INSTALLATION

NOTE: These instructions are provided to assist the qualified installer. Contact your distributor

or call JoeTap/Micro Matic for information regarding start-up services.

INSTALLATION LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

The JT-CTMG may be island-mounted or installed on a front or rear counter. Locate the
unit so the following requirements are satisfied. This system is for indoor use only and must
NOT be placed in an area where a water jet or similar high-pressure sprayer could be used.

LOCATION & SURFACE

• Footprint: 21.56" (548 MM) W x 34.05"(865 MM) H x 17.24"(438 MM) D plus an additional
6" clearance to the left, right and rear of the machine.

• Weight: surface must be able to support weight of the dispenser, water/ice bath and BIB
product stored inside (165 LBS fully loaded).

• Level surface: The JT-CTMG must be level horizontally from right to left and front to rear.

• If surface penetration is necessary, the hole should be at least 2" in diameter and
be closed/sealed once the power cord, drain line and water supply line are in place
and connected.

• Avoid placing the dispenser near heat sources such as radiators, ovens, refrigeration
equipment, and direct sunlight.

NOTICE

Failure to follow these
guidelines may affect
warranty coverage.

CAUTION

Cutting the countertop
may decrease its strength.
Counter should be braced
to support the dispenser
countertop weight plus
product storage capacity
and weight of ice/water
bath.

WATER SUPPLY

• Flow rate must be at least .7 GPM

• Pressure cannot exceed 50 PSI

• Temperature: 45˚ F – 90˚ F

• Cannot contain sediment equal to or larger than 5 microns.

• Must consist of NSF-61 compliant components.

• Must be plumbed with in-line water shutoff valve and backflow prevention device.

• A screen of at least 100 mesh (100 strands per 1" [25 MM]) must be installed immediately
upstream of the backflow prevention device.

• Water hardness cannot exceed 75 PPM

• Cannot be plumbed to demineralized water: a water supply with little or no mineral
content will yield flat beverages.

All wiring and plumbing must
conform to national and
local codes.
