Unpacking Instructions

Carefully unpack the GB Machine and inspect it immediately for shipping damage. Your GB Machine was shipped in a carton designed to give it maximum protection in normal handling. It was thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory. In case of damage, contact the shipper not Grindmaster-Cecilware.
After the machine has been unpacked and placed on a counter, pull out the stainless steel drip tray. It should contain the following:

• 1/4” Flare Water Inlet Fitting.

Description and Location of Components

Note: Refer to following illustration for description and location of COMPONENTS and CONTROLS

1. HOPPERS: Pull door open to access the hoppers.

   • The hoppers hold 4 or 8 lbs. (1.8 or 3.6 kg) of Cappuccino product, depending on model number.
   • To remove the hoppers, swing the compartment door open and lift out the hoppers.
   • To reposition the hoppers in the compartment, slide the hopper base back between the rails until the 1/4″ pin at the bottom of the hopper base falls into the 1/4″ positioning hole of the compartment base cover.

2. RINSE SWITCH: With the door open, the rinse switch is located on the left side of the Mixing Chamber, in the hopper compartment.

   • It disengages the hopper motors and allows only water to be dispensed.
   • It is used for flushing out the Whipper Chambers and to adjust the water dispense valves for proper flow rates.

3. HEATER SWITCH: This switch is located in the rear, on the left side.

   • Its primary function is to shut off the heating element during the initial priming, start-up operation of the machine, or whenever the tank is being drained for service.
     Note: The Power Switch and Heater Switch must be ON in order for the elements to operate.

4. POWER SWITCH: With the door open, the rinse switch is located on the left side of the Mixing Chamber, in the hopper compartment. The power switch controls all power to the machine including the heater elements.

5. WATER LEVEL CONTROLS: Under normal conditions and operation, the water level in the tank should not drop more than 1/2″ (13 cm) from the probe. If it does, the tank is not refilling fast enough. Check the water line and water filter; they may need cleaning or replacing.

6. Tank Control Board Part# 349-00012
   (Export 240V Part# L776AL)

7. Water inlet valve Part# CD257L
   (Export 240V Part# CD258L)

8. Water Level Sensor Part# K695QL

Start-up Procedure

NOTICE: Make sure that the Heater Switch, located in rear of unit, is in the OFF position.

1. Connect the 1/4″ dia. copper waterline to the 1/4″ flare water inlet fitting of the valve.
2. Plug the power cord into a proper receptacle.
3. Activate the Power Switch (Toggle Up). The red power indicator light and the green dispense buttons will light up and the tank will start filling. Allow approximately 4-5 minutes for the tank to fill.
4. Activate the Heater Switch. Allow approximately 10-30 minutes for the water to reach a temperature of 190°F (88°C). The heat up time will depend on the water inlet temperature, the input voltage, and the wattage of the elements in the machine.
5. Place a 8 oz. (240ml) or larger cup under the dispense nozzle, press and hold the dispense switch for 6 seconds. The machine will dispense water at the rate of 1 oz. (30ml) per second. Repeat it several times to check for consistent output. This procedure checks that the dispense valve is not air-locked.
6. While the tank is heating, remove the hoppers, load them with products, and reposition them back in the machine. When the green ready light comes on, the tank has reached its brew temperature and the machine is ready to dispense the first cup of Cappuccino or Hot Chocolate.

Filling the Hoppers

1. 1. Pull the door open to access the hoppers.
2. Fill each hopper with the correct product.
3. Reposition hoppers in the hopper compartment, making sure the hoppers are properly seated.

Operation

Your new powdered beverage dispenser is easy to operate and maintain. Before you place it in service, please have all personnel familiarize themselves with these instructions. Keep this manual in a convenient place for ready reference.

How to Operate

To dispense a cup of Hot Chocolate, Cappuccino, or Coffee:

• Place an 8 oz. (240ml) or larger cup under selected drink dispense nozzle.
• Push and hold brew button until cup is 2/3 full, then release button.

