    INSTALLATION Installation  Caution! Installation of and maintenance on the Speedster should be done by a qualified technician. Parts of the machine can reach a temperature of close to 140 °C (284 °F). The steam/hot water boiler contains water and pressurised steam of 135 °C at 1.45 bar overpressure (275 °F at 21 PSI), temperature and pressure in the coffee system reaches up to 96 °C at 12 bar overpressure (205 °F at 175 PSI).
  • Page 6 INSTALLATION Chlorine should not be present in your water since it has a highly corrosive effect on all metal parts (copper, brass and even stainless steel) inside your machine and makes your espresso smell and taste awful. Chlorine treated water should therefore not be used in your machine unless chlorine is removed from the water after the chlorine treatment (e.g.

    INSTALLATION 6. Hold the loose end of the high pressure hose in a bucket and open the tap slowly. Flush the water treatment system according to manufacturer's instruction. Then flush the pump for a minute (the pump-motor does not have to run). Check if the water does not show a strange colour or smell.
  • Page 9: Connect To Mains Power And Switch On

    INSTALLATION Connect to mains power and switch on Warning! The Speedster is made for either 110-120VAC or 220-240VAC power supply. Make sure that the power demands (see identity tag on front of machine) matches the local power supply before connecting the Speedster to the mains power. We cannot be held responsible for damages resulting from connecting the machine to incompatible mains power.
  • Page 10: Filter Holder

    INSTALLATION While brewing espresso, with the group valve “open” and the pump activated, the pressure is supposed to increase up to 9 bar when back pressure is present (coffee puck). The pressure generated by the pump is partly dependent on the line pressure of the building. The pump pressure can be adjusted by turning the set screw on the right hand side of the brass pump housing (see Figure I 4).
