1) Remove bottle cap.
2) Slide a white tubular plastic adapter over the neck of each liquor bottle until the bottle
seats itself against the shoulder of the adapter.
3) Remove the blue plastic protective cap from reservoir port and save it.
4) Bend the nozzle of the white plastic adapter over with your forefinger to stop liquor flow.
(Figure 9)
5) Insert the nozzle of the white plastic tubular adapter into the reservoir port and allow
adapter to drop into the reservoir opening.
6) Stand inverted bottle upright.
7) Loosen the thumbscrew on the hold-down bracket and slide the hold-down bracket until it
is centered on the bottom of the bottle.
8) Push down on bracket until it firmly holds the bottle in place and tighten the knob.
Note: If you are using partially empty bottles place the emptiest bottle at the end of the
reservoir farthest from the reservoir outlet tubing. This will allow the partially filled bottle to be emptied first.

NOTE: See Addendum 2 photo for location of components
1) Open manual valve located between gas powered alcohol pump and the alcohol electric solenoid with flow
control. This activates the alcohol supply system.
2) Open the manual valve between the gas powered syrup pump and the syrup electric solenoid with flow control.
This activates the syrup supply system.
3) Liquid should fill the lines and the pumps should cycle.
Activating Alcohol and Syrup System
NOTE: The water, syrup, and alcohol ratio are all pre-set at the factory to meet drink quality standards.
Adjustment of these ratios can only be done by authorized service technicians.
A graduated cylinder that holds at least 17 ounces (500ml) is needed to test the BRIX. A measuring cup can be
used if a graduated cylinder is not available.
1) Switch back cabinet control box switch (Figure 10) to "TEST" mode.
2) Switch Freezer control to "CLEAN".
3) Open test output port valve.
NOTE: See Addendum 2 for location of components.
1) Close all manual valves except the water valve.
2) Put test output port tube into the graduated cylinder.
3) Toggle "Sample Timer" switch to "ON".
4) Water will flow into the graduated cylinder for 10 seconds.
5) When water flow stops, measure the water volume in cylinder. The proper
setting is 13.5 oz. (400ml).
6) If the volume is not 13.5 oz (400ml), consult the Troubleshooting Guide in this
manual.
Syrup Ratio Check:
1) Close all manual valves except syrup.
