SANTOS : User and maintenance manual
For #40A / #06A models: the motor stops automatically when the dose measurer is full. It
starts again, after a few measures, when the ground coffee level has dropped sufficiently.
Because of this, the machine can be left with the electric power on in
position 1
all the
time it is being used.
Coffee grinding adjustment:
Note
: Never leave the machine to run with the two grindstones in contact. If the
grindstones make contact this may result in ground coffee getting jammed in the
grinder body and premature wear of the grindstones.
The machine is factory-set so that the "0" mark on the nut graduated plate (5) relates to
the finest grinding without the grindstones touching (fig. C).
1. Hold the adjustment screw (5) with one hand and press the indexing pointer (7)
with the other
2. Tighten the adjustment nut by turning in a clockwise direction (right-handed
thread) one or two notches for finer grinding.
3. Loosen the adjustment nut by turning in an anti-clockwise direction (right-
handed thread) one or two notches for coarser grinding.
4. Release the indexing pointer (7) to retain the grinding adjustment.
5. Draw off a few measures of coffee to check the grinding adjustment.
Depending on the type of coffee used and the fineness of grinding required, the output
may drop considerably. A too fine grinding setting may heat up the coffee and alter its
flavour.
Adjusting the measured dose of ground coffee:
The dose measurer should be cleaned regularly to prevent conglomerated blocks of
coffee on the cross bars from affecting the dose measurer setting.
The machine is factory-set for a measure of approximately 7g.
1. Turn the machine on and allow the dose measurer to fill up.
2. Draw off 4 to 5 measures; the machine should restart.
3. Wait for the machine to stop and then draw off another 5 to 6 measures.
4. Measure the mass (weight) of the measures after that.
5.
Tighten the thumb-wheel (8)
by turning in a clockwise direction (right-handed
thread) to
reduce
the quantity of ground coffee per measure (the thumb-wheel
is adjusted in half-turns) (fig. D).
6.
Loosen the thumb-wheel (8)
by turning in an anti-clockwise direction (right-
handed thread) to
increase
the quantity of ground coffee per measure.
7.
Draw off more than 6 measures
for the adjustment to be taken into account.
