YOUR ESPRESSO COFFEE GRINDER #40A – 40APPM, #06 – #06A

• The silent bar espresso coffee grinder #40A, #06-06A is designed for bars, cafés, hotels and restaurants. It is suitable for all types of espresso coffee machines.
• Grinder #40A / #6A has, in addition, an automatic start/stop device to ensure a constant level of ground coffee in the distributor.
• The machine consists of an aluminium grinder unit and base, a transparent plastic bean container, a dose measurer and a dose counter.
• The machine can be used to grind roasted coffee and to deliver it via an adjustable dose measurer.
• The following adjustments can be made:
  • Adjustment of the grinding fineness (from coarse to espresso)
  • Adjustment of the ground coffee measure (from approximately 5.5g to 9.5g).

USING THE MACHINE

STARTING UP:

Assembly and preparation: (fig. A)

1. Model #40A Clip the ground coffee collector (3) onto the base (4).
2. Put the dose measurer lid (24) in place.
3. Put the bean container (2) in place on the grinder body adjustment nut (5).
4. Pour the roasted coffee beans into the bean container and put the lid on the bean container.
5. Open the bean container shutter (6).

USING:

1. Switch the electric current on to the machine by putting the On / Off switch (11) to the 1 position (the motor will start) (fig. B).
   

2. The coffee beans are then ground by the grindstones and the ground coffee leaves the grinder body and goes to fill the dose measurer.

3. Place the filter-holder under the measurer outlet (23) using the filter holder support (22) to help.

4. Pull the measurer handle (21) once or twice to deliver one or 2 measure(s) of ground coffee.

5. Remove the filter-holder and tamp down the coffee with the tamper (20) fixed to the dose measurer.

Note: A 5-figure counter on the side of the dose measurer counts each measure.

For #40A / #06A models: the motor stops automatically when the dose measurer is full. It starts again, after a few measures, when the ground coffee level has dropped sufficiently. Because of this, the machine can be left with the electric power on in position 1 all the time it is being used.

Coffee grinding adjustment:

Note: Never leave the machine to run with the two grindstones in contact. If the grindstones make contact this may result in ground coffee getting jammed in the grinder body and premature wear of the grindstones.

The machine is factory-set so that the “0” mark on the nut graduated plate (5) relates to the finest grinding without the grindstones touching (fig. C).

1. Hold the adjustment screw (5) with one hand and press the indexing pointer (7) with the other
2. Tighten the adjustment nut by turning in a clockwise direction (right handed thread) one or two notches for finer grinding.
3. Loosen the adjustment nut by turning in an anti-clockwise direction (righthanded thread) one or two notches for coarser grinding.
4. Release the indexing pointer (7) to retain the grinding adjustment.
5. Draw off a few measures of coffee to check the grinding adjustment.

Depending on the type of coffee used and the fineness of grinding required, the output may drop considerably. A too fine grinding setting may heat up the coffee and alter its flavour.

Adjusting the measured dose of ground coffee:

The dose measurer should be cleaned regularly to prevent conglomerated blocks of coffee on the cross bars from affecting the dose measurer setting.

The machine is factory-set for a measure of approximately 7g.

1. Turn the machine on and allow the dose measurer to fill up.

2. Draw off 4 to 5 measures; the machine should restart.

3. Wait for the machine to stop and then draw off another 5 to 6 measures.

4. Measure the mass (weight) of the measures after that.

5. Tighten the thumb-wheel (8) by turning in a clockwise direction (right handed thread) to reduce the quantity of ground coffee per measure (the thumb-wheel is adjusted in half-turns) (fig. D).
   

6. Loosen the thumb-wheel (8) by turning in an anti-clockwise direction (righthanded thread) to increase the quantity of ground coffee per measure.

7. Draw off more than 6 measures for the adjustment to be taken into account.

CLEANING:

IMPORTANT:

• In every case, the machine should be stopped and the machine’s power supply cable (10) unplugged.
• Cleaning with a water spray or pressure spray is not permitted.

Clean the dose measurer properly using a brush.
Make sure that the walls of the coffee delivery conduits and the 6 branches of the cross-bars are always clean.

MAINTENANCE

Before carrying out any work on the machine, it is essential to unplug it from the mains and to discharge the motor starting capacitor.

IMPORTANT: Use of spare parts other than certified original SANTOS parts is prohibited.

Discharging the capacitor:

• Unscrew the 2 screws located under the machine in the middle of the base plate (fig. E).
  

• Pull the electrical components unit (20) out of the base plate.

• Using a screwdriver with an insulated handle , touch the 2 capacitor connections (15). The sight of an electric arc shows that the capacitor has been discharged.

Spare parts:

This machine requires no specific maintenance. The bearings are lubricated for life. If work is required to replace worn parts such as the grindstones or theelectric or other components, refer to the parts list (see exploded view at the end of the manual).

For all spare part orders (see references in the exploded view at the end of the manual), state:

• the type,
• the machine serial number and
• the electrical specifications (16) recorded under the machine.

