Safety instructions

 

 

Keep children away from packaging materials. Plastic bags can cause 
choking. 

Make sure the power cable(s) are undamaged. Do not use the product if 
the power cable(s) are damaged due to risk of fire and electric shock. 

 

The product must be positioned on a flat and stable surface before use. 

 

Connectors and clamps should be checked and tightened if necessary, 
before each use to avoid leaks. 

 

 

The surface of the product gets very hot. Do not touch hot steel parts 
during use due to risk of scalding and burns. 

Learn the function of the valves before you fill the tank with water. Use 
blind caps on unused output ports due to risk of spillage of boiling/hot 
liquid that may cause scalding and burns. 

Do not fill the tank passed the maximum mark. During boiling, reduce 
the power to avoid boil over. Risk of scalding and burns. 

The product has a powerful pump. Before using the pump, make sure 
valves are set to the correct position. The pump speed can be adjusted 
on the touch screen. Too much flow through the pump, for example 
during circulation over the grains can cause liquid to spray outside the 
tank. Risk of scalding and burns. 

 

The heating elements are designed to heat liquids and must not be 
turned on without being completely submerged. Boiling liquids will 
evaporate and reduce the volume in the tank over time. During 
circulation the liquid around the malt pipe will be reduced. Make sure 
there is always enough flow to keep the heating elements covered. The 
product must not be used without supervision  

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Make sure the power cables are inserted correctly. There are grooves in 
the connectors that needs to match the sockets. 

During cleaning, the power supply must be disconnected. The machine 
must not be sprayed down on the outside. The electrical control system 
is protected from water splashes, but not spraying water. 

The product is mostly constructed of highly conductive materials. Only 
use the product on circuits with a residual circuit breaker due to risk of 
electric shock in the event of an electric component failure. 

The power cable(s) must be disconnected when the product is not in 
use. 

If you find a fault with the product that may pose a risk, stop using the 
product and contact the manufacturer or the reseller.
