Troubleshooting

Gumballs or sweets are not dispensing.

Ensure the dispenser wheel is adjusted correctly for the size of your sweets (max 20mm). Check that the coin, if used, is inserted fully and the key is rotated completely clockwise. Verify the machine is not overfilled.

Dispenser wheel is stuck or won't adjust.

Gently try to wiggle the adjustment mechanism. Consult the instruction sheet for specific troubleshooting steps for the dispenser wheel, as it may require careful manipulation.

Machine dispenses multiple sweets at once.

The dispenser wheel may need to be adjusted to a smaller opening. Ensure sweets are of a uniform size and not too small for the current setting.

Coin is stuck in the slot.

Do not force the coin. Try gently tapping the machine or carefully using a thin, flat object to dislodge the coin without damaging the mechanism. Refer to the instruction sheet for specific coin mechanism guidance.

Glass globe is cracked or broken.

Contact customer support for potential replacement parts. Handle with extreme care during cleaning and refilling to prevent future damage.
