UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS

Carefully unpack the Mini Cap-3 Machine and inspect immediately for shipping damage. Your MC-3
Machine was shipped in a carton designed to give it maximum protection in normal handling. It was
thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory. In case of damage, contact Newco.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Water Inlet Connection:

This equipment is to be installed to comply with the applicable Federal, State, or local plumbing codes
having jurisdiction. In addition:

1. Install the quick disconnect water connection with washer (located in bag kit) to the water inlet outlet
located in upper rear of machine.

2. Install the shutoff/strainer between the water line and the machine insuring the connections do not leak.
Provide enough extra coiled tubing (at least 2x the depth of the unit) so that the machine can be moved
for cleaning underneath.

Level the machine (using the 4 Adjustable Leveling Legs, factory installed).

START-UP PROCEDURE

1. Connect the ¼" dia. copper waterline to the ¼" flare water inlet fitting of the valve, turn water on,
check for leaks.

2. Plug the power cord into a proper receptacle.

3. Activate the Power switch (Toggle Up) located on the left rear of the machine. The tank will start filling.

4. Allow approximately 3-5 minutes for the tank to fill.
If the tank does not fill up within the first 10 minutes an error message will display a blinking LED code.
See Definition of Codes and Troubleshooting Guide.

5. Allow up to 30 minutes for the water to reach a temperature of 180°F.
The heat up time will depend on the water inlet temperature, the input voltage.
While the tank is heating up, remove the 2 lb. product cassettes, load them with product and reposition
them back in the machine (see loading diagram page 7 ).

6. Adjust cup volume settings and water flow rate. (See Operating Instructions page 8)

SANITIZING INSTRUCTIONS:

Sanitizing: All food dispensing units should be sanitized weekly. All parts to be sanitized must be
cleaned first.

To prepare a sanitizing solution: ADD 2 TSP. OF LIQUID CLOROX BLEACH (5.25%
CONCENTRATION) TO 1 GALLON OF WATER AT
ROOM TEMPERATURE (70°- 90°F).
Note: Always start with an unopened bottle of Clorox Bleach since the solution from an opened
bottle has a short life span.

• Soak all parts for a minimum of 3 min. in the sanitizing solution.

• Let all sanitized parts drain and dry naturally. DO NOT WIPE THEM DRY.

• Before using the sanitized unit (or parts) with foodstuffs, rinse all parts thoroughly with water.
Water pipe connecting and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply shall be sized, installed,
and maintained in accordance with
Federal, Sate, and Local codes (sec tion 7).

2. Wash and let dry the tray and grill (use a mild dishwasher detergent).

3. Wash and let dry the dispense area.

4. Turn the power switch to ON.

Flushing the Whipper Chambers (See Illustration of Membrane Switch Page 8 )

1. Push and hold any 2 dispense buttons for 3 seconds.
Whipper will run briefly to show this has been done.

2. Push and hold any dispense button to flush.
Flush will stay active as long as button is held.

3. Flush mo de will end after 3 seconds of inactivity.
Whipper will run briefly to show the mode has ended.

Removing and Cleaning the Whipper Chambers (See Illustration Below and on Page 12)

1. Remove the steam cap by turning while on whipper bowl, then remove cap by pulling it

upward.

2. Remove the whipper bowl by lifting upward to free from mixing chamber, then away from

machine to disengage bowl stem from water outlet.

3. Turn the mixing chamber clockwise to disengage from whipper base and remove.

It is important that these two keyways are lined up when re-assembling the components.
