  5. For gumballs, capsules, or bouncy balls, use the gumball wheel and brush plate. Install the riser first, making sure the opening of the riser faces the front of the vendor. Next, install the gumball wheel so one of the vending holes is positioned over the opening in the riser. Then install the gumball brush plate.
  6. Loosen the adjustment screw on top of the gumball wheel located next to each ball cavity. Turn the adjustment wheel to set the opening according to the product being vended. The springs on the gumball brush plate must face the coin mechanism/front of the vendor.

Once the portion vends at the desired setting, finish filling the vendor with product, replace the lid, and install the lock.

Note: Do not overtighten the lock. A snug fit is sufficient.
