The following describes some of the general maintenance procedures that must be followed to
keep the Zuma brewer functioning properly at all times. All of these procedures are simple and can
be done in just minutes.
BREW CHAMBER TENSION ADJUSTMENT
During a brew cycle, if a leak develops between the brew chamber and the screen assembly, some
minor adjustments may be required. This leaking is an indication that the brew chamber is not
closing tightly enough.
If this is the case, the following procedure should
be performed,
1. Press the red “
LOAD FILTER TAPE
” button
to open the brewer, and remove the
brew chamber by lifting the latch bar
and pulling it towards you.
2. Push down on the H-frame, and lift the
vertical rod (T-bar) out of its recession.
3. Add a stainless steel Zuma brewer shim
(full shim - K011950 or half-shim - K011191)
into the recession, and re-insert the T-
bar.
4. Re-install the brew chamber and test
the brewer by making several cups of
coffee.
NOTE:
In most cases, this simple procedure is enough to stop the leaking. However, if the brewer
still leaks at this point, repeat the above procedure and add one more shim. If the problem
is still not corrected, remove all the stainless steel shims, turn the T-bar one complete
rotation clockwise, then re-insert it into the recession on the h-frame.
CAUTION:
Do not over-tighten the T-bar as too much pressure will cause damage to
the brewer. If wiper blade throws the coffee patty against the side of the
machine, the T-bar is too tight.
