Installation Guide
(For Qualified Service Technicians Only)
General:
1. If not installed correctly by qualified personnel, the brewer will not operate properly, and damage may result
2. Utilize only qualified beverage equipment service technicians for service and installation.
3. Always have an empty dispenser under spray head of all brewing equipment-including when at idle
4. Damages resulting from improper installation are not covered by the warranty and will void the warranty.
Below are the key points to consider before installation:
Electrical:
1. All CBS—Series brewers require an electrical ground. Installation without grounding is dangerous.
2. Verify electrical outlets, voltages, circuits, and circuit breaker access before attaching equipment.
3. Plug the unit into the appropriate 15 or 20 amp circuit. Use a dedicated circuit for brewing equipment.
4. An electrical diagram is located in the User’s Guide and online at www.fetco.com.
5. The installation must comply with applicable federal, state, and local codes having jurisdiction at your
location. Check with your local inspectors to determine what codes will apply.
Plumbing:
1. This unit has two water connections, each must be connected to the water supply.
One connection is the water inlet for brew, the other is for dilution. Both must be plumbed.
2. North America: All installations must comply with applicable federal, state, or local plumbing codes
3. All Others: The water and waste piping and connections shall comply with the International Plumbing Code
2003, International Code Council (ICC), or to the Uniform Plumbing Code 2003 (IAPMO).
4. Use an inline water filter for all beverage equipment.
5. Install the filter unit after a water shutoff valve and in a position to facilitate filter replacement.
6. The water line and newly installed filter cartage must be flushed thoroughly prior to connecting it to the
brewer to prevent debris from contaminating the machine.
7. Verify that the water line will provide a flow rate of at least 1½gpm/(5.7lpm) per minute and the water
pressure is between 20-75 psig (138-517kPa) before making any connections.
8. Use a wrench on the factory fitting when connecting the incoming water line. This will reduce stress on the
internal connections and reduce the possibility of leaks developing after the install has been completed
9. Install a backflow prevention device. Most municipalities require a recognized backflow preventer.
Usable on all hot beverage and cold beverage equipment is a WATTS® SD-2 or SD-3.
WATTS spring loaded double check valve models are accepted by most zoning authorities.
The check valve should be as close to the water supply inlet of the beverage equipment as possible.

Calibrations
-Set the volumes for the brew & dilution valves to adjust for taste, profile and for over/under potting.
Brew volume and Dilution volume can be individually adjusted by user
-Set volumes and brew water temperature on the control board.
-The volumes are set by timers that control how long the brew and dilution valves are open.
-!These adjustments can expose the operator to high voltage and hot water and surfaces.!
-Unplug machine when servicing and use great care around hot surfaces.
There are two parts of the iced tea brewing cycle: BREW with HOT water and DILUTION with COLD water.
The brewer default ratio is 1 to 2 . Brew is approximately 1 gallon, Dilution is approximately 2 gallons
Brew cycle is 3min.: 35sec. shown in PROGRAMMING as 215 seconds.
Dilution cycle is 1min:50 sec shown in PROGRAMMING as 110 seconds.
1) MEASURE THE FLOW RATE:
MEASURE FOR BREW VOLUME
-Place an empty 3gal dispenser under empty brew basket.
-Press START button and wait the 215 seconds [3min. 35sec.] for brew cycle to complete
Immediately press START again to STOP the dilution cycle from starting
-Measure and record this volume. This is the Brew Volume. Default is 1 gallon
MEASURE FOR DILUTION VOLUME
-Empty dispenser and replace it under brew basket and press START to brew. Allow to complete
-Measure and record this volume. Default is 3 gallons. This is the total brew and dilution volume.
SUBTRACT THE TWO VOLUMES TO OBTAIN DILUTION VOLUME
-Subtract the First Brew Volume from Second Brew Volume to obtain DILUTION VOLUME
-Raise and lower flow rates as desired by setting times-in seconds in PROGRAMMING MODE
2) ADJUST THE FLOW RATES
-Using the chart on the following page: Enter programming and set up or down.
Remember to SAVE by holding START button 5 seconds.
3) MEASURE THE BREW WATER TEMPERATURE
With brewer filled- and ready to brew (light ring in start button glows with WHITE LED)
Enter SETTINGS mode, scroll by pushing START button to C1 and press black button on control board.
Board will display tank temperature on the control board
4) ADJUST THE HOT WATER TANK TEMPERATURE
Hold down black button to scroll through the temperature range (170°F-207°F) and stop at new setting
SAVE the new temperature setting by holding START button 5 seconds-then turn brewer OFF then ON.
