SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE

Routine Maintenance

Routine maintenance will improve performance
and extend the working life of your COINCO
GLOBAL2 ® changer and reduce the need for
more involved repairs. Frequency of mainte-
nance will depend on environment and number
of transactions. For normal environments,
cleaning is recommended every six months.
However, in harsh environments with lots of
dirt and dust, cleaning is recommended every
three months.
The coin changer should be kept in its original
shipping carton when not in use. This will keep
the changer clean and offer the best protection
for the unit.

Cleaning

A majority of your COINCO GLOBAL2
changer is manufactured from a high-quality
plastic, which should only be cleaned with a
warm water and mild detergent solution.
CAUTION: • Never submerge unit in water.
• Do not use petroleum solvents, steel
wool, scouring pads, or a metal brush
for cleaning.
• Do not spray any part of the changer
with any type of lubricant.
Since all coins share a common coin ramp,
heavy usage or a dirty environment can result in
dirt build-up. To clean the coin ramp, lift the
acceptor gate upward and diagonally to the
right. Hold gate to prevent it from snapping
back. Wipe the exposed coin ramp and inner
surface with a damp cloth, being cautious not to
harm the coin stabilizer (a thin piece of
polyester film). If the coin stabilizer looks
buckled, wrinkled or is not firmly adhered to the
changer, replace it at this time.
NOTE: Not all COINCO GLOBAL2
are equipped with a coin stabilizer.
For detailed cleaning of the acceptor, remove
the front cover by opening the coin tube loading
door and wedging thumb underneath front
cover. To remove cover, push out and up. Next,
remove the intermediate cover by depressing
snap on right side and pivot intermediate cover
away from unit. You are now able to fully clean
both the intermediate cover (paying particular
attention to the mirrored surface), as well as the
interior coin rail and gates. (Use caution when
removing the metal debouncer. Due to its small
size, it can be easily misplaced.) Reassemble
front of acceptor in reverse order of
disassembly.
