8. regulation

8.1. Adjusting the lower portafilter support

In order to ensure the proper distribution of ground coffee in the portafilter, while supporting the portafilter in a hands-free position during dosing, it is possible to adjust the height of the lower portafilter support ( ).

1.

Loosen the two adjustment screws ( ) found on each side of the upper portafilter fork ( ), by using the Allen Key included with your grinder.

2.

Adjust the support to the desired height using the portafilter as the point of reference.

3.

Tighten the screw ( ) found on each side of the upper portafilter fork ( ), with the Allen Key provided ( Fig. 1).

NOTE: If the adjustment is extreme (too high or too low), difficulties in operating the dosis button might occur.

10

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | Ref. quality process 002/03 | v. 14/04/2014 | K06315

8.2. Adjust the lower portafilter support in models with

Dynamometric press system DYN

1.

Remove screw caps (

Fig. 2) using a flat headed screw driver.

2.

Adjust the mobile fork as described in section 8.1.

3.

Replace and tighten the screw caps ( Fig. 2).

8.3. Grind point adjustment

Place portafilter in portafilter fork ( ) and push the refill button ( ) until ground coffee begins to dispense from exit chute.

To adjust the grind point, simply turn the grind adjustment knob. A clockwise adjustment will render a finer grind and a counter clockwise adjustment will render a more coarse grind.

CAuTION: If the adjustment is extreme (too high or too low), difficulties in operating the dosis button might occur.

NOTE: If the output is very slow, it could mean that the coffee is being ground too fine. If the output is very fast, it could mean that the coffee is being ground too coarse. A perfect espresso grind is found when the grind point gives an infusion of

25 ml of coffee in 25 seconds using 7 grams of ground coffee.

When turning the grind adjustment knob it should be noted that a grind point reference scale of 1 to 800 will appear on the main display ( ). This scale should be used as a reference in setting the desired grind point.

8.4. Coffee grinder preparation

The grinder should rest on a flat, hard surface in close proximity to the coffee machine. To guarantee proper operation, the minimum work space should measure at least 310 mm wide by 400 mm deep by 800 mm high.

Unpack the grinder carefully and place it in the assigned work space. Before placing the bean hopper on the grinder, loosen the security screw found on the upper collar of the grinder ( ). Place the bean hopper ( ) on the upper part of the grinder so that the bean trap lever ( ) is positioned on the right side of the grinder in the

CLOSED

position ( Fig. 1). Once the bean hopper is placed on the grinder, rotate it clockwise until it is firmly in place and can rotate no further. If desired, replace the hopper security screw ( ) to ensure the hopper cannot be removed manually.

Place beans in the hopper and replace hopper lid ( ). Finally, the bean trap lever ( ) must be in an open position, allowing the beans to fall into the grinding chamber.

Before plugging in the grinder, confirm that the electrical configuration found on the description plaque on the grinder matches the power on site. Once confirmed, plug in the grinder and press the 3 position switch ( ) to position

I (AUTOMATIC MODE).

10. configuration

There are two distinct configuration differences which are as follows:

• Configuration of time for a single or double dose. Procedure to follow by the operator that can be realized at any time without password protection.

• Configuration of the grinder’s main menu. Procedure to follow when using the advanced features found in the main menu that can be password protected.

10.1. Configuration of the grinding time

The grind times for a single or double dose can be configured for the AUTOMATIC and

PrESELECT functions. Both AUTOMATIC and PrESELECT share the same time setting so modifying either will result in the same time for both functions.

To modify the time of a single dose, press the configuration button ( ) corresponding to a single dose ( ). On the main display ( ) the icon for a single dose will appear for 5 seconds, along with the programmed time for a single dose.

If during the 5 seconds the Central ( ) configuration button ( ) is pressed, the programmed time on the display will begin to flash, allowing the user to modify the time using the two outer configuration buttons ( ) corresponding to increase time or decrease time ( or ). This newly programmed time can be saved by by pressing the configuration button ( ) ( ).

To modify the time of a double dose, the same instructions as described for a single dose should be followed, however the configuration button ( ) corresponding to double dose should be pressed ( ).

10.2. Configuration of the grinder’s main menu

(

To access the grinder’s main menú, hold down the central configuration button ( )

) for 3 seconds.

Use the side configuration buttons ( y ) to toggle through menu options, and use the Central configuration button ( ) to confirm the selected option.

(

To exit the configuration menu, simply hold down the central configuration button

) for 3 seconds until exit is complete. Also, if left alone for 5 seconds, the menu will automatically store the changes made and exit the configuration menu.

11. cleaning

11.1. General cleaning

To ensure that the grinder functions properly, and produces the highest quality grind possible, the parts that come into contact with coffee should cleaned periodically.

General Cleaning guidelines as follows:

• Always turn the main power switch to the off position ( ).

• Unplug the machine from the power source.

• Do not submerge the grinder in water or use power washing devises.

11.2. bean hopper cleaning

In order to properly clean the bean hopper ( ), first empty out all remaining beans and fragments.

To remove the hopper, first close the bean trap ( ), and then loosen the hopper lock screw ( ) and lift the hopper straight up.

Clean the hopper ( ) with a moist soft cloth or with a small amount of water and soap to eliminate any oily residue from the beans.

Replace the bean hopper ( ) following the same steps as the removal process, but in reverse.

11.4. Cleaning the grind chamber

It is recommended that the grind chamber be cleaned monthly with a cleaner as recommended by Compak. This process will eliminate smelly residues from the coffee remains, which can negatively affect the quality of the brewed coffee.

The steps to follow are:

In order to properly clean the bean hopper ( ), first empty out all remaining beans and fragments.

• Close the bean trap on the hopper ( ) and grind out the remaining coffee in the grind chamber.

• Remove any remaining coffee beans from the bean hopper ( ).

• Pour the recommended grinder cleaning product into the bean hopper ( ) and open the bean trap ( ), allowing the cleaning product to pass into the grind chamber.

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | Ref. quality process 002/03 | v. 14/04/2014 | K06315

• Grind the cleaning product at a medium course grind setting until the recommended amount is passed through the system and nothing remains in the grind chamber.

• Clean the hopper ( ) and refill with coffee beans.

• Discard the first 2-3 doses of coffee to assure that the residual cleaning product is removed from the grind chamber and set the grind regulator to the desired setting ( ).

Following these steps will ensure that the grinder is clean and ready for use.

We do not recommend the taking apart of the grind assembly unless changing burrs, or removing a blockage/obstruction in the grind chamber. Removal of the grind assembly should be performed by a qualified service technician.

11.4. Cleaning the outside of the grinder

To clean the exterior of the grinder, first wipe with a dry soft cloth, and then gently wipe with a damp soapy cloth.

12. maintenance

12.1. General warning

Before performing any type of maintenance you should:

• Always turn OFF the main power switch to the off position ( ).

• If the grinder is jammed, unplug it from the power source and contact an authorized service technician.

Not following these warnings can compromise the safety of the grinder as well as the user.

12.2. General maintenance of the grind chamber

To guarantee the efficiency and correct operation of the grinder, it is essential to follow manufacturer instructions and ensure that all maintenance work is carried out by qualified staff.

Dull burrs will result in; a lower quality grind, greater heat generation in the coffee and grinder, increased electrical consumption, and finally it puts additional stress on the grinder motor.

NOTE: Based on extensive experience and a medium-hard coffee blend, we recommend replacing the burrs following the quantities in next table:
