Installation
(For Qualified Service Technicians Only)
Keys Points
Electrical:
•The electronic controls require at least 105 volts. Less than 105 volts will cause erratic behavior from the
brewer.
•The electrical drawing for the brewer is located on the inside of the upper cover.
General:
•Do not adjust the thermostat setting unless absolutely necessary. It is set at the factory for optimum
performance.
Installation Instructions
1. Review the Dimensional Drawings and the Operating Procedures for the unit you are installing. Verify that
the brewer will fit in the space intended for it. Verify that the counter or table will support 55 lbs., the weight
of the brewer and dispensers when filled.
2. The thermostat is pre-set at the factory. There is no need to turn off the heater during the installation
process. The heater is disabled by the liquid level control board until water is sensed. The heating
process will start automatically when the tank has filled with water.
3. When the brewer is in position for use, level the brewer front to back as well as side to side by adjusting the
feet.
4. Plug the power cord into a proper receptacle
5. Turn the power switch to the “on” position.
• The “ready” light will go on briefly, then go off.
• The heaters will be disabled by the L.L.C. board until water is sensed by the water level probe.
6. Fill the water tank as follows:
• Remove the pour-over tank cover.
• Place a container under the brew basket.
• Slowly pour approximately 1½ gallons of water into the top of the brewer. This will almost completely
fill the brewer’s main tank.
• Pour additional water into the top until water begins flowing out of the brew basket into the container.
• The brewer’s tank is now completely full and the water will begin heating.
• Due to the expansion of the water as the temperature rises, water will drip from the brew basket during
the heating process. Therefore, the brew basket and container should be kept in place until the water
has reached operating temperature.
The brewer will be ready for operation as soon as the ready light comes on to indicate that the water tank is
up to brewing temperature. The time required to reach brewing temperature will vary according to the electrical
configuration and the temperature of the cold water.
Depending on the cost of electricity in your area, very little savings may be had by turning the brewer off
between shifts. The water tank is well insulated and may actually use less electricity to keep the tank hot, than reheating the tank from a cold condition. Leaving the brewer in the on position will also avoid delays at the beginning
of shifts for the brewer to reach operating temperature.
7. Review the entire operating procedures with whomever will be using the brewer. Pay particular attention to
the following areas.
• Don't remove the brew basket until it has stopped dripping.
• Make sure the dispenser is empty before brewing into it.
• Show how to close and/or secure the dispensers for transporting.
