What is this booklet for?
Since your merchandiser came equipped with a can or food module, the Snack Center
Setup and Operator's Guide has instructed you to get this booklet to continue your setup.
Follow the steps for setting up your can or food module, then return to the spot in the
Setup and Operator's Guide that sent you here. You may notice some other books in
your plastic bag, too. The Programming Guide is a reference for you to use later on, after
your machine is up and running. Use the Programming Guide to use some of the ad-
vanced features included with your machine.

DON'T THROW THIS BOOKLET AWAY!! Even though you finished with it today, you may
need to set your merchandiser up again. In that case, you'll wish you still had this! Put it
back in the plastic bag and store it inside the cabinet. That way, it is readily available at a
future time.

The merchandiser is supplied with a service cord for the country of use and is terminated in a grounding type
plug. The wall receptacle used for this merchandiser must be properly polarized, grounded, and of the correct
voltage. Operating the merchandiser from a source of low voltage will VOID YOUR WARRANTY. Each mer-
chandiser should have its own electrical circuit and that circuit should be protected with a circuit breaker or
fuse conforming to local regulations.

Voltage Check - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and NEUTRAL ter-
minals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt,
60 Hz locations, or 220- 240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz locations.

Polarity Check - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and GROUND ter-
minals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt,
60 Hz locations, or 220- 240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz locations.

Noise Potential Check - Place the test leads of a voltmeter across the NEUTRAL and
GROUND terminals of the wall receptacle. The meter should indicate 0 volts ac. A mea-
surement greater than 1.5 - 2.0 volts ac could result in problems for the merchandiser' s
electronic circuitry caused by electrical noise.

Any deviation from these requirements could result in unreliable performance from your merchandiser.

• You can position this merchandiser anywhere in a bank of machines. It can even be placed on an end
flush against a side wall.
• The 167 and 168 merchandisers should be located at least one inch away from the back wall.
• The 764, 765, 784, 785, 786, 787, 788, 789, 797, and 798 merchandisers should be placed at least six
inches away from the back wall. This will provide adequate air circulation for the refrigeration unit.
• The 764, 765, 787, 788, 789, 797, and 798 merchandisers will operate more efficiently when placed in
a shaded location.
• There should be enough room in front of the merchandiser for the door to move freely.

These instructions will guide you through setting up your trays for vending. You will be asked to deter-
mine if your tray can physically hold the products you intend to vend. If not, you will be directed to other
procedures which will help you get them set up. Follow these nine steps for each tray in your machine:

1. Make sure the tray is in the loading position.

2. Is the column wide enough for the intended product? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise,
set up your tray to vend wider products (see below, this page). When you' re done, return to step 3
in this procedure.
3. Will the products fit between the spiral turns? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, change
the spiral.
4. Will the product pass under the tray immediately above? If so, proceed to the next step. Other-
wise, reposition the tray and guides.
5. Will the product touch products on either side? If not, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, install a
product spacer.
6. Load products in the tray.
7. Return the tray to the vending position.
8. Install the price rolls.
9. Install the selection ID numbers.

L$-& /0&J& =%1F& ="&M$,8& N*8$&!%"8)2-.

The following steps will help you configure your tray to vend wide products. When you have completed
the procedures called out in each step, return to the next step in the procedure. When you are done with
the entire wide product steps, return to the set-up procedures above.

1. Remove the tray from the merchandiser and place on a flat surface.
2. Based on the size of the product you want to vend, decide how many spiral positions it will occupy.
Please remember that the leftmost spiral in the group must have an even ID number (0, 2, 4, etc.)
For example, if a product is three spirals wide, the left spiral will be ID number 0, and the right spiral
will be ID number 2. Be careful how wide you set up for, because really wide products could get
hung up in the delivery door.
3. Remove the column dividers inside the group. In the example of three spiral positions, you would
be removing the dividers between spiral ID numbers 0 and 1, and 1 and 2.
4. If your group only consists of 2 spirals, replace the rightmost motor with a spiral bearing and gear,
and install a gear on the leftmost motor. Skip to step 8.
5. Remove all spirals in the group except the leftmost spiral.
6. Do one of the following:
!" #$%&'()%*)'(+%,!-%!.%'11%.(/01)%'$%-+2)!3-%456%76%189":%)1/';1%8,1%,!).1--1-%$)'/%!33%/'8')-%2.

7. Install a spiral at the rightmost position in your group. Make sure it has the same product capacity
and is opposite to the one in the leftmost position.
8. Return the tray to the merchandiser.
9. Electronically couple the motors as needed (see your Programming Guide for information).
10. Return to step 3 in the Set Up Trays to Vend Products procedure, above.

WHEN ARE GEARS USED?

• Gears are used to mechanically couple the spirals together.

• This happens whenever you have two spirals and only one motor for vending a selection.

WHERE ARE THE GEARS PLACED?

• The gear is placed between the back of the tray and the spiral coupler.

