Operating Instructions

The spray head assembly is an integral part of the coffee brewing process, distributing water evenly over the coffee grounds. Once installed, its operation is typically automatic, controlled by the main coffee brewing equipment. Ensure the assembly is securely in place before initiating any brew cycles.

• Water Flow: The assembly is designed to provide an optimal spray pattern for efficient extraction.
• Temperature: It is built to withstand the high temperatures of brewing water.
• Electrical Connection: The 240V electrical connection powers internal components, such as a solenoid, which controls water flow to the spray head.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning and inspection of the spray head assembly are crucial for maintaining coffee quality and equipment longevity.

• Daily Cleaning: After each day of use, remove the spray head assembly (if easily detachable) and rinse it thoroughly under warm water to remove coffee residues. Use a soft brush if necessary to clear any clogged holes.
• Descaling: Depending on water hardness, periodic descaling may be required. Follow your coffee brewer's descaling instructions, which typically involve running a descaling solution through the system. Ensure the spray head is clean of scale buildup.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the spray head for any signs of wear, damage, or mineral buildup that could impede water flow or spray pattern. Replace the assembly if significant damage is observed.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your coffee brewer related to water distribution, consider the following:

• Uneven Water Distribution: Check the spray plate holes for clogs from coffee grounds or mineral buildup. Clean thoroughly.
• No Water Flow: Ensure the electrical connection to the spray head's solenoid is secure. Verify that the main coffee brewer is receiving power and that its water supply is open. The solenoid might be faulty if no water flows despite power and water supply being present.
• Leaking: Check all connections for tightness. Inspect the spray head assembly for cracks or damage.

For persistent issues, consult the main coffee brewer's instruction manual or contact Fetco customer support.
