Plumber's Installation Instructions - Newco NK Series Installation, Operation And Service Manual

PLUMBER'S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION:
1) Attach flow/strainer assembly to back of brewer. Strainer inlet will point down.
2) Flush water line before installing brewer. Brewer should be connected to COLD WATER LINE for best operation.
3) Water pressure should be at least 20 lbs. For less than a 25 ft run, use 1/4" copper tubing and connect to 1/2" or larger
water line. For longer runs, use 3/8" copper tubing & connect to 1/2" or larger water line and provide an adapter fitting
for connection to the brewer.
4) If installed with saddle valve, the valve should have a minimum of 1/8" port hole for up to 25 ft run, and 5/16" port hole
for over 25 ft runs.
5) Connect incoming water line to the strainer on the back of the brewer. Manufacturer recommends connecting to copper
tubing.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
- Read and follow installation instructions before plugging or wiring in machine to electrical circuit. Warranty will
be void if machine is connected to any voltage other than that specified on the name plate.
FILL BREWER TANK WITH WATER BEFORE CONNECTING TO POWER SUPPLY !
ALL MODELS EXCEPT TEA BREWERS
1) Place the decanter under brew basket, raise top evaporation cover and pour three decanters of water through the top pour-
in screen. Water should come through the brew basket as the third decanter of water drains out of the pour in basin. If
brewer does not have a pour in opening remove top cover and pour water directly into receiving pan.
2) Adjust timer to deliver desired amount of water (Timer is located behind front access panel). To brew into a regular 60
oz. decanter little adjustment should be needed. For brewing with the airpot brewer into a 72 oz. airpot the time should be
increased. Turn timer dial clockwise to increase volume of water, and counter clockwise to decrease volume.
3) Brewer is shipped with thermostat turned on, (full clockwise position). Plug or wire in machine to appropriate voltage
circuit as noted on the brewers serial tag. Serial tag is located on rear of brewer.
4) Allow 10 to 15 minutes for water in tank to heat to brewing temperature. (Additional water may drip from brew basket on
initial expansion of water in the tank). This will not occur thereafter.
5) After water has reached brewing temperature (thermostat will click off, heating noise will stop and green ready light will
be on.) turn lower warmer switch (warmer models), or lighted rocker switch (airpot brewers) to the on position. Depress
brew start switch and run a cycle of water to remove expanded water from tank. (Brew cycle may be canceled by turning
the rocker switch back to the OFF position.)
6) Run one cycle to check for the proper temperature setting with an accurate thermometer. Take the temperature of this
water at a point below the brew basket opening, at the start of the brew cycle and when the decanter is half full.
Recommended temperature of the water is approximately 195 F.
7) In higher altitude locations (5000 feet above sea level) the thermostat may have to be adjusted lower to prevent boiling.
8) CAUTION: On faucet models the water faucet will dispense hot water when the handle is depressed. The faucet system is
independent of the brewing system and can be operated during brew cycle. Once brewer is pressurized operate faucet until
water flows smoothly.
TEA BREWERS
1) Remove front access panel from brewer.
2) Place tea urn under brewer and fill tank as described in step 1 above.
3) Plug in brewer. Close needle valve by turning clockwise.
Power to brewer must be OFF before proceeding with plumbing installation.