Adjustments

Water Flow Rate Adjustment

Adjust water flow rate to correct level in Whipping Chamber. The Dispense Valves are factory adjusted for a maximum Flow Rate of 1 to 1.3 oz./sec (30-38 ml/sec).[Approximate settings: 1.3 oz./sec (38 ml/sec) for COFFEE and CAPPUCCINO] Exceeding this Flow Rate will cause the Mixing Chamber to overflow.
Note: To access the Water Dispense Valves, open door and remove Hoppers.

TO ADJUST WATER FLOW RATE:

1. Open door and remove hoppers. Locate Dispense Valve behind the hoppers, mounted on tank.
2. Locate adjustment screw on Dispense Valve.
3. Using Allen Key or flat screwdriver rotate, 1/4 turn at a time, CLOCKWISE to decrease water flow, or COUNTERCLOCKWISE to increase water flow.
4. Check water flow output, after each 1/4 turn.

Temperature Adjustment (Tank Control Board Type)

1. Locate the Tank Control Board.
2. Press button under right side of display to increase temperature.
3. Press button under left side of display to decrease temperature.
4. Pressing both buttons simultaneously will reset to default 190°F (88°C).

Temperature Adjustment (Thermostat Type)

1. Locate Thermostat: Remove the right side panel. Thermostat is mounted on side of tank. The GB beverage dispensers are factory set to deliver hot brewing water at 190°F (88°C) with the thermostat knob turned to full ON position. If adjustments should be necessary to increase or decrease the water TEMPERATURE, proceed as follows:
   Note: Set the Rinse Switch to ON. This will disengage the Hopper Motors when dispensing water for Temperature measurements.

2. To INCREASE the water temperature – With the Thermostat Knob to its maximum clockwise position, remove the knob and locate the slotted adjustment screw inside the hollow thermostat shaft. Using a narrow-bladed screwdriver, engage slotted adjustment screw and turn it ¼ turn slowly counter-clockwise. Allow a few minutes for the temperature to reach set level. The Heater Light will go ON, indicating the heating element is activated, wait for it to go OFF, indicating that the water has reached new set temperature. Take a temperature reading and repeat if necessary.

3. To DECREASE the water temperature – simply turn the Thermostat Knob one notch counter-clockwise to the next lower dial setting.

Component Tests

Dual Probe Test If lack of water persists, check the probe as follows:

1. Turn on the power and water supply.
2. Check inside the tank to make sure the water is below the Probe.
3. Pull the BLUE wire and terminal OFF the Probe rod. If water still does not flow after the wire is disconnected from the Probe, the problem may be in the Tank Control Board.
4. If water starts flowing into the tank, the Probe may be grounded, due to excessive liming. Check with Ohm meter. Clean probe

Water Inlet Valve Test

1. Turn power OFF. If the water level rises inside a partially filled tank, the Water Inlet Valve is leaking.
2. Disconnect wires from the Water Inlet Valve coil and connect a 2 wire line cord to the terminals. Plug it into a 115V outlet. If water flows in and stops when you pull it out, the Valve is working correctly. Repeat this test a few times. The problem may be in the Probe or Water Level Control Board.
3. If the water does not flow in when the cord is plugged into an electrical outlet, the Solenoid coil may be damaged, opened or the valve may have an obstruction preventing the water from flowing in. Clean or replace it.

Water Level Controller Test

(For models manufactured 2015 and prior)

Check the Controller as follows:

1. Make sure there is power input to the Controller at the terminals AC1 & AC2 Your voltmeter should read 115 Volts. It should read the same at terminals AC1 & FILL when the water level is low. This is the output power to actuate the coil of the Solenoid Valve to open it. The lack of voltage at terminals AC1 & L-LEVEL or H-LEVEL indicates that the Controller is not working properly.
2. Make sure all wire connections are tight, including ground.
3. If after this, the Controller is still failing to open the Water Inlet Valve, replace it.
