Designation
This manual applies to the 2-group and 3-group Spirit espresso machines with touchpad or Bastone
operation manufactured by Kees van der Westen Espressonistic Works B.V. Separate rotational
pumps with electric motors are part of the appliance.
Safe operation
•
The espresso machine has to be placed in a horizontal position on a sturdy and flat surface.
•
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
•
The new hose-sets supplied with the appliance are to be used. Old hose-sets should not be
reused.
•
Intended use of the appliance is restricted to well-trained personnel only.
•
The appliance must be installed in locations where it can be overseen by trained personnel.
•
The appliance may not be left unattended when there is the possibility that children and/or
vulnerable people can reach the machine.
•
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the
hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall
not be made by children without supervision.
•
The mains electricity the appliance is connected to must include a residual-current-circuit-breaker
of 30 mA.
•
The appliance may not be cleaned with the aid of a water jet.
•
The appliance is not suited for outdoor use.
•
Ambient temperature for correct operation of the appliance is 10-30°C (50-86°F).
•
If ambient temperature falls below 5°C (41°F), keep the machine at ECO or ON to prevent freezing
of water inside the machine.
Note that the external rotational pump should be kept above freezing point of water as well.
Whenever the machine and/or pump have suffered freezing conditions, ask a technician to start-
up the appliance again.
Advice for installation personnel
We do our utmost to have the machine in optimal condition before it is crated. Unfortunately storage
and/or shipment sometimes has a negative effect on the state of the machine upon arrival.
Note!
We recommend to check and bench-test each machine in your workshop immediately after delivery
and certainly
before installation at a client’s location.
Body panels may become affected by prolonged exposure to salty air (transport by sea). Stains on
shiny stainless steel and polished aluminium can be removed with silver-polish and a soft cloth. Stains
on painted parts may be wiped off with wet towel, possibly with the addition of a mild detergent.
Prolonged storage may also result in deposition/crystallisation of water-dissolved minerals that can
block the small openings in the machine (restrictors underneath fill valve, group valves and such) thus
affecting the performance of the machine.
Despite our careful packaging, handling of the crate may be so rough that the frame bends or parts
get damaged during transport. It is noted that the customer is responsible for additional insurance
during transport as standard compensation from the shipping company will not cover all costs.
