  • Page 8: Note On This Manual

    WELCOME Note on this manual Work on the Spirit manual started in March 2012 and is a continuing process. Photographs in the manual are taken in the shop from (pre-production) machines being built at the time. For that reason, body panels and/or parts from the machines on display may be missing and parts in the machine you bought may not look identical to the parts shown in the manual.
  • Page 9: Prior To Installation

    You may want to have the water, drain and power fed through one or more openings in the countertop (see Figure 4: Footprints of the Duette and Triplette). As the Spirit has full free space underneath, the opening(s) in the countertop can be positioned anywhere. For a visually pleasing result we...

  • Page 15: Installation

    Installation Precaution Installation of and maintenance on the Spirit should only be undertaken by a qualified technician. Parts of the machine can reach a temperature of close to 130 °C (266 °F). The steam/hot water boiler contains water and pressurised steam at 125 °C and 1.35 Bar overpressure (257 °F and 20 PSI), temperature and pressure in the coffee boiler system may reach up to 96 °C and 12 Bar overpressure...
  • Page 16: Connect Water Supply

    1. Use a 20 mm spanner to attach the elbow end of the two long high pressure hoses to the water supply of the steam boiler (rear fitting) and coffee water system (front fitting) on the Spirit respectively (3/8 connections; see Figure 7b). There is no need for any type of gasket. The rounded end of the hose fits snugly onto the fitting, providing a leak free connection when turned tightly.

  • Page 20: Connect Electrics

    Connect electrics Single- versus three-phase machines The Spirit is designed to operate on 220-240VAC with three-phase mains power (3x 230VAC) so as to divide power consumption over three different mains leads. The mains cable has five wires (2.5 mm each): three phases, neutral and earth. For safe operation of the machine, a phase shift of 120° per phase (which is common in Europe) is essential, as this 120°...
  • Page 21: Mains Switch

    1. Make sure that the mains switch is in position “OFF” (see Figure 12a). 2. The thinner electrical cables attached to the Spirit are the pump cables. Attach each pump cable to its corresponding pump motor by connecting it inside the box on top of the pump motor (see Figure 13).
  • Page 22  Danger! When your machine was ordered without a mains plug or when the mains plug has been removed to fit the cable through a small countertop opening, have a qualified electrician connect your Spirit to the mains. The yellow/green or green lead must be connected to earth to properly ground the machine. This is essential to work safely with the machine.
