Adjusting for Maximum

Grind Fineness

Adjusting the grinder to provide maximum fineness will slightly decrease the grind sizes throughout the grinding range. (To adjust the unit to provide coarser grinds, see page 10.)

1.Empty the bean hopper, then run the grinder a few seconds to clear any remaining beans from the machine.

2.Turn the grind control dial to level “8”.

3.Using a 4 mm wrench, remove the screw located in the front of the grind control dial by turning it counter-clockwise. Hold the grind control dial so that it does not rotate as the screw is removed. Once the screw is free, remove the grind control dial.

The white grind control gear should be visible once the grind control dial is removed.

4.Turn on the unit by flipping the

“O/I” Switch to the “I” position.

5.Rotate the grind control gear clockwise 1 “click” or detent at a time until you hear the burrs touching one another – when they touch, the burrs will make a distinct “rubbing” or grating sound.

6.When the burrs are touching, turn the grind control gear counter-clockwise 1 “click” or detent. The grating or “rubbing” sound will stop. Turn off the grinder by flipping the “O/I” Switch to the “O” position. The grinder is now calibrated to provide maximum fineness.

7.Re-attach the grind control dial, making certain the dial indicator points to grind level “8”.

NOTE: If the burr grinder produces a grating or “rubbing” sound during use, the burrs have been improperly adjusted. Damage to the burrs will result. Readjust the burrs immediately.
