I have an old Pepsi machine I want to put into service. I need information on this coin acceptor. It reads National Currency Systems, A Division Of Crane Co. Model Cointron 500-USV. It is set for .25 and need to raise the price. Can anyone help me or point me in another direction?

Most older machines have single price coin mechs. The way to set the price is to flip open the head on the coin mech. Then you will see a row of dip switches in a row white in color. When you read the switches left to right they are 5, 10, 20, 40, 80. In this example if you want to vend at 65 cents you push up the switch number 1,3,4 which adds up to 65 cents. Hope this helps............Nick
