3. installation

• The installation must be carried out by authorized La San Marco technical personnel.
• The coffee machine is delivered in a suitable packing. The packing contains the machi-
ne and its accessories, the user manual and the conformity declaration. After opening
the packing, check the proper condition of the coffee machine and its components. In
case of doubt, do not use the appliance, and contact La San Marco S.p.A.
• All of the packaging must be carefully conserved in case the machine needs to be tran-
sported in the future.
• The machine should be placed on a perfectly horizontal plane sufficiently sturdy to
support the weight of the machine, with a sufficient clearance around it to dissipate the
heat generated during its operation.
• Do not install the espresso coffee machine in places where cleaning is likely to be car-
ried out with jets of water. Do not immerge the unit in water to clean it.
• For safety against hazards related to electrical currents, keep the machine away from
sinks, tubs, aquariums, taps, and areas that are wet or where water may splash.
• The machine creates heat. Therefore it needs to be placed in a room that is sufficiently
ventilated to ensure heat dissipation. Keep the machine away from sources of direct
heat.
• Make sure that the voltage of the power socket does not differ from that indicated on
the technical data and on the identification tag on the machine. If the voltage is diffe-
rent, do not connect the machine. This may be dangerous and may damage the unit.

3.1 Equipment provided

the machine packing contains the equipment kit, which includes the following items:
– filter cups with filter restraint ring
– filters for filter cups (single and double doses)
– blind filter for filter cup
– spouts for filter cups (single and double doses)
– press for ground coffee
– rubber tube with stainless steel mesh for water connection (water circuit - water softener)
– rubber drain hose with steel coil for water drain
– 3/8" nipples for hose connection to water supply tube
– cleaning brush for serving units

3.2 Water mains set-up

fEEDING LINE
bring the water feeding tube (of at least 3/8" diameter) up to the machine and install an on-off valve (preferably of
3/8" ball type) that allows a rapid opening and closing operation.
DRAIN LINE
Provide an inspectable drainage pit on the floor connected with the sink drainage line, suitable for receiving
the machine gravity drainage tube. the drain tube must be positioned so that the water flows out freely, with-
out possibility for the pipe to clog up during the operation.

3.3 Water softener (optional)

The water softener for softening the mains water can be manual or automatic, depending on
customer's request.
Before connecting the water softener to the coffee machine, the resins contained in it should be
washed off as described in the user's manual supplied with the appliance.
Note:
The water softener is considered an essential device to guarantee a proper operation of the espresso coffee ma-
chine. A water softening system should be provided in order to guarantee the efficiency, performance and duration
of the components in the machine.
