Installation Check list
Page 2 of 2
Set Cafina Pump Pressure to 8 bars. Go to the service position,
select handling, and switch the pump on. Check pressure on gauge.
Turn off pump and release pressure by running the bypass valve,
adjust pump as needed and check again.
Run the Reference. If beans are available at the time of installation,
follow the Run Reference instructions in the service manual.
Run Each Drink. Test each drink button at least once.
Test Steam and Water buttons.
Run A Cleaning Cycle.
Check over equipment for shipping damage. Report any damage found to Michaelo:
800-545-2883.
Check Incoming Water Pressure. It should be between 45 PSI and 90 PSI, if the
incoming pressure is greater than 90 PSI there MUST be a pressure reducer placed in
the line. Preferably before the filtration system.
Flush Incoming Water Line. Run several gallons of water through the lines at full force
before connecting to the machine. This is extremely important; there are several very
small ports that will become clogged if this procedure is not followed.
Install long legs.
Hook up Water Line. Use white Teflon washers as needed.
Install Drain Hose with clamp provided and ensure that it runs continuously downward.
The end of the hose should have an air gap at the floor drain.
Purge Brew Boiler. Unscrew the top of the Hex shaped Safety valve above the brew
boiler until water flows out into the drip tray. Re-tighten valve.
Check White Coffee Chute. Should be snug against grinders, tighten screw.
Check Piston Assembly Mounting Screws. Screws can work loose in shipping.
Check Incoming Voltage and Amperage. The Cafina requires 208v MINIMUM, and
ideally 220v. The unit is 5400W and MUST have a 30-amp breaker.
Do Not plug Cafina in until Water is hooked up.

Evaluating Grinder Burr Condition from the Grind Time Reading
Evaluating Grinder Burr Condition from the Grind Time Reading
New Burrs = less than 1.7
Normal Burrs = 1.2 - 2.25**
*If Double Shot is not 14 Grams, call Michaelo for grind time range
**If time = greater than 2.25 - Call Michaelo for advice
FOR 14 GRAM DOUBLE SHOT*
FOR 14 GRAM DOUBLE SHOT*
The condition of the grinder burrs is
monitored by watching the change in grinding time
for the reference drinks. The grind time increases as the
grinder burrs wear out. Worn burrs take longer to grind
the same amount of coffee.
Check each Grinder Separately

Clogged Filters may cause:
“no water” reading
DP 31 (Boiler slow to fill)
DP 11 & 13 (poor flow through coffee)
Bypass Valve
Should be Closed all the time
Flushing Valve
Incoming
Water Pressure
Water Pressure
to Cafina
The water pressure to the Cafina will slowly decrease over
time as the filters become clogged.
Test the flow through the filters by opening the Flushing valve.
The outgoing gauge may still read high with clogged filters if
no water is being used, but will drop as soon as the flushing valve
is opened.
The Coarse Filter should be changed when it turns brown.
When the filters clog up it shows that they’re working. They are
stopping the coarse and fine sediment from harming the machine
and changing the taste of the coffee.

Remove the Steam Tip
Fill a Milk Pitcher with cold water (Never use any cleaner!)
Heat the Steam Wand by running it for 10 seconds
Turn the Steam off and immediately insert the Wand into the
cold water
Run Steam again for 2 seconds then turn off
Wait 10 seconds for the water to be sucked up into the wand/
valve
Repeat steps 5 and 6 four to five times to soften and flush out
the clog
Refill the pitcher with fresh cold water and repeat if needed
Steam Wand Backflush
Steam Wand Backflush Page 1 of 1
A clogged Steam Tip is the most
likely cause of weak steam flow.
Remove the Steam Tip by unscrewing it
from the wand and clean out the holes.
If cleaning the tip doesn’t restore good flow
try this cold water backflushing procedure:
NEVER leave the steam wand in the milk pitcher.
The milk will be sucked up into the wand and may contaminate the boiler.

Page 4 of 8 Replace the Step Motor Cable even if
it looks OK. The stress from thousands
of cycles can damage the wires even if
the outer insulation looks fine.
1Unplug connector and disconnect cable clamps from Step Motor control Board
2Plug the cable end without jumper wires into the circuit board
3Secure the cable clamp
4Set the Step Motor Board aside until you have reinstalled the piston
5Cable MUST be threaded through guides on step motor frame!
NOTE:
Inspect the new cable. Notice that, although the connectors at each end of the
cable are identical, one end has two black jumper wires attached. This end of
the cable must be connected to the Step Motor.
