          Note: Always refurbish the valves 1 by 1: do not dismantle all at the same time.

          Doing it like this = less mistakes!

        • Refit the inner cover

        • Refit the canisters

      • Cleaning the Ditting coffee grinder (Manually and with GRINDZ)

        • This instruction helps you when the grinder:

          1.  is in need of preventive maintenance 
          2. or in case it doesn't produce any grounded coffee anymore.

          In this second event, mostly the free outlet of the coffee was obstructed or the rubber flapper inside outlet 13911 isn't opening anymore

        • Tip: instead of manual cleaning described in the next slides it's also possible to use GRINDZ "Cleaning Beans" (art. nr. 1000151)

          1. Close the beanhopper slide (see also next slide)
          2. Remove the brewer/let the waste-bin stay in
          3. Goto: service menu 2.7/hardware test/outputs
          4. Goto: IM1/ Grinder motor and activate grinder motor in order to clear out the coffee grinder into the waste-bin
          5. Take out the beanhopper and add a handfull of the Grindz cleaning Beans to the top of the grinder and run them trough, using step 3 again
          6. After this: put the beanhopper back, open the slide, add fresh coffeebeans and take some test drinks to prevent bad taste afterwards.
          1. Turn off the machine by disconnecting the main cable from the electric network
          2. Open the door and close the Bean hopper slide moving to the right (downwards)
        • Take out the complete Bean hopper moving it upwards

          Take away the plastic grinder outlet, sliding the upper part away from the grinder outlet first.

          Tip: the outlet 13911 is a delicate part. 

          We advise you to renew is yearly, but you can also clean it during the yearly maintenance.

        • Clean or renew the plastic grinder outlet 13911, giving extra attention to the condition of the rubber flapper inside.

          Tip: Make sure the plastic is not cracked or damaged!

        • Unscrew both screws from the aluminium grinder head (left+right)

        • Take out the left screw

        • Take away the upper aluminium (fixed disc) head of the grinder

        • Clean the upper ceramic disc by using the standard brush and a vacuum cleaner

          Tip: The ceramic discs can last for 300.000 shots!

          These discs only need to be replaced in case of very high dispencing counters or when they are damaged by a rock in the beans ect. 

        • Clean the rotating disc as well , using a vacuüm cleaner and the standard brush

        • Before re-fitting the upper aluminium disc head: make sure the plastic grinder bottem is facing towards the frontside of the machine!

        • Fit the Aluminium head back in it's place, paying extra attantion to the correct position of the plastic outlet (yellow circle) and put both screws back into place (red circles)

          3. Inspect the bearing and if it's not looking like the picture: proceed with next slide and following 
        • When your bearing is looking like this: 

          • Replacement is neccacary because it will be making noise. 
          • Also the proper wiping of the coffee residu wil not have been possible anymore
          • Goto the next slide
        • Remove the circlip of the left wiperarm axle

        • Fit the axle+new bearing to the brewerarm again and secure it with the circlip

        • Slide the refurbished arm back into the brewer body

        • While sliding the arm back in: 

          make sure this end of the spring is placed already on the inside of the arm (see slide 7) 

          This way you only have to concentrate on getting the spring around the bush on the outside of the arm (see next slide/upwards arrow)

        • Manipulate the spring around the bush on the outside of the wiperarm while sliding the arm downwards

          1. Fit the axle trough the brewerbody + wiperarm

        • Extra:

          Grease the doorlock using High-Tef(lon) oil

          1. Fit the side-panel to the chassis
          2. Switch on the machine
          3. Take a test-drink "Hot water"
      • Repair break-pin brewermotor/E5

        • The break-pin of the driver wheel brewer will break whenever the permanentfilter in the brewer is not cleaned every week with coffee fur remover.

          The break-pin (art. nr. 03341) prevents the gearbox of the brewermotor getting damaged by excessive force when the permanentfilter or the brewer itself are obstructed in any way.

          Error 5 is displayed whenever the brewer-motor switch (during start-up) is no longer detected

        • First, we make sure that the pin actual is broken and causing the E5 or E4 error:

          1. Go to 2.7 Hardwaretest/outputs/Brewer Motor and run the motor by "Activate"(Touch version) or pushing the "test button" (button below "V"/push-button versions)
          2. When you hear the brewermotor running, Ma's are displayed, but the brewer itself isn't moving at all: 90% chance the breakpin is broken. In the other 10% the gears in the gearbox of the brewermotor are broken and you need to renew the motor itself (see also step1-Tip)

          1.  Switch off the machine/take out the main-power-cable 
          2. Open the door
          3. Disconnect the inlet hose + outlet hose of the brewer
          4. Pull the lower side of the brewer firmly towards you (see picture)
          5. Take out the brewer completely, moving it upwards
        • Remove the 1 screw that hold the motor assembly

          Note: In case the brewer transport safety bracket is still present it can be removed

          1. Take out both screws of the back-side panel
          2. Remove the back-side panel
        • Remove both connectors of the brewer switch (black-Grey) and the power (Red-Black)

        • Move the complete motor-assembly upwards

        • Take out the complete assembly (upper side first)

          1. Remove all 6 scews that hold the brewermotor to the bracket
          2. Take the bracket+switch from the motor
        • For the next step you need a driver pin (max 2 mm ) and a hammer

          1. Remove the plastic wheel from the motor-axle
          2. Use a driver pin+hammer 2 mm (max) to drive out the 3 parts of the broken break-pin (2 x plastic wheel/1 x motor-axle)
        • Prepare a new wheel (art. nr. 03340) and a new break-pin (art.nr. 03341) 

          Note: Make sure the end of the break-pin with the thinner end (old version/conical pin) or the pointed side (new model-May 2022) goes in first

          Update: Since June 2024 the wheel + pin are combined in a set (art.no.1012799)

          Set 1012799 contains a conical break-pin again!!

          1. Fit the new wheel on the motor-axle with the open side facing outwards
          2. Align the wheel-pin-hole in the axle with eachother (see also tip)
          3. Hammer the pin through the axle into the wheel until the end
          1. Fit the bracket unto the refurbished motor
          2. Fit all 6 screws again and fasten them firmly

          Note: make sure the lever of the microswitch is not obstructed and fitted nicely on the outside of the new wheel.

        • Refit the motor assembly again, upper side in first and slide it downwards again

        • Refit the connectors of the microswitch (grey-black) and the motor (red-black)

        • Fit and tighten the screw again

          1. Check the brewer on technical condition 
          2. Make sure the permanentfilter is clean and the top-folie screen is not damaged
          3. Clean or renew the permanentfilter when neccacary
          4. Clean the complete brewer under the (warm) water tap 
          1. Refit the brewer to the upper bracket (see tip)
          2. Switch on the machine and close the door or place the service-pin: the machine will automatically start the brewermotor and the brewer will fit in the wheel as soon as the motor-wheel finds the back-side drive-pin of the brewerunit
        • Refit the inlet tube into the hole in the cabinet

        • Refit the outlet hose of the brewer unto the plastic support again

          • Machine is ready for use again
          • Take a test drink
    • Errors

      • System Synchronizing

        • When the display permanently shows "System Synchronizing" like shown in the picture, you are advised to replace the HMDI cable .

          1. Check HMDI cable connectors (when no cable on stock)
          2. Replace HMDI cable (see TIP)
          3. Update SW in case a new HMDI cable does not help
          4. Replace the interface board in case all above does not help
