Installation 

(For Qualified Service Technicians Only) 

Keys To A Successful Installation 

If not installed correctly by qualified personnel, the brewer may not operate properly and damage may result.  

Damages resulting from improper installation are not covered by the warranty. 

Here are the key points to consider before installation: 

Electrical: 

All FETCO brewers require NEUTRAL.  Ground is not an acceptable substitute.  Installation without neutral 

may cause damage to the electronic components. 

The power connection to L2 on the terminal block must be at least 105 volts.  Less than 105 volts will 

cause erratic behavior from the brewer. 

The circuit breaker is located on the bottom of the brewer. To reset it, push the button in and release. 

The electrical drawing for the brewer is located on the inside of the upper cover. 

Plumbing: 

This equipment is to be installed to comply with the applicable federal, state, or local plumbing codes. 

The water line must be flushed thoroughly prior to connecting it to the brewer to prevent debris from 

contaminating the machine. 

Verify that the water line will provide at least ½  gallons per minute for the CBS-11H, and 1 ¼ gallons per 

minute for the CBS-12H before connecting it to the brewer. 

General: 

  Utilize only qualified beverage equipment service technicians for installation.  A Service Company Directory 

may be found on our web site, http://www.fetco.com. 

Installation Instructions 

Brewer Setup  

1.  Review the Dimensions for the unit you are installing.  Verify that the brewer will fit in the space intended 

for it, and that the counter or table will support the total weight of the brewer and dispensers when filled. 

2.  The brewer’s legs are shipped inside the brew baskets.  Remove the brew basket(s) and the coffee 

dispenser(s).  Place the brewer on its back and screw in the legs. 

3.  Place the brewer on the counter or stand. 

4.  When the brewer is in position, level it front to back 

and side to side by adjusting the legs. 

5.  Remove the lower cover to access the water and 

electrical connections.  Knock-outs are provided in the 

back and base of the brewer body for the connections. 

Water Connection 

1.  Water inlet is a 3/8 inch male flare fitting. 

2.  The brewer can be connected to a cold or hot water line.  Cold water is preferred for best coffee flavor, but 

hot water will allow for faster recovery times. 

3.  Install a water shut off valve near the brewer to facilitate service.  If an in-line water filter is used, it should 

be installed after the water shut off valve and in a position to facilitate filter replacement. 

4.  Flush the water supply line and filter before connecting it to the brewer. 

5.  Verify that the water line will provide at least ½ gallons per minute for the CBS-11H, and 1 ¼ gallons per 

minute for the CBS-12H, and that the water pressure is between 20 and 75 psig. 

6.  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. 

Warning: Legs are to be adjusted for 

                  leveling the brewer only.  Do not use 

                  for height adjustment or extend them 

                  higher than necessary.
