INTRODUCTION

Making coffee is an art. Precise rules need to be followed in order to succeed. The formula for a perfect cup of expresso coffee involves various steps and the coffee machine plays a very important role. For a successful result and unquestionable quality, it is necessary to correctly combine three factors:

• A high-quality blend.
- The appropriate use of available appliances.
- The skill and professionalism of the person who makes it. Contrary to belief, to enjoy a good cup of coffee, it is not enough to choose the right blend.

The operator's experience and skills in following the right procedures for making a coffee and the use of suitable appliances strongly influence the creation of a small masterpiece. Therefore, professionals place crucial importance on the espresso machine and grinder-doser. Knowing how to use these appliances well, maintaining them in perfect working order and using them at their best, is a skill belonging to professional coffee makers. The quality of a good espresso coffee comes from a series of operations, including grinding which plays an important role. Therefore, for the operator, the grinder-doser is one of the fundamental appliances, whose structure must meet certain characteristics of sturdiness, resistance and functionality.

DIMENSIONS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

PACKAGING

On opening the packaging, check carefully to make sure the grinder-doser is intact and that there are no signs of damage. If in any doubt, do not use the appliance and contact personnel with the appropriate professional skills. Packaging materials must be kept out of the reach of children, as they are a potential source of danger. Keep the packaging until the warranty has expired.

DISPOSAL

Do not, dispose of the packaging materials in any way other than according to the laws in force. If you decide not to use the grinder-doser anymore, remember to unplug it so it cannot be used, and then cut the cable at the point where it comes out of the grinder-doser. Contact specialized firms for information on the disposal of the grinder-doser components.

USE

This grinder-doser has been designed solely for grinding coffee beans. Any other use must be understood as improper, and consequently hazardous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage as a result of improper or incorrect use. Do not use the grinder-doser for grinding other types of food, or anything else. The grinder-dosers and coffee grinders manufactured by our company are intended for skilled personnel for professional use only, not for household use.

WARNINGS FOR INSTALLATION AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The grinder-doser must be installed by skilled technical personnel in compliance with the safety regulations in force. Incorrect installation may result in injury to people, animals or things, for which the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.

• The grinder-doser must be placed on a stable, flat surface.
• Before plugging in the grinder-doser, make sure the voltage and frequency values of the supply mains correspond to the ratings indicated on the label featuring the grinder-doser technical data.
• The wall socket must be fitted with an efficient earth contact. Consequently, it is essential to make sure the earth system is efficient and in conformity with current safety regulations. If in any doubt, have the system thoroughly checked by personnel with the appropriate professional skills.
• It is compulsory to earth the grinder-doser. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible in the event of non-observance of this regulation.
• It is essential to make sure the ratings of the system are suitable for the power absorbed by the grinder-doser (as indicated on the label featuring the technical data) and that the wall socket is protected against over currents.
• Do not use extension cables, plug adapters for multiple sockets or makeshift connections.
• The motor must rotate clockwise. If the rotation of three-phase motors is to be inverted,

by inverting the two power supply wires inside the plug, this must be carried out by skilled personnel.

OPERATING THE GRINDER-DOSER Preliminaries

Make sure the hopper is positioned correctly on the coffee grinder-doser and is fastened to the upper grinding blade holder by means of the relevant screw. Close the locking slide and fill the hopper with coffee beans. Open the locking slide so that the beans are allowed to drop into the grinding system.

Switching on and off

On: set the switch to 1.

Off: set the switch to 0.

CHANGING THE GRINDING SETTING

To change the grinding setting and thus vary the granulometry, it is necessary to alter the grinding adjustment disk positioned under the hopper, by turning it to the required setting. We recommend grinding small quantities of coffee so you can visually examine optimal grain size and, if necessary, alter the grinding adjustment disk.

Grinding settings

Turkish	250-300 μm
Espresso	250-500 μm
Filter	400-800 μm
French Press	600-1000 μm

OPERATION

To dispense coffee, select one of the 3 pre-settings using the corresponding button. If you want to stop the grinding earlier, press the button again.

Pull the lever repeatedly to allow any ground coffee dregs to drop down.

RECORDING OR CHANGING THE PRE-SETTINGS

3 different grinding times can be set: press the pre-selected button (1-2-3) until the number on the display turns yellow. Press button 1 to increase the time, button 3 to reduce it, and press button 2 to confirm.

T1: 5.3
T2: 15.8
T3: 23.1

DISPLAY

The grinder-doser motor is protected against overheating resulting from overcurrents by a thermal overload protection which, when tripped, cuts off the power supply to the motor. If the thermal protection device should automatically turn on in the event of anomalous operation (such as the grinding blades jamming), turn off grinder-doser using the On-Off switch, unplug it from the mains, and contact skilled technical personnel. Never perform any work on the grinder-doser while it is attached to the mains, in order to prevent the motor from turning on suddenly. If the grinder-doser overheats as a result of the motor stopping, allow the grinder-doser to cool down before performing any repair work.

Coffee outlet guard

The coffee outlet guard must always be fixed to the doser unit using the relevant screws, which must never be removed by the user. The removal of the coffee outlet guard can be done by skilled technical personnel only after disconnecting the grinder-doser from the power supply by unplugging. Before reconnecting the grinder-doser to the power supply, replace the safety device.

NOISE LEVEL

EEC Countries - The maximum noise emission of our coffee grinders and grinders/dosers measured in UNI EN ISO 3741 reverberating chamber in compliance with the EN 60704-1 regulations, is compliant with the EN 60704-1 : 1998 and EN 607043 : 1996 regulations. The equivalent level of noise exposure of a worker, exclusively related to limit of 240 min. per eight hours of use of the appliance, is equal to 78 dB(A), in compliance with ED 86/188/EEC and ED 200311 0/EEC. Therefore, when operating

the appliance, no provisions need to be taken in order to prevent such risks arising from noise exposure in the workplace (articles 3-8 of ED 2003/10/EEC).

MAINTENANCE

It is essential to periodically check the state of the supply cable and plug. In the event the supply cable or plug are damaged, call in skilled technical personnel to replace them, in order to prevent any risk. In CE-certified appliances a special tool is required to open the base plate to access the cable. We recommend using original spare parts only. In order to assure the lasting efficiency of the appliance, skilled technical personnel must be called in to perform periodical maintenance, including detailed checks of the state of those components subject to wear. The state of the grinding blades must be checked periodically. Keeping the grinding blades in an excellent state assures high-quality grinding, resulting in greater productivity and limited overheating.

CLEANING THE APPLIANCE

Disconnect the power supply from the grinder-doser by unplugging it before cleaning. The appliance must not be cleaned using water jets. Do not install the grinder-doser in rooms where water jets are used for cleaning. The grinder-doser must be cleaned periodically by skilled technical personnel only. Use perfectly clean, disinfected cloths or brushes for cleaning. Do not use abrasive products as these are liable to take the sheen off shiny parts.

Hopper

Wash the hopper once it has been removed from the appliance (unscrewing the relevant fastening screw), using neutral soap and water, rinse abundantly with lukewarm water and dry thoroughly. It is advisable to clean the hopper periodically. Once the hopper has been cleaned, it must be attached to the upper grinding blade holder using the relevant screw.

Grinding system

Remove the safety screw which prevents the adjustment disk from being removed. Unscrew the adjustment disk by turning it clockwise. Having removed the upper grinding blade holder, clean the grinding blades, the threads and the entire grinding system thoroughly using a clean brush and cloth. Having refitted the upper grinding blade holder in the relevant slot, screw the adjustment disk back on, and after refitting and securing the hopper adjust the grinding as required.
