Installation (For Qualified Service Technicians Only) Keys To A Successful Installation If not installed correctly by qualified personnel, the brewer may not operate properly and damage may result. Damages resulting from improper installation are not covered by the warranty. Here are the key points to consider before installation: Electrical: The power switch has a built-in circuit breaker.

Water Connection 1. Water inlet is a 3/8 inch male flare fitting. 2. The brewer can be connected to a cold or hot water line. Cold water is preferred for best coffee flavor, but hot water will allow for faster recovery times. 3.
This step is very important to the overall success of the brewing operation. READY FETCO avoids the damaging affects of heat on fresh brewed coffee by using highly insulated dispensers. The dispenser must be pre-heated with hot water from the brewer. This preheating process ensures that the coffee in the first brew starts out hot.
Service Warranty All FETCO brewers come with a limited warranty. All warranty service must be pre-authorized by calling the FETCO Service Department at (800) 338-2699. Principles of Operation Fill System The fill system consists of a liquid level control board, a water level probe at the top of the tank, a fill valve, and a fill tube.

Dispense System: The dispense system is completely mechanical. It is one of the areas that makes FETCO's brewer truly unique. (See the illustration in this section.) When you rotate the brew lever down to brew, the end of the dispense tube is submerged in the hot water tank. It is held in the brew position by the magnetic action of the dispense latch coil.

Adjustments Thermostat Adjustment: During normal operation, the digital readout displays the last two digits of the actual water temperature. When the adjustment tool is turned, the readout begins flashing to indicate the set point, not the actual temperature. After the tool is released, the readout stops flashing and displays the actual temperature again.
Page 11
Water Level Control Board: The board features a jumper to adjust its’ sensitivity for reverse osmosis or other types of ultra-pure water. The default jumper setting is LO (50K ohms) for normal water. If the brewer tank overfills because of ultra- pure water, the jumper should be set to HI (100K ohms).
EVERY BREW (overfills but does stop) SOME BREWS Thermal server not empty -Empty the server and try again -Call FETCO Service Dept. to discuss. Brew basket or filter overflows (800) 338-2699 Weak Coffee Spray head missing -Attach spray head assembly.

Brewing Problem Possible Cause Solution Spray head / brew basket drips either Cracked dispense tube/s -Replace both dispense tubes even if other side is not (This problem starts out minor but dripping side or both gets steadily worse) MAJOR Fill valve not sealing -See next section - “Brewer won’t stop brewing”, “Bad or (Will drip even with power off.) stuck fill valve”.
