INTRODUCTION TO THE UNITS
There are two (2) styles of brewers covered in this manual.
The "front loading" MODEL 8516 is a unit that posi­tions to the rear of the counter and is completely operated by store personnel. All operations such as brewing, keeping coffee warm, serving coffee and drawing of hot water are performed from the front of the unit.
A companion "rear loading" MODEL 8518 is a unit that may be positioned at the front of a counter. This unit differs from MODEL 8516, as the hot water faucet and the warmer stations remain at the front of the unit, while the brewing and control functions have been placed in the back of the brewer making operation of the unit easily available, and a step saver for store personnel.
MODEL 8516 and 8518 UNITS:
A. Bot h units have two (2) independent brewing
sections in each brewer,
1. One brewing section has a water faucet for drawing cups of hot water while the other section is for brewing only.
2. In either unit, one brewing section can be used alone or both may be used at the same time.
3. Each unit has six (6) warmer stations for keeping decanters of coffee hot and available.
4. All Brew Chambers and Decanters are readily interchangeable between section to section of a brewer or from brewer to brewer.
5. Each brewing station of a unit requires a
separate:
a. Power source of 115/230 Volts, A.C.,
60 Hertz, SINGLE PHASE, Four(4)
Wire Supply capable of handling a
20 AMP load.
b. Water input line connected to a single
water source hose line of 3/8" minimum size.
PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GUIDE TO THE INITIAL INSTALLATION and TANK FILLING SEQUENCE.
1. Check the Tank Heater Switch in both brewing sec ­tions of the unit to be sure it is in the OFF position. They must remain OFF from Step 1 thru Step No.
9. A Tank Heater Switch controls the main heating element in each brewing section of the unit, and it must not be energized before the tank is filled with water, thru Step No. 5. The Tank Heater Switch also serves to de-energize the Brew Start Switch, preventing brew cycles of cold water while the Tank Heater Switch is in the OFF position.
2. Connect each brewing section of the unit to a power source, see Electrical Installation on Page 4.
3. Connect each brewing section of the unit to the water supply line, see instructions on Page 5.
4. Slide both Brew Chambers in place and SET AN EMPTY DECANTER UNDER EACH BREW CHAMBER.
5. Pour a full decanter of water thru the pour-in door on top of each brewing section of the unit. Wait two (2) minutes and repeat. Repeat a third time for the non-faucet brewing section of the unit. Water will start flowing into the decanter during the third cycle (second cycle from water faucet brewing sec tion) indicating that the tank is filled with water.
6. After water flow stops, remove, empty and replace the decanter under each brew chamber.
7. Plug in both power cords to the source receptacles. Water should be connected to the unit and ready to go. Recheck and correct any leaks.
8. Turn on electric and water at source.
9. NOW — PRESS BOTH TANK HEATER SWITCHES TO ON position and leave them ON.
10. Proceed with initial Brew Cycle Set -up Instruction on Page 6, and then to Brewing of Coffee.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION for MODELS 8516 and 8518
IMPORTANT: Prior to starting the electrical hook-up, check power source and electrical receptacle for proper single phase voltage supply. Figure 3 details the power requirements of each brewing section of a unit.
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT TO A THREE (3) PHASE
POWER SOURCE OR ANY OTHER THAN AS NOTED
IN FIGURE 3, AS DAMAGES TO THE UNIT CAN
OCCUR THAT ARE NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF
THE MANUFACTURER OF THE UNIT
There are two (2) independent brewing sections in each unit, and each brewing section draws 20 AMPS of power. Each brewing section must be connected to a separate power source, capable of supplying:
115/230 Volts, A.C. 60 Hz., Single Phase, four (4) Wire, 20 AMP service.
For power line cord, use #12 gauge wire suitable for 75 degrees C. All wiring must be in accordance with local electrical codes.
1. Do not assume the GREEN earth ground wire can be used as a neutral. The GREEN earth ground is a protection circuit not intended as part of the power lines.
2. Recheck at this point — the tank heater and operation switch, on the front panel of each brewing sec tion of the unit, must be in the OFF position.
3. To install power cords, remove rear and bottom cover panels of the unit for access to the power junction blocks. See Figure 3. A separate power cord must be wired into each junction block thru either the rear or thru the bottom opening. If bot tom access is to be used, remove the two (2) snap-in Plug Buttons, and transfer them to the power cord entrance holes in the rear of the unit.
4. Recheck the Tank Heater Switch in each section — it must be in the OFF position. Plug in both power cords, check voltages at both terminal blocks to be certain each conforms to Figure 3 designations.
NOTE: At this point, unplug each power cord and go to Step 3 of Initial Installation Instruction Guide.

CONNECTING WATER SUPPLY LINE TO THE UNIT
Complete the electrical installation
before starting the water connections.
WARNING:
DO NOT PLUG IN OR ENERGIZE THIS UNIT
UNTIL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ARE
READ AND FOLLOWED.
Before starting water hook-up, check to be sure both power cords of the unit are unplugged.
Unit must be installed on a water line with a flowing pressure between 20 PSI and 90 PSI. If water pressure does not fall into this range, or varies greatly a pressure regulator should be installed.
IMPORTANT: Flush the water line a minimum of three (3) minutes before connecting to the unit. The unit should be connected to COLD WATER.
Each brewing section connects to a short length of 1/4" O.D. tubing, preformed to go beneath the unit. Each preformed tube connects to a 1/4" Male Flare leg of a "TEE" fitting. The remaining leg of the "TEE" fitting is a 3/8" Male Flare that connects to a single 3/8" incoming water supply line, as shown in Figure 4.
