INSTALLATION
Speedster
page 6
1. Use a 20 mm spanner to attach one end of a long high pressure hose to the tap. A gasket is
not needed, the ball-shaped brass end will seal upon tightening. Inside thread on high
pressure hose is 3/8”BSPS.
2. Attach the other end of the high pressure hose to the ingoing side on a suitable water
treatment system (see
Figure I 1
). Tighten with a 20 mm spanner. Do not use excessive force.
3. Attach the short high pressure hose to the outgoing side on the water treatment system.
Tighten with a 20 mm spanner.
4. Attach the other end of the short high pressure hose to the inlet of the pump.
Beware!
The inlet of the pump is marked with an arrow pointing down, towards the pump-
housing (see
Figure I 2
). Tighten with 20 mm spanner.
5. Attach the second long high pressure hose to the outlet of the pump.
Beware!
The outlet of the pump is marked with an arrow pointing upwards, away from the
pump-housing (see
Figure I 2
). Tighten with a 20 mm spanner.
Figure I 2. Pump with inlet and outlet shown.
6. Hold the loose end of the high pressure hose in a bucket and open the tap slowly. Flush the
water treatment system according to manufacturer's instruction. Then flush the pump for a
minute (the pump-motor does not have to run). Check if the water does not show a strange
colour or smell. Close the tap, connect the hose to the fitting at the bottom of the Speedster
with a 20 mm spanner. The Speedster may be tilted in such a way that it rests on the two
hind-legs and the back of the machine, or use (wooden) blocks under the feet see
Figure I 3
.
Note!
Use a permanent marker to write the expiry date on the cartridge and replace the cartridge as
advised by the manufacturer but at least every 12 months, even when the capacity is not
exceeded yet.
7. Open the tap and check the earlier made connections for leakage. Tighten when needed but
do not use excessive force. In the meantime, the front (coffee) boiler will start to fill with water.
