4.1 Preparing a Suitable Work Area
Many components of the D420 Coffee Dispenser can be serviced or replaced in-situ but
where main assemblies need to be removed from the machine, we recommend that a
work area or temporary mobile work bench be set up adjacent to the machine. Ideally,
this work area should not be less than 10 square feet (1 square metre).
For most service procedures, only the lower front panel or top panel needs to be
removed. Space is required for temporary storage of these panels.
All tools required should be to hand before undertaking any major dissembling.
4.2 Noting Machine Settings
Before undertaking any maintenance on the D420, noting down all of the current user and
engineering mode settings will enable you to return the machine to service exactly as the
original settings.
Note: It will be necessary to change the dispense volume settings for one or more of the
product selection buttons when undertaking some maintenance procedures. These may
need to be reset with the customer present on completion of the work.
The User Settings to note for each Product Select Button are:
• Selection (Enabled or Disabled).
• Selection size (Speed = 1, 2 or 3).
• Dispense Volume (This will need to be measured if the information cannot be
supplied by the customer - see note below)
• Selection strength (water:coffee ratio).
• Set channel (1, 2, 3, 4 ; 1, 2 &3 ; 1 & 2 or 3 & 4 depending on the option
selected in Engineering Mode).
Note: To determine the dispense volumes, set the machine to Coffee Disabled and
undertake a dispense for each Product Select Button into the largest typical container
used by the customer and then measure.
The Engineering Mode settings to note are:
• Temperature Display (Celsius, Fahrenheit, None).
• Maximum Temperature Set.