Replacing the grindstones:

IMPORTANT: always change both 2 grindstones (9) at the same time. (use SANTOS reference 00001B)

The 2 grindstones are identical and can be fitted equally either on the moving plate (18) (moving grindstone) or on the adjusting “nut” (5) (fixed grindstone) (fig. F).

1. Close the bean shutter (6) (fig. G) .
   

2. Run the machine until the coffee beans waiting in the grinder body have gone through.

3. Stop the machine and unplug the mains power lead (10).

4. Take off the bean container (2).

5. With one hand, press on the indexing pointer (7) and with the other unscrew the adjustment nut by turning it in an anti-clockwise direction (fig. H).
   
   CARE: When this part is fully unscrewed, handle it with care so as not to damage the brass thread.

6. Unscrew the 3 screws on each grindstone (fig. I). For the moving grindstone, place a screwdriver across the grinder body and the coffee outlet conduit to stop the grindstone-carrier plate from turning on unscrewing or screwing up the grindstone retaining screws.
   

7. Carefully clean the whole grinder body, in particular the grindstone facing areas.

8. Place each grindstone on its support making sure that there is no coffee dust between the grindstone and its support.
   CARE: The slightest small coffee particle under the grindstone may prevent the machine from operating correctly. It is recommended that the grinder body is cleaned with a compressed air jet or a dry brush.
   CARE: do not unscrew the grindstone-carrier plate (18) retaining spindle (17) so as not to upset the assembly geometry (fig. J).
   

9. Once the 2 grindstones have been replaced, with one hand press the indexing pointer (7) and with the other place the “ground coffee adjustment nut” (5) on the grinder body taking care not to damage the thread. Without using force, put the “nut” (5) on the grinder body unscrewing it gently to feel for alignment of the two threads and thus to be able to feed them in without using force. Then tighten until the 2 grindstones come into contact (fig. K).
   

10. Unscrew the “adjustment nut” (5) to free the grindstones in contact.

11. Plug the machine in and switch it on with no coffee.

12. While pressing the indexing pointer with one hand, with the other screw up the “adjustment nut” (5) until the 2 grindstones make slight contact.

13. Stop the machine.

14. Unscrew the graduated plate (12) retaining screws and re-index the graduated plate “0” with the indexing pointer (7) (fig. L).
    

15. Unscrew the “adjustment nut” (5) by 5 to 10 notches

16. With coffee, adjust the ground coffee setting (see “Coffee grinding adjustment” section).

FAULT FINDING

Carefully determine the reason for the machine stopping.
In all circumstances, if the problem persists, disconnect the electric power supply (unplug the mains supply lead plug (10)) and call on someone from the maintenance department or contact an approved SANTOS dealer.

Where appropriate, do not forget to close the bean container shutter (6) before removing the container.

The machine will not start:

• Check: the mains power supply and the condition of the power supply lead (10).

• Check that the On / Off switch indicator (11) lights up when the switch is in the 1 position. If not, replace the switch.

• Check that the grindstones (9) are not making contact preventing the motor from starting.

• Check that there are no foreign bodies stuck between the grindstones.

• Inside the machine, check the condition of the electric wiring and the connections (on the switch (11), on the component support module (20) (fig. N)
  
  (the electric components can be accessed without dismantling the machine) and on the dose measurer automatic device unit (19) (fig. M)).
  

• Check the electric components, replacing them one by one.

The machine stops as a result of motor over-heating: (the motor unit is hot)

The motor is protected by an integral thermal protection. If the motor overheats, it stops.

• Check that there are still coffee beans in the bean container (2).
• Put the On / Off switch (11) to the 0 position and unplug the machine.
• Wait for the motor to cool down (20 to 45 minutes) then press the On / Off switch (11) (position 1).

The machine stops as a result of an overload:

• A foreign body between the grindstones, grindstones making contact, a too fine coffee grinding or intensive operation may result in a motor overload.
• Under these circumstances, either the thermal protection or the excess current protection may be activated and stop the machine operating.
• If the machine is hot, refer to the section “The machine stops as a result of motor overheating”).

Otherwise:

• Turn off the electric power supply (unplug the mains power lead (10))
• Move the On / Off switch (11) to the 0 position.
• Under the machine (fig. O), press the button (13) to reset the excess current protection. If the button does not remain in the “reset” position, allow the machine to cool down before repeating the operation.
  

The machine stops a few minutes after starting.

• Check the electric components (start relay).

If the problem persists, turn the machine electric power off (unplug the mains power lead (10)) and call on someone from the maintenance department or contact an approved SANTOS dealer.

The ground coffee measure is not even

• Check that there are coffee beans in the bean container
• Clean the coffee dose measurer.

The ground coffee jams in the grinder body conduit

• The machine has perhaps been subjected to a vertical blow (e.g.: during transport), remove the dose measurer and check that the seal between the dose measurer and the grinder body outlet conduit has not come out of its housing.

The machine runs for a long time without filling the dose measurer

• Check that there are coffee beans in the bean container.
• Check that the bean container shutter is in the open position.
• Replace the grindstones.
• Check the dose measurer seal is properly positioned (see previous paragraph).
