SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

606 Owners Manual for 8742-8748 Tea Brewer 76116

SOLENOID TIME ADJUSTMENT

The amount of water dispensed automatically during a brew cycle is controlled by the SOLENOID TIME section of the controller.

Place empty dispenser under brew chamber. Press the BREW switch. Including both brew water and dilution water, brewer should dispense:

A total of 3 gallons (Model 8742) of water; or, A total of 5 gallons (Model 8748) of water.

To adjust: Remove top panel.

Total delivered volume is dependant upon the total time the solenoid is energized. Adjust timer; clockwise increases time; counterclockwise decreases time. Run several cycles to check total amount of water delivered.

Adjust dilution. Turn needle valve all the way in (closed), then open 4-1/2 turns.

Brew several batches of tea to check for proper concentration and taste. Readjust needle valve and timer as required. Reinstall top panel.

REMOVE TANK COVER ASSEMBLY

Unplug brewer or turn circuit breaker OFF. Turn OFF water supply. Remove top panel.

Disconnect brew fill and outlet tubes from tank lid fittings.

Disconnect all wiring from thermostat, hi-limit and heating element.

Loosen center screw on tank hold-down bracket. Remove hold-down bracket by sliding short slotted end off of locking stud and lifting it off. Remove cover assembly by lifting it straight up. Reassemble in reverse order.

REPLACE THERMOSTAT

Unplug brewer or turn circuit breaker OFF. Turn OFF water supply. Remove top panel.

Disconnect all wiring from thermostat only. Loosen and free jam nut from pass-thru fitting securing temperature sensing bulb. Remove two screws holding thermostat to bracket.

Lift out thermostat, sensing bulb and thermostat gasket. Reassemble in reverse order.

IMPORTANT: Water pressure must be between 20 p.s.i and 90 p.s.i. flowing pressure.

If water pressure exceeds this value, or if water pressure varies greatly, a pressure regulator must be installed in the water supply line.
