ZUMA BREWER CAST ALUMINUM ARM UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS 

Instructions P/N – N016464 

May 7, 2001 

Zuma – Cast Aluminum Arm Upgrade 

 

1.  Remove the old Zuma brewer arms. 

a)  Open the brewer and remove the brew chamber. 

b)  Rotate the T-bar 180° to allow the H-frame to open completely. 

c)  Make sure the crank arm is at about the 5 o’clock position. 

d)  Remove the two ‘C’-clips that secure the wipe arm and unwipe 

arm shafts in place. These clips are located on the front of the 
brewer mainframe, just below the brew cylinder 

(Figure 1).

 

e)  From the front of the brewer, push the two arm shafts out the back 

of the brewer. These will free the two older arms 

(Figure 1).

 

f)  From the top of the brewer, push the arms out the bottom of the 

brewer. 

g)  Once done, the wipe arm spring and two plastic bushings will fall 

out of the brewer. The two bushings can be discarded, 

but the 

spring is still required.

 

 

2.  Install the new Zuma brewer arms. 

a)  Position the spring onto the wipe arm boss (round protrusion) as 

illustrated 

(Figure 2).

 

b)  Slide the wipe arm into the brewer from the bottom. 

c)  Secure the wipe arm (and spring) in place by installing the wipe 

arm shaft. 

d)  Secure the wipe arm shaft in place by installing the ‘C’-clip. 

e)  Slide the spring hook tool (

p/n – M027019

) through the top right of 

the brewer towards the wipe arm spring 

(Figure 3).

 

f)  Hook the smaller end of the wipe arm spring and pull upwards on 

the tool. This will rotate the spring into position and allow you to 
secure the end of the spring (small hook) onto the inner part of the 
wipe arm 

(Figure 3).

 

g)  Turn the brewer shaft until the crank arm is in the 9 o’clock 

position. 

h)  Slide the unwipe arm into the brewer from the bottom. 

i) 

Place the loop of the spring onto the boss (round protrusion) of 
the arm. You may need to use a small screwdriver to lift the spring 
onto the boss. 

j) 

Secure the unwipe arm (and spring) in place by installing the 
unwipe arm shaft. 

k)  Secure the unwipe arm in place by installing the ‘C’-clip. 

l) 

Turn the brewer shaft until the crank arm is in the 5 o’clock 
position. 

m)  Slide the spring hook tool through the top left of the brewer 

towards the unwipe arm spring 

(Figure 4).

 

n)  Hook the end of the unwipe arm spring and pull upwards on the 

tool. This will allow you to secure the end of the spring (small 
hook) onto the inner part of the unwipe arm 

(Figure 4).

 

o)  Re-install the H-frame and the brew chamber. 

p)  Test the brewer to verify the operation of the arms and the tension 

on the brew chamber. Make any necessary adjustments.
