1. Power Requirements and Helpful Suggestions
*DO NOT PLUG THE MACHINE INTO AN EXTENSION CHORD* Additionally, VC strongly recommends ensuring the outlet that the machine is plugged into has its own dedicated breaker switch with a minimum of 20 AMPS & 120 Volts.
*OPTIONAL* We strongly suggest plugging in a surge protector between your machine plug & outlet.
This will protect your machine from any damages that could come from power outages, tripped breakers, or other electrical surges that may occur at any given time at a location.
2. Prepping Money Systems
- Unload products from a selection.
- Make purchases from the empty selection using only nickels, then only dimes, then only quarters.
- Do this until there are 2 rolls of coins for each corresponding tube.
It's best to perform this action when the machine is not stocked with product yet OR you could make sure one of your selections are not yet loaded with product and simply use this selection only while following the next steps.
IF you choose to first load product in your machine before loading your coin acceptor, we suggest leaving one of your highest selections without product to complete the coin stocking process faster.
Close your vending machine door and begin by making purchases using Nickels until all nickels have been inserted into the vending machine. Repeat this step for dimes & quarters.
To know how many coins you will need to load into your coin acceptor, simply count how many Coin Tubes you have in your coin acceptor - you will need 2 rolls of coins for each coin tube you see.
Example 1: 3-Tube Coin Acceptor (1 Quarter Tube, 1 Dime Tube & 1 Nickel) = 2 rolls of Quarters ($20.00), 2 rolls of Dimes ($10.00) & 2 rolls of Nickels ($4.00)... $34.00 total in change.
Example 2 (Coin Configuration may vary): 4-Tube Coin Acceptor (2 Quarter Tubes, 1 Dime Tube & 1 Nickel) = 4 rolls of Quarters ($40.00), 2 rolls of Dimes ($10.00) & 2 rolls of Nickels ($4.00)... $54.00 total in change.See page _ in manual for instructions on how to load your drink vending machine.
