      Feed Fork/Arm Replacement on Dr. Dish Plus Models - Home, CT+, All-Star+, Rebel+, FCLTY, and CT Models

      Replacing Feed Fork/Arm on Dr. Dish Home, CT+, All-Star+, Rebel+, FCLTY, and CT Models

      To replace the feed fork/arm on your Dr. Dish Home, CT+, All-Star+, Rebel+, FCLTY, or CT  please follow the below instructions!

       

      1. Unplug your machine.
      2. Remove both shrouds

         

      3. Disconnect the spring
        1. Reference the below image and using a needle nose pliers pull the spring's loop off the tab.
        2. Once that is disconnected use a 8mm wrench/socket and a 4mm Allen Wrench to remove the "shoulder bolt". Remember the order of the washers, they will need to be installed the same way with the new feeder fork/arm.
        3. Feed Fork Replacment Labeling
      4. With the new feeder fork/arm sit it in place and reconnect the "shoulder bolt" and it's washers. 
        1. When tightening the shoulder bolt you make sure the feeder fork/arm doesn't wiggle back and forth but also don't tighten the bolt so much that the fork won't rock forward and backward. 
      5. Reconnect the front of the spring to the tab as shown in the picture above.
      6. If the spring fell off the machine you can see where the back of it connects in the image below.

      7. Testing the feed function using the integrated tablet, or the Dr. Dish Player App if you have a Dr. Dish Home machine

        1. From the home screen select More > Support > Troubleshooting > Diagnostics > Machine Commands

          1. Feed: Touch “Feed “and it will cycle the feed motor
          2. Does the feed arm/fork move when you touch feed?
            1. If not check to make sure the shoulder bolt isn't too tight.