HOW IS THE GEAR ORIENTED?

• There are two possible orientations for the gear:

BACK WALL
OF TRAY

GEAR

ORIENTATION 1 ORIENTATION 2

• There are two rules to follow when orienting gears:

RULE 1 - The gears for selections next to each other cannot use the same orientation.
RULE 2 - All gears for a single selection must use the same orientation.

This merchandiser can be adjusted to vend taller products. Some guidelines must be followed:

• Keep in mind that when you increase the product height available to a tray by lowering it, you will be
decreasing the product height available to the tray below.

• If a tray is in the lowest position, the tray below it should not be in the highest position.

• If a tray is in the highest position, the tray above it should not be in the lowest position.

• You will need to experiment with various tray positions to get the best results for your products.

CAUTION
The trays in a model 764, 765, 787, 788, or 789 merchandiser should not be
positioned over an open air discharge vent.

NOTE
Tray movement is limited because the tray harness will limit the amount of
travel available to the tray guide rails.

Proceed as follows:

1. Remove the tray from the merchandiser. See REMOVING A TRAY.

2. Remove the screw that secures the right tray guide rail to the front guide mounting channel as
shown.
3. Tap up on the guide rail and unseat the guide rail tabs from the channel slots.

LOADING A TRAY WITH PRODUCTS IN GENERAL:

• See PRODUCT PUSHER USAGE for spirals with capacity of 11, 13, or 15.
• See SPIRAL WALL RETAINER USAGE for spirals with capacity of 20, 25, 30, or 38.
• Begin loading products at the front of the tray and work toward the back. Position the product so
the package rests on the tray. DO NOT force a product into a spiral.
• If the fit is too tight or too loose, change the spiral size. See REMOVING AND INSTALLING A SPI-
RAL.
• Be sure there are no empty positions between products in each spiral.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Bagged Products - Position package upright, then push the tops slightly toward the rear of the tray.
Also, see PRODUCT PUSHER USAGE.

Thin Packages - Position the package upright. Also, see SPIRAL WALL RETAINER USAGE.

The product pusher can also be used with other spiral and types of prod-
ucts.

A bag of product pushers has been shipped with the merchandiser. Additional product
pushers are available from the National Vendors' parts department. To use a product pusher, snap it on
the spiral as shown. You can adjust the product pusher by moving it around on the spiral to achieve the
best vending results.

inches away from the back wall. This will provide adequate air circulation for the refrigeration unit.
• The 764, 765, 787, 788, 789, 797, and 798 merchandisers will operate more efficiently when placed in
a shaded location.
• There should be enough room in front of the merchandiser for the door to move freely.

with the door fully closed. Adjust the front legs only
until the cabinet is reasonably level (figure 1).
2. Hold the door open about 4 inches. (This relieves any LEG
stress the door may be placing on the cabinet.) CRANE NATIONAL VENDORS

WARNING
Have an assistant hold the merchandiser while you
adjust the leg levelers.

3. Adjust the back legs so that the back leg leveler on the LEG
LEVELER
hinge side is off the floor just enough so a piece of pa-
per can slide under it with only a bit of resistance (fig-
ure 2).
4. For proper weight distribution on all four legs, raise the
back leg on the hinge side by unscrewing the leveler
1½ turns.

NOTE
You may need to use pliers or channel locks to loosen FRO
the leg levelers. NT

A slight slope from front to back will improve the draining of

condensate from merchandisers with refrigerating units. When
the merchandiser is part of a bank of machines, level it in refer-
ence to the other machines. After leveling is complete, check
that the door operates easily.

The air discharge and return vents are located in the right front and rear side wall. The vents are ad-
justed by loosening the screw and sliding the air duct shutter up or down as required. With the shutter
all the way up, the vent is fully open. The vent is closed when the shutter is all the way down. Ideally,
the temperature at the top tray should be the same as that
at the bottom tray. Using a thermometer to monitor tem- AIR DUCT
perature, adjust the air discharge and return vents until the SHUTTER
temperatures are as close together as possible.

Programming
The Service Keypad

The service keypad (shown on the left) is your major tool to program
your merchandiser. If you just need to get your merchandiser up and
running, you only have to set prices. That procedure is given below.
For a thorough explanation of how to do all the custom programming
features available to you, consult your Programming Guide. It will tell
you how to:
• Set up custom time-of-day vending periods;
• Look at sales and vending data;
• Test various machine functions;
• Customize trays for vending unique products;
• Enter custom display messages;
• And much more!

products, and set the prices. Before you lock the door and move on, you should check to see if your
merchandiser will vend products. In case of problems, perform the operational readiness checks begin-
ning on the next page.

NOW WHAT?
There are many things you can do with your merchandiser to make it more
flexible. For example, if you have a Refreshment Center, you can custom-
ize the hot drink recipes. Refer to the Programming Guide for this and
other procedures.
