INSTALLATION (continued)
5
NOTE: This equipment must be 
installed to comply with 
applicable federal, state and 
local plumbing codes and 
ordinances. 
 
 
WARNING ELECTRIC 
SHOCK HAZARD: 
 
Brewer must be properly 
grounded to prevent possible 
shock hazard. DO NOT 
assume a plumbing line will 
provide such a ground. 
Electrical shock will cause death 
or serious injury. 
 
 
IMPORTANT: 
Supply power must match 
nameplate for voltage and 
phase. Connecting to the 
wrong voltage will damage the 
brewer or result in decreased 
performance. Such damage is 
not covered by warranty. 
 
IMPORTANT: Do not connect 
brewer to electrical power until 
you are ready to fill the tank. 
See instructions at left. 
 
IMPORTANT: The ground 
prong of the plug is part of a 
system designed to protect you 
from electrical shock in the 
event of internal damage. 
Never cut off the ground prong 
nor twist a blade to fit an exist-
ing receptacle. Contact a li-
censed electrician to install the 
proper circuit and receptacle. 
NSF requires that the brewer be able to be moved for cleaning 
underneath. A flex line or loops of copper tubing will satisfy this 
requirement. See Figure 2 below. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
ELECTRICIAN’S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 
 
REFER TO ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS - Page 1 
Check the nameplate to determine correct electrical service 
required for the Brewer to be installed. 
 
IMPORTANT: Before connecting to electricity, make sure 
automatic brewers are connected to the water supply. 
 
Models 8742 and 8748 are equipped with a cord and plug. 
They require a 115 - 125 volt 20 amp circuit (50/60 Hz, 2 wire 
plus ground, with NEMA 5-15R or 5-20R Receptacle).
