Foreign Matter in the Grinding Chamber
:
a. Set the adjusting knob on the right side to #9 and start/stop the grinder a few times.
50% of the time, the problem might clear itself out. If the grinder still does not run,
proceed as follows.
b.
Switch the grinder off and unplug the power cable.
c.
Do not lift the hopper (funnel) while it contains coffee beans
.
d. Remove the coffee beans from the hopper, using a vacuum cleaner if necessary.
e. Remove the 4 corner screws holding the lid/cover assembly and remove it with the
hopper.
i.
On 804 model grinders
, loosen the right rear STOP lock.
ii. Hold the hopper assembly, twist it 30° counter-clockwise and lift.
f. Dismantle the stationary disc flange by removing the 4 cheese head screws. Pull out
the stationary disc and set it aside. If the stationary disc does not come out easily, tap
the circumference where the bolts are located with the handle of your screwdriver. This
should loosen any coffee grinds that may be wedged between the disc and the
grinding housing.
g. Remove any foreign matter and vacuum the grinding chamber. Inspect the grinding
discs and rotating plate for possible damage or wear.

Reassembling the Coffee Grinder
:
a. Cleanliness is a must to get a good, uniform grind. All mating parts have to be very
clean to get Turkish fine grind with your grinder. Your grinder parts are precision
machined. Even the smallest amount of coffee particles between parts would nullify
the precision quality work.
b. The circumference of the grinding chamber where the 4 cheese head screws attach,
as well as the mating surface on the stationary disc flange (top plate) must be perfectly
clean.
c. Replace the stationary disc flange and the 4 cheese head screws, and tighten the
screws.
d. Replace the cover with the plastic funnel.
e. Set the adjustment on #1 (Turkish) and grind 10-15 beans. The output should be a
very fine powder. If the output is not satisfactory, adjust the grinder as in Paragraph #5
below.
5. Adjusting the Grinder for the Proper Grind
a. Turn the grinder on with no coffee in it.
b. Turn the adjustment setting on the side to #1.
c. Loosen the center screw of the adjusting knob about 3/16
th
of an inch. You need to be
able to pull the adjusting knob away from the machine to disengage the gear.
d. Pull out the knob and, while still in the pulled position, turn it until the #5 is in front of
the red arrow. Release the adjusting knob.
e. Turn the adjusting knob
slowly
towards #1 until you hear metal scraping (the grinding
discs touching). If they do not touch, repeat step #5 above.
f. When you hear the metal, turn the adjusting knob back the distance on
one line
.
(Counter clockwise).
