Coinco Guardian G6XUS 6000-XL 6-Tube MDB Coin Changer
The Coinco Guardian G6XUS 6000-XL is a six-tube MDB coin changer for multi-price vending machines. G6XUS is the U.S. MDB model in the Guardian 6000XL line. The XL update improved the payout assembly over the original Guardian 6000.
It electronically validates coins, routes accepted coins into six self-replenishing tubes or the cash box, and pays change with a heavy-duty single-motor ratchet drive. A swing-out illuminated cassette speeds loading, and individual tubes snap in and out without tools.
