SERVICE MANUAL – MODEL TLXG0201S000

USING THE THERMOPRO SERVER

WARNING – THERMOPRO SERVERS MAY BE HEAVY WHEN FILLED. CARE MUST BE TAKEN
WHEN TRANSPORTING TO AVOID DROPPING OR SPILLING.

Use only coffee or water in the insulated dispenser. Do not use the airpot to dispense any other beverage.
Preheating the airpot is recommended.

1. Place a clean and empty server centered under one of the brewcones of the ThermoPro brewer.

2. Make sure the READY TO BREW indicator is lit.

3. Fill brewcone with the correct measure of ground coffee.

4. Press the desired brew button on the side of the brewer with the empty airpot. The ThermoPro airpot
employs the Curtis Brew-Thru lid and it is not necessary to remove the top lid before brewing.

5. Allow the brewcone to completely drip before removing airpot for remote service.

SERVICING AIRPOT/THERMOPRO SERVER

Completely clear the unit of any coffee by opening the faucet to drain over a sink. Unscrew and remove the lid

and tube assembly.

1. REPLACING THE GAUGE GLASS

The gauge glass can be removed for maintenance or to replace if broken.

1. Carefully take hold of the gauge glass guard and lift away the guard from the

front of the unit.

2. The sight glass guard contains two extra glass tubes for replacing a broken

gauge glass. These are held in slots designed into the guard that run the
length of the guard (see fig. 1).

3. Once the gauge glass guard is removed, you will observe that the gauge

glass is held by the black plastic elbow at the top. Pull back on the gauge
glass tube while slightly lifting at the elbow (flexible silicone fitting at the elbow
will allow you to tilt the gauge glass tube). Lift the gauge glass out from the
top of the faucet.

4. The glass tube will come out with a small silicone seal attached, one on each

end. You can pull these off for cleaning (take care to replace the silicone seal
as it was removed, with the large opening sliding over the glass tube).

2. REMOVING THE BASE ASSEMBLY

Remove the base assembly for faucet repair or to move the body of the unit

for placement on a remote serving stand.

1. Remove the wing nut at the centerline of the ThermoPro.

2. Pull tab, left side (fig. 2.).

3. Hold the handle and Twist ¼ turn to lift off of base. Before lifting off the unit,

please notice the mark on the bottom right edge of the airpot marked, “ALIGN
TO INSTALL”. This will assist in the assembly of the base and body of the unit.

3. REMOVING THE FAUCET

To replace the faucet or the silicone elbow fitting for repair or cleaning:

1. Remove the base assembly as described above.

2. Remove the Liner Mounting Retainer at the bottom of the liner (held in place by
a black plastic nut). There is a key slot in the stainless body of the unit that aligns
with a pin on the liner retainer for assembly.

3. The silicone fitting is held by two wire clamps. Squeeze the wire ears of the clamps to loosen and slide
one from the faucet and the other off of the liner drain port.

4. Remove the faucet, unscrew the wing nut and pull out from the front of the unit.

5. To remove the faucet guard, unscrew the four phillips screws holding it to the body of the unit.

4. SERVICING THE FAUCET

The faucet will require periodic cleaning and maintenance.

1. To disassemble the faucet unscrew the bonnet from the body of the faucet.

2. Remove the top handle by pressing inward on the seat cup (fig. 3.) and unhooking
the handle from the center shaft.

3. The seat cup/center shaft and spring will now separate from the bonnet.

4. You may now clean or replace the parts of the faucet (fig. 4). Check the seat cup
for tearing of splitting. Make sure that the faucet spring is free of corrosion.
Replace these items if necessary (items 12 & 13, page 3).

ASSEMBLY

Assemble the unit by reversing the steps for disassembly. Do not overtighten the plastic
nuts holding the base and the liner retainer. Finger tighten only. Make sure clamps are on
properly and all silicone fittings are in good condition. Once assembled, check for leaks
around fittings or faucet.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: When washing, do not submerge the entire airpot.
When cleaning the stainless steel surface of the ThermoPro server, DO NOT use powders, liquids,
cleansers, or any substance containing chlorine.

CLEANING OF LINER

1. Rinse out the liner with hot water to remove coffee from the server.
2 Fill the liner with a mild detergent solution and let it stand for 10 to 15 minutes.
3 After about 15 minutes take a sponge and scrub out the stainless steel liner.
4 Completely drain out the soapy solution from the liner.
5 Fill the airpot with clean water to rinse out any detergent left inside the unit. Repeat this rinsing
several times until the water runs clear and free of all traces of detergent solution.

CLEANING OF PARTS

This insulated server is designed to be easily disassembled for maintenance (see page one for recommended
disassembly).
Use three sinks to clean and sterilize airpot parts. Fill one sink with tepid water containing detergent. In the
another sink mix a solution with chloride type of sterilization liquid diluted with water to a density of 200 ppm. Fill
the last sink with clean water for rinsing.

1. In the sink filled with the detergent solution, clean the removed parts. A small, soft bristled brush will
clean hard to reach areas.

2. Pay special attention to the small gauge glass liquid level hole on the body of the faucet. You can brush
this out with a small pipe cleaner.

3. Rinse the parts in clear water.

4. Place the parts into the sterilization sink and im­merse them for five minutes.

5. Rinse the sterilization solution from the parts.

6. Allow all cleaned parts to completely air dry.

7. Assemble the dried parts onto the airpot.
