Back in 2006/7 I seem to remember Clenport Pringles were causing frequent problems. In those days I seem to remember operators used to remove the plastic cap from the pringles as they were loading. The problem was persistant and if that didn't fix it there is no cure for this machine. This was causing a major headache to Jamie Wallace who had a exclusive supply contract for the UK at the time and Beck Vending with whom he had a exclusive contract for the uk supply. Later Models were cured of this problem. I scrap any machine that jams persistantly and would advise you to do the same. It's not worth the aggro.
