K01068 | v. 02/09/2016 | Ref. quality process 002/03 | ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

8. REGULATION

8.1. Grinder set up

Place the hopper ( ) on the grind regulator ( ) and make sure the bean trap ( ) is in the closed position. Lock the hopper ( ) in place using a at head screw driver to gently tighten the hopper security screw making it match to the hole at the bean hopper collar ( ) (Fig. 1).

Remove the hopper lid ( ), ll the hopper with coffee ( ), and replace the lid on the hopper ( ) (Fig. 2).

Plug in the grinder, and place the main power switch ( ) ON-OFF to position ON and open the bean trap ( ) to allow coffee to pass into the grind chamber.

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | Ref. quality process 002/03 | v. 02/09/2016 | K01068

8.2. Grind adjustment system

8.2.1. Micrometrical system / Parallel micrometrical system

Rotate the grind regulator ( ) until reaching the grind level desired. Rotating the grind regulator counterclockwise will result in a courser grind; turning the regulator

clockwise will result in a ner grinder* (Fig. 3).

Once you reach the desired grinding point, you can x the grinding regulation ( )

using the regulation break ( ) (Fig. 4). Except K3 and K3 ELITE models.

*NOTE: Changing grind settings must be done when the grinder is on and burrs are in motion.

Not doing this suposes that the burrs will gunk up and cleaning will be required.

8.2.2. Stepped grind adjustment

In the stepped adjustment versions, the positions on the grind regulator are limited by “steps” that are dened by the hole and pin points (Fig. 5).

The instructions detailed in section 8.2.1. on adjusting the regulator should be followed, while at the same time, pulling the brake post ( ) (Fig. 5) up to release the locking action of the post.

K01068 | v. 02/09/2016 | Ref. quality process 002/03 | ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: If the output is very slow, it could mean that the coffee is being ground too

ne. If the output is very fast, it could mean that the coffee is being ground too

coarse. A perfect espresso grind is found when the grind point gives an infusion of 25 ml of coffee in 25 seconds using 7 grams of ground coffee.

8.3. Regulating the coffee serving

The dispensers are factory adjusted to serve an amount of approximately 7 gr of ground coffee, but this quantity can be regulated between 6 and 10 gr, as follows:

1. Remove the ground coffee dispenser lid ( ) and turn the dispensing regulation

screw ( ) clockwise to obtain a smaller amount of coffee, and counterclockwise to obtain a larger amount (Fig. 6).

2. Once the quantity of eachserving has been regulated, replace the ground coffee

dispenser lid ( ).

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | Ref. quality process 002/03 | v. 02/09/2016 | K01068

9. OPERATION

9.1. Main switch

The main swith ( ) has 2 positions of use, ON–OFF

ON: Working

OFF: Not working

9.2. Use

To turn the machine on and off use the ON–OFF switch ( ). The machine will start to grind the coffee. If the automatic stop option is incorporated, the grinder will stop grinding when the dispenser reaches the maximum level, and will restart after 8 portions of coffee have been served, grinding again to the maximum level.

If the machine does not incorporate the automatic stop option, we recommend that

you ll the doser 75% of its capacity in order to guarantee consistent dosing.

To serve the coffee servings, place the portalter on the fork ( ) as far in as possible

so that it is positioned under the ground coffee discharge tube. Pull the dispensing lever ( ) to obtain one coffee serving (one serving is equal to one cup of coffee), and release it so it returns to its normal position (Fig. 7).

To remove the hopper, rst close the bean trap ( ), and then loosen the hopper lock screw ( ) and lift the hopper straight up.

Clean the hopper ( ) with a moist soft cloth or with a small amount of water and soap to eliminate any oily residue from the beans.

Replace the bean hopper ( ) following the same steps as the removal process, but in reverse.

10.3. Ground coffee deposit cleaning

To clean the ground coffee holder, rst empty all the coffee inside it. Remove the

ground coffee dispenser lid ( ) and clean the inside, using a small brush.

10.4. Grind chamber cleaning

It is recommended that the grind chamber be cleaned monthly with a cleaner as recommended by Compak. This process will eliminate smelly residues from the coffee remains, which can negatively affect the quality of the brewed coffee.

K01068 | v. 02/09/2016 | Ref. quality process 002/03 | ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

The steps to follow are:

• In order to properly clean the bean hopper , rst empty out all remaining beans and fragments.

• Close the bean trap on the hopper ( ) and grind out the remaining coffee in the grind chamber.

• Remove any remaining coffee beans from the bean hopper ( ).

• Pour the recommended grinder cleaning product into the bean hopper ( ) and open the bean trap ( ), allowing the cleaning product to pass into the grind chamber.

• Grind the cleaning product at a medium course grind setting until the recommended amount is passed through the system and nothing remains in the grind chamber.

• Clean the hopper ( ) and rell with coffee beans.

• Discard the rst 2-3 doses of coffee to assure that the residual cleaning product is removed from the grind chamber and set the grind regulator to the desired setting ( ).

Following these steps will ensure that the grinder is clean and ready for use.

We do not recommend the taking apart of the grind assembly unless changing burrs, or removing a blockage/obstruction in the grind chamber. Removal of the grind

assembly should be performed by a qualied service technician.

10.5. Cleaning the outside of the grinder

To clean the exterior of the grinder, rst wipe with a dry soft cloth, and then gently

wipe with a damp soapy cloth.

Before performing any type of maintenance you should:

• Always turn OFF the main power switch to the OFF position ( ).

• If the grinder is jammed, unplug it from the power source and contact an

authorized service technician.

Not following these warnings can compromise the safety of the grinder as well as the user.

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | Ref. quality process 002/03 | v. 02/09/2016 | K01068

11.2. General maintenance of the grind chamber

To guarantee the efciency and correct operation of the grinder, it is essential to

follow manufacturer instructions and ensure that all maintenance work is carried

out by qualied staff.

Dull burrs will result in; a lower quality grind, greater heat generation in the coffee

and grinder, increased electrical consumption, and nally it puts additional stress on

the grinder motor.

NOTE: Based on extensive experience and a medium-hard coffee blend, we recommend replacing the burrs after grinding 350 Kg/770 lb of coffee.
