INSTALLATION
Speedster
page 9
Connect electrics
Beware!
The Speedster has a maximum power consumption of 3100 Watts from your AC-outlet.
This occurs when all three heating elements and the pump are active simultaneously. At
230 Volts this is equivalent to approximately 13.5 Amps. We therefore recommend that
the machine has its own power circuit breaker.
1.
The thinner electrical cord attached to the Speedster is the pump cable and has a
special type of connector. Attach the pump cable to the pump motor using the
special connectors.
2.
Attach the other cable to a 230 VAC earthed power outlet.
3.
Make sure that the Speedster rests on its feet. Turn the main switch on the
machine to “ON”. The main switch is mounted on the model tag on the front of
the machine (see figure 1, item 1).
The machine will now fill both boilers (when the front boiler is not already filled). Put the
3-way brewing lever on the right hand side of the machine (figure 1, item 4) in the
lowest position (“pump on”) until water without air leaves the group. This procedure
expels all air from the coffee boiler.
The display of the PID temperature regulator in the centre of the model tag (see figure 1,
item 2) will not show any value until a minimum water level in the steam boiler is
reached.
When the temperature in the steam boiler reaches boiling point some steam will escape
through the anti-vacuum valve which makes a hissing or sputtering sound inside the
machine. This will stop when the valve is shut by the increasing pressure inside the
steam boiler.
