8.3. ADJUSTMENT OF PK 100 LAB
PORTAFILTER HOLDER
The standard conguration is useful for
most portalter holders on the market.
However, depending on the geometry of
each lter holder, it can be adjusted as
follows for a good t:
1. Release the portalter spring clamp,
for this, release the screw that xes
them to the holder with the help of a
star-head screwdriver (Fig.3).
2. The springs clamps have an A and a
B engraved on the inside.
3. Once the springs clamps have been
removed, mount them in the opposite
position to that they were in when
they arrived, i.e. the A where the B was
and the B where the A was to get the
adjustment so that the lter holder ts
and is held proper.
NOTE: The PK holder is not adjustable.
For lter holders with diagonal wings, the
standard portalter spring clamp must be
replaced by the ones supplied separately.

9.1. GENERAL CLEANING
To guarantee proper operation of the
grinder, as well as good quality ground
coffee, it is necessary to periodically clean
the parts that come into contact with the
coffee.
• To clean the machine:
• Always turn off the grinder at the
power switch (
).
• Disconnect the machine from the
power supply
• Do not submerge the grinder in water
or use power washing devices.
• The appliance is not to be cleaned
with a water jet or a steam cleaner.
9.2.CLEANING THE COFFEE BEAN
HOPPER/ SINGLE DOSE CUPPING
To clean the single dose cupping/ hopper
thoroughly (
) rst, all the coffee in the
hopper must be used up. Remove the single
dose cupping as shown in section 8.
The cupping (
) can be washed with
a damp cloth or with soap and water to
remove the oily residues produced by the
coffee, rinse it thoroughly and dry it.
9. CLEANING
To ret the coffee bean hopper ( ) onto
the grinder, follow the steps described
above in reverse.
9.3. CLEANING THE GRINDING
CHAMBER
We recommend cleaning the coffee
grinding chamber weekly with a
Compak cleaning product. This has the
advantage of eliminating the remains of
coffee and the oils, which can go off and
spoil the quality of the coffee. The steps
to follow are these
• Grind the coffee left inside the
grinding chamber
• Put 60 g of the cleaning product into
the cupping (
).
• Grind up all the Compak cleaning
product to a medium neness so it
works properly
• Clean the hopper (
) and ll with
coffee.
• Throw away the rst 2-3 doses of
coffee and adjust the grinder to the
desired neness (
).
After following these instructions, the
grinder will be clean and ready to work.

9. CLEANING
We do not recommend dismantling the
grinding system, except to carry out a burrs
change operation, which must be carried
out by a qualied technician because of the
precision required during the operation.
9.4. CLEANING THE COFFEE NOZZLE
It is very important to continue cleaning
the coffee outlet (
) in order to ensure
consistency in the doses and the best
quality ground coffee. Use a tubular brush
for that cleaning.
9.5. CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
For exterior cleaning, rst use a dry brush
and then a cloth lightly moistened with
soap and water.
Notice: It is recommended to
do this cleaning at least once a
month.
NOTE: Not carrying out these
cleaning operations will
negatively affect the flavour and
aroma of the coffee.

10. MAINTENANCE
10.1. GENERAL NOTICE
Before performing any type of maintenance
operation:
• Always switch off the grinder at the
power switch (
) putting it into the
OFF position.
• If the machine is blocked, disconnect
the equipment from the mains and
contact the authorised technical
service.
• Unplug it from the mains network.
In the event of a fault or malfunction,
turn off the device, never try to repair it, it

Steel
LAB/SHOP
9000 Kg
10.2. GENERAL MAINTENANCE
As well as the cleaning operations
described in the previous section, in order
to ensure the grinder operates well and to
ensure the best quality of ground coffee,
periodic and preventive maintenance of
the milling unit must be carried out by the
qualied technical service.
Burrs in poor condition lead to poor quality
ground coffee as they get very hot, and
they also lead to higher electrical power
draw by the equipment.
Failure to comply with this
warning can compromise the
safety of both the device and
the user.