After water hook -up is completed, continue to follow Pre-lnstallation Guide Instructions No. 4 thru 10.
5
INITIAL BREWING CYCLE SET-UP
and OPERATION GUIDE
1. Unit is now connected to power and water. Both water tanks have been filled. The Tank Heater Switch on each brewing section is in the ON posi­tion and the water is heating in both brewing sections.
2. On Water Faucet Section of each unit, draw off an ounce or two of water from the faucet, two or three times during the initial tank heating process, to relieve air and expansion pressure in the hot water faucet lines. This relieves "spitting with pressure," when a cup of hot water is drawn from a newly installed unit.
3. Initial heating time, at start up, will range from six (6) to eight (8) minutes. The GREEN signal light will turn ON when the water reaches brewing temperature.
4. When GREEN signal light turns ON, press brew start switch. Hot water will start to flow immediately and assure that the tank and system are full of water.
C. Turn Timer adjusting knob: The Timer is
very sensitive, so make adjustments one (1) mark on the dial at a time. A one (1) mark change on the dial approximates three (3) ounces of water delivery change. The factory timer set ting is 38 seconds when the unit is operated on a flow pressure of 35 PSI to receive a 60 ounce water delivery.
1. Clockwise to INCREASE water volume, delivered during a brewing cycle or
2. Counter-clockwise to DECREASE the delivery.
D. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 until desired amount of water is dispensed during a brewing cycle.
5. Repeat Step 4. After water stops flowing, you should have a full decanter of water — 60 ounces. In each brewing sec tion, a water flow control valve and factory preset timer, control the exact amount of water to be delivered during each brewing cycle. If, after completing Step 4 the second time, the decanter is not full — 60 ounces of water, or tends to overflow, proceed as follows:
A. Check water supply line flowing pressure.
Brewer will not operate properly if the line pressure is below 20 PSI. (You may obtain your PSI pressure by inserting a gauge in the incoming water line at the back of the unit).
B. Remove the 2" Plug Button from access hole in
the cabinet front panels. Timer Knob and Face Plate are in clear view for easy adjustment.
LEVELING THE UNIT
A very important installation operation that must not be overlooked or ignored, is the "Leveling of the Unit." For proper unit operation, it is very important that the unit be level when it is standing in its proper operating position.
After adjustment of both brew-sections is completed and the GREEN signal lights have turned ON, you are ready to brew coffee.
6
BREWING OF COFFEE
1. Remove brew chamber from under Spray Head and place one (1) Paper Filter into Brew Chamber. Add your choice of a premeasured package of FINE GRIND coffee. Shake Brew Chamber to level off coffee.
NOTE: Use 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 ounces to begin brewing. Then, if stronger coffee is desired, use more (to taste) of fine grind coffee. Slide Brew Chamber in place.
3. Press Brew Switch. Hot water will start spraying over coffee grounds in Brew Chamber and coffee will start filling the decanter. When coffee stops flowing, the freshly brewed coffee is completed. IMMEDIATELY remove Brew Chamber and discard paper filter and used grounds.
4. When GREEN signal light relights again, Brewer will be ready for another brewing cycle.
To keep your coffee warm, the Brewers are equipped with electric warmers which are activated by a switch. A Red signal light will glow, indicating WHICH warmer is ON.
2. Place empty decant er under Brew Chamber.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS USE EMPTY DECANTER BEFORE STARTING A BREW CYCLE.
IMPORTANT:
1. Warmers should be turned OFF when not in
use.
2. Do not leave empty decanter on warmer that is
ON.
SERVICING INSIDE THE UNIT
To expose the timer, high limit thermostat, switches and wiring, etc. inside a unit section, the front panel must be removed.
To Remove Front Panel: A. Turn the two (2) pedestal warmer cover plates
counter-clockwise to remove them.
B. Remove the two (2) screws and clips from each
warmer well that holds the front panel in place.
C. Gently pull the front panel forward and lift it off
exposing the unit inside.
WATER FLOW DIAGRAM
PART I Sequence of Operations:
WATER FLOW FOR BREWING OPERATION
(Both Brewing Sections)
1. Pushing brew Start Switch energizes the Timer. The Timer then energizes the Solenoid Valve, allowing water to flow into the Basin Pan and then into the Hot Water Tank. The length of time the Solenoid Valve is energized is controlled by the Timer setting.
2. The water entering the Hot Water Tank from the Basin Pan, flows to the bottom of the Tank through the Water Inlet Tube.
3. The addition of water into the bottom of the Hot Water Tank causes the hot water at the top of the Tank to flow out through the Outlet Elbow of the Tank Cover, to the Spray Head.
PART II
Sequence of Operations:
WATER FLOW FOR FAUCET OPERATION
(Faucet Section Only)
1. The incoming cold water supply connects to a "T" Inlet Fitting on the Unit. Water flows from the "T" Inlet Fitting through the Inlet Tube, Needle Valve and Formed Inlet Tube into the input connection of the Water Coil.
2. The Water Coil is submerged in the Hot Water Tank and draws heat from the surrounding hot water. Water flowing into the Water Coil is then heated and flows out through the Formed Outlet Tube to the Faucet. (The water flowing through the Water Coil, which feeds the Faucet is not con­trolled by the Solenoid Valve. This portion of the system is always under pressure and is controlled by the Faucet. Opening the Faucet allows the water to flow through the Water Coil system.)
3. The Needle Valve, in the system, controls the volume of flow from the Faucet and is adjusted to allow a gentle stream of water to be dispensed through the Faucet, without splashing into the cup. (The Faucet is intended as a cup to cup hot water supply.)
NOTE: Drawing hot water from the Faucet, during a Brewing Cycle does not affect the volume of the finished brew.
