8. ADJUSTMENT
Remove the hopper lid ( ), fill the hopper with
coffee ( ), and replace the lid on the hopper
( ) (Fig. 3).
Fig. 3
Plug in the grinder, and place the main power
switch ( ) I - 1 TIMER / 0 - 0 OFF / II - 2
MANUAL to position I - 1 TIMER, I and open
the bean trap ( ) to allow coffee to pass into
the grind chamber.
Fig. 4
8.1. GRINDER SET UP
Place the hopper ( ) on the grind regulator
( ) and make sure the bean trap ( ) is in the
closed position (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1
Lock the hopper ( ) in place using a phillips
head screw driver to gently tighten the hopper
security screw ( ) (Fig. 2).

8. ADJUSTMENT
8.3. GRIND ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
Rotate the grind regulator ( ) until reaching the
grind level desired.
Rotating the grind regulator clockwise will result
in a courser grind; turning the regulator counter
clockwise will result in a finer grinder (Fig. 5).
Fig. 5
8.2. ADJUSTING THE TOP
PORTAFILTER SUPPORT
In order to ensure the proper distribution of
ground coffee in the portafilter, while supporting
the portafilter in a hands-free position during
dosing, it is possible to adjust the height of the
upper portafilter support ( ).
To do this adjustment operation:
1. Loosen the screw on the upper support
( ) by using a #2 Philips screw driver.
2. Adjust the support to the desired height
using the portafilter as the point of reference.
3. Tighten the screw with the #2 Philips
screw driver (Fig. 4).
Fig. 4
NOTE: If the coffee throughput
is very low, this is because the
coffee is being ground very fine.
If the throughput is very high, this
is because the coffee is being
ground very coarse. A perfect
Espresso is produced when the
grinding gives an infusion of 25
ml of coffee in 25 seconds using
about 7 g of ground coffee.
NOTE: It is recommended that
this operation be performed,
when changing to a finer
grinding, with the motor running,
to prevent coffee from building
up between the burrs and
blocking the grinder.

8.4. ADJUSTING THE DOSE
The grind time is pre-set at the factory to grind 7
grams of coffee in 6-7 seconds.
To adjust the grind time, simply turn the timer
knob ( ) found on the front of the grinder (Fig.
6). Turning clockwise will increase the grind
time, and turning the knob counterclockwise
decrease the grind time. The numbers on the
dial correspond with motor run time in seconds.

10. CLEANING
10.1. GENERAL CLEANING
10.1.1 To ensure that the grinder functions
properly, and produces the highest quality grind
possible, the parts that come into contact with
coffee should cleaned periodically.
General Cleaning guidelines as follows:
• Always turn the main power switch to the
off position ( ).
• Unplug the machine from the power
source.
• Do not submerge the grinder in water or
use power washing devices.
• The appliance is not to be cleaned with a
water jet.
10.2. BEAN HOPPER CLEANING
10.2.1 In order to properly clean the bean
hopper ( ), first empty out all remaining beans
and fragments.
To remove the hopper, first close the bean trap
( ), and then loosen the hopper lock screw
( ) and lift the hopper straight up.
Clean the hopper ( ) with a moist soft cloth or
with a small amount of water and neutral soap
to eliminate any oily residue from the beans.
Replace the bean hopper ( ) following the
same steps as the removal process, but in
reverse.
10.3. CLEANING THE GRIND CHAMBER
10.3.1 Compak recommends that the grind
chamber be cleaned monthly with a cleaner .
This process will eliminate smelly residues from
the coffee remains, which can negatively affect
the quality of the brewed coffee.
Care is needed when handling cutting burrs
during cleaning
The steps to follow are:
In order to properly clean the bean hopper
( ), first empty out all remaining beans and
fragments.
• Close the bean trap on the hopper ( )
and grind out the remaining coffee in the
grind chamber.
• Pour the recommended grinder cleaning
product into the bean hopper ( ) and
open the bean trap ( ), allowing the
cleaning product to pass into the grind
chamber.
• Grind the cleaning product at a
medium coarse grind setting until the
recommended amount is passed through
the system and nothing remains in the
grind chamber.
• Clean the hopper ( ) and refill with
coffee beans.
• Discard the first 2-3 doses of coffee to assure
that the residual cleaning product is removed
from the grind chamber and set the grind
regulator to the desired setting ( ).
• Following these steps will ensure that the
grinder is clean and ready for use.
• We do not recommend the taking apart
of the grind assembly unless changing
burrs, or removing a blockage/obstruction
in the grind chamber. Removal of the
grind assembly should be performed by a
qualified service technician.
