Coffee grinder
assembly
The motor was designed to operate for more than 200000
grinding cycles and the grinding wheels can ensure correct
grinding for at least 50000 cycles.
However, these values can vary because of possible
impurities in the coffee (pebbles, pieces of hard wood, etc.),
therefore it is advisable, except for premature wear, to
check and if necessary replace the grinding wheels every
50000 cycles.
Every 200000 cycles check the state of wear of the
ratiomotor brushes, if necessary replace and clean off the
wear residues.
In addition, every month check the correct positioning of the
grinding wheels and if necessary adjust to the correct
setting by means of the knurled knob.
