Chapter 3 Key Features 1. When the power switch at the rear of the machine is in the “Off” position, the graphics will be the standard black and white Jägermeister Logo, but once the power switch is in the “On” position, machine comes to life with the internal display lighting. The machine will change colors to the dramatic “Jägermeister Orange” logo. 2. Another key feature is the digital indicator in the upper right corner of the machine.
Chapter 4 Locating Key Components on Your Tap Machine Locate the Machine Serial Number The serial number tag is located on the rear of the machine next to the fuse. The serial number is also located on the front page of this manual. Other Components On/Off and Fuse The On/Off switch enables/disables both the LED lighting and refrigeration system. Fuse is user replaceable as necessary.
A) Removable-Reusable Filter Assembly The filter must be kept clean to allow for proper ventilation. If the filter is clogged the machine will not be able to effectively cool the Jägermeister. If you notice the machine has gotten warmer over time, this is by far the most likely cause. The filter can be vacuumed or cleaned under warm water. If you use water to clean the filter it should be allowed to dry completely before using the machine.
Chapter 5 JEM Setup and Operation General: The Model JEM Jägermeister Tap Machine® is a unique display, refrigeration and delivery system designed to chill and dispense Jägermeister Herbal Liqueur at temperatures well below freezing - 0º F (-18º C). WARNING DO NOT introduce water or other fluids with a freezing temperature above -15ºF while the On/Off switch is in the ON position. Failure to do so may result in the unit freezing causing internal damage.
Placing the Machine on the Bar: A level surface with a MINIMUM of 1 inches of clear space at the rear of the unit and 1 inch MINIMUM on both sides is required to permit adequate airflow for the refrigeration system. An additional 5 inches at the front of the machine is necessary for the drip tray/filter access that is provided with the unit. DO NOT REMOVE THE LEGS FROM THE MACHINE.
Bottle Stopper Insertion and Removal IMPORTANT NOTICE: WHEN REPLACING EMPTY BOTTLES - DO NOT DISCARD OR THROW THE BOTTLE STOPPERS AWAY. THE BOTTLE STOPPERS ARE TO BE REUSED AND ARE NOT DISPOSABLE! Model JEMUS bottle stoppers are screw on style. This stopper used in conjunction with the Model JEMUS bottle well assembly supports up to 1 liter bottles without the use of a bottle cage. Do not use these stoppers in older model Jägermeister Tap Machines. DO NOT DISCARD OR THROW THE BOTTLE STOPPERS AWAY.
Step 4 Figure 12- In Place Slowly insert the bottle stopper into the hole of the bottle well. Push down slightly and allow the bottle to rest inside the bottle well. The weight of the bottle will keep the bottle securely in the bottle well. If the bottle is slightly turned, you can turn the bottle up to 1/8 turn to line up with the front of the machine. Repeat for All Bottles.
Chapter 6 1. Plug It In, Turn It On, And Load It! Unsnap the 3 protective dust caps from the bottle well assembly located on the top of the dispenser. These caps should not be removed and should be snapped in place when a well space is not being used. IF THIS IS THE FIRST USE FOR THE MACHINE, REMOVE ANY ABSORBANT MATERIALS IN EACH WELL. ALSO REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE CAP ON THE OUTPUT OF THE FAUCET 2. Plug in the power cord of the machine into a 115VAC, 60 Hz.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION IF THE FLOW FROM THE BOTTLES DOES NOT STOP AFTER A FEW SECONDS (the bubbles continue and you may notice Jägermeister flowing all over your counter) - DO NOT CONTINUE ANY FURTHER. REMOVE THE BOTTLES AND CALL OUR SERVICE CENTER AT 1-800-713-8881. When product is dispensed, it is normal for bubbles to continue in the bottle(s) for a few seconds after you close the tap handle.
Chapter 7 Keeping Your Tap Machine® Clean WARNING THE POWER SWITCH MUST BE TURNED "OFF" DURING CLEANING. Figure 14 - Rear View FAILURE TO TURN THE POWER SWITCH "OFF" MAY RESULT IN INTERNAL DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. Your Jägermeister Tap Machine® REQUIRES simple, regular cleaning to function properly. Bottle Stoppers When replacing empty bottles, wash each bottle stopper in warm water before using a new bottle.
Monthly On a Monthly basis clean the machine as follows: 1. Turn off the power switch at the rear of the machine. 2. Remove the bottles from the top of the unit. 3. Open the faucet and drain all remaining Jägermeister from the system. 4. With the faucet opened, pour approximately one liter of warm water into the bottle well at the top of the machine and flush the water through the machine until it is empty again. Close the faucet once all of the water has drained. 5.
Chapter 8 Let's Talk About Temperature Jägermeister - The Big Chill Warms Once a shot of Jägermeister is dispensed into a glass or other container, IT BEGINS TO WARM UP IMMEDIATELY. Depending on the temperature of the glass and the room, Jägermeister can warm up 20º F within seconds. Keep This In Mind Each person's perception of "Colder-Than-Ice" Jägermeister is extremely subjective and can only be verified by proper temperature testing of the Jägermeister as it is dispensed from the Tap Machine.
Chapter 9 When Problems Arise Most problems can be prevented by simple weekly and monthly maintenance described in "Keeping Your Jägermeister Machine Clean." The Jägermeister Tap Machine® is very reliable, however every now and again something can go wrong. Most problems are easily corrected without sending your tap to Tap Machine Inc. for repairs.
