Tools Needed:
- 19mm deep socket with extension
-Scouring pad or wire bristle brush
- PTFE tape (al
1. Remove the top panel from the machine.
2. Identify the machine's fill probe.
3. Remove the electrical connector from the fill probe.
4. Use the deep socket and socket wrench to unscrew the fill probe.
NOTE: If you don't have a deep socket, you can use a regular crescent wrench, but you will need to completely remove the wrap around side panel from the machine first.
5. Clean off any debris or build-up from the fill probe threads and from the top of the boiler.
6. Use a scouring pad or a wire bristle brush to clean any build-up from the fill probe. The probe should be clean and shiny before re-installing.
7. Use PTFE tape to wrap the fill probe threads. This will seal the connection with the boiler and stop any leaking.
8. Re-install the fill probe in the machine. Purge the steam boiler and test for steam leaks before replacing the top panel.
NOTE: You will need to purge the steam boiler before it can be used. To accomplish this, follow these steps:
- Start with the machine off.
- Open the steam valve fully.
- Direct the steam wand into a large cup or pitcher.
- Plug the machine in and power it on.
- Allow the machine to fully heat both boilers.
- As the steam boiler comes up to temperature, it will purge all of the excess water from the boiler. Allow this process to continue as long as necessary.
- Eventually, the steam wand will dispense only steam, you can now close the steam valve and allow the machine to finish heating.
- Check for steam leaks.
