PUMP MAINTENANCE: The EBC300PLUS Electric Beer Line Cleaning Pump features an internal screen to trap contaminant particles before going through the pump. The screen needs to be cleaned periodically for the pump to function properly and prolong the pump's life. The pump will not prime or pump if the screen is not clean. It is recommended that the screen be cleaned regularly every two months or more frequently, depending on pump usage and line cleaning conditions.

To service and clean the internal screen:

1. Remove the housing cover on the pump (the one with the Micro Matic logo).
2. Locate the pump (the brass part hooked to the motor) and remove the large nut on the bottom of the pump.
3. Removing this nut will expose the screen. Clean the screen with a brush and water.
4. Reinstall the screen and replace the cover.

NOTE: Always use proper "brewery-approved" Micro Matic Beer Line Cleaner Chemical when cleaning lines. Use a turbulent circulation action for a minimum of 15 minutes (Brewers Association recommended standard).

PUMP PRIMING INSTRUCTIONS
1. The red handle of the Flow Valve (located on the front of the machine) must be in the closed position, with the handle perpindicular to the hose.
2. the inline filter must be clean and free of foreign material.
3. The strainer at the end of the suction hose must be in place, clean and free of any foregin material.
4. With the discharge hose connected and the suction hose in fresh water turn on pump. Do not connect the discharge hose to the system until the pump has been primed and is pumping properly.
5. Make certain you have hooked up the beer lines in order and you are pumping into an unrestricted system with no blockages.
CAUTION: Make certain the end strainer is in place, clean, and the tube is not clogged or kinked. Failure to do so could allow dirt, grit, sand, etc. to be sucked into the unit. This could block valves and cause the unit to malfunction. If filters are not in place, the warranty is void. Water temperature above 140°F should be avoided
6. For manual operation flip the switch to “ON MANUAL”.
7. For use with Timer flip the switch to the “ON AUTO” then wait for the timer indicator to display

(The timer is preset to work from 1-15 minutes. If a different time limit is required please read the section TIMER PROGRAMING
8. Watch the pressure gauge on the front of the machine. Use the red handle flow valve to adjust the amount of solution passing through the lines. This also controls the pressure in the system.

DO NOT ALLOW THE LINE PRESSURE TO EXCEED 50 PSI.

CAUTION
Line pressure above 50 PSI can damage the lines and cause failure of couplers in the system.
PROTECTING YOUR MACHINE AGAINST DAMAGE
1. DON’T run your unit without inlet water hose in place. This will damage the pump and VOIDS THE WARRANTY.
2. DON’T let particulate matter get into the pump. Foreign material can ruin the pump immediately. THIS VOIDS THE WARRANTY. To keep particles out, never operate your unit without the filter properly installed on the suction tube, and clean. See maintenance procedure
below for further details.
3. Always store your machine in a location where the temperatures will not fall below 32° F. The
pump in this machine is susceptible to damage if frozen.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE
1. Flush unit with clean water after every use.
2. The suction hose is equipped with an IN-LINE STRAINER to protect the pump from foreign material. The filter element of this strainer MUST be kept clean.
Caution: Failure to keep the element clean restricts the flow of fluid to the pump. This causes the pump to “chatter”, or become noisy. It also will cause damage to the pump vanes and VOID THE WARRANTY.
3. How to Clean Filter Element:
a. Disconnect power and water from the machine
b. Disconnect the RED Siphon Hose Assembly from machine
c. Remove the clear nylon bowl from the filter assembly, by turning it clockwise to unthread.
d. Carefully remove the mesh screen filter from the bowl. Clean the bowl in clear water. Also clean all deposits from the mesh screen. -Take Care - NOT to bend or damage the screen.
