I have a Dixie-Narco, DNCB 5011 with the movable "walls" at the back of each column. The logic of loading two or three cans deep escapes me, however. I can't see how to do that without vending all the bottom row of cans at the same time. To see if I was missing something, I tried it and it did vend all bottom cans. To fix this, I now only load one can deep. Is there something I'm missing in my "newness" with these things? Is there a way to use all the cooling space yet still vend only one drink at a time? Thanks.
 
You need a shim kit... Im guessing you had bottles in there before?

my dixie has cans 3 deep... the shim kit mounts on the side of the can "chamber"... and only one can drops at a time..

btw... I ordered my shim kit... I put 2 selections of 16 ounce bottles.. 1 of the big gator aid , and the rest 12 ounce cans.. seems like my shim kit was about $100

The inside of your door doesn't have a chart or part number for the shim kit needed?

you need to adjust the cams on the vend motor, there is about 3 or 4 diff adjustment spaces on each cam making the motor spin alittle at a time to vend each can hope this helps Ron
 
I have a Vendo multi-price machine, and the cams have 4 settings, none of which will vend a 12oz can stacked 2 or more deep. The Vendo cams are marked 1 2 3 4, for the number of products stacked. It holds 4 cans deep, but won't vend them that way. I assume I need a kit. The machine came with these two things....I'll photograph them and post them...not sure what they are for. Maybe the are the can shims?
 
I can get 16oz cans to vend 2-deep. I sell Monster and Rockstar in the 16oz cans, and they drop just fine. I guess it's just the short 12 oz cans that the machine does not like.

does your vendo have the removable bar that runs across the bottom were your can/bottles sit? if so you will see that 2 has 3 spaces it can move it also has 2 diffrent clips that go on it.one for bottles one for cans hope this helps
