Speedster page 42
Figure 29. Showing the brewing lever mechanism. Adjustment of the lever w.r.t. the
switches can be made by loosening the lower 2 Allen bolts underneath the frame.
Notes
The force required to press the lever down can be adjusted with the Allen set screw (2.5
mm) on top of the lever mechanism.
The two self-locking nuts at the back of the lever mechanism adjust the force by which
the lever is pressed horizontally against the slotted front guiding plate (and the amount
by which the lever protrudes from the front of the machine). Be sure the front of the
lever is pulled ever so lightly against the most outward (right hand) side of the slot in the
guiding plate.
Drain all water when freezing is possible
Because boiler freeze-up will lead to the need of replacing the affected boiler your
Speedster should never be in a freezing environment unless all water is drained from it.
Cargo bays in ships and planes are normally not temperature controlled and cannot be
trusted to remain above freezing at all times.
Materials needed
Spanner 13 mm, 17 mm
Allen key 3 mm, 5 mm

Bucket
Towel and/or sponge
