Thanks everyone I'll try to get the base off first. Seems like the attachment to the boiler is next to impossible to remove

Hi everyone I have acquired a faemina with a bent shaft. Base seems OK. Likely bent from ship or dropping I suspect. Is the shaft held in by a small screw at the base and one at the top of the boiler and just press fit? Reading on here, the shaft is near impossible to remove

thanks for the clarification do you know if this model pump has 3 spring valves like I pictured? I'm questioning myself if it was 2 or 3 spring valves because I had more than 1 pump apart on the bench and may have mixed things up

Hi Thanks for the reply For some reason I am able to get the middle spring back in properly. I wonder if I've mixed up the plungers or something! doh

I have a Breville 920xl dual boiler that no longer pumps water from the reservoir I took the pump out to bench test but no water came out Can anyone tell me if this is the way the pump is suppose to be assembled? There is also a black o ring that I'm not sure where it goes

Thanks for confirming it's normal for the nozzle to react that way. Yes, I am beginning to suspect it may be a demo, I don't get how the feet can be *that* damaged from bench testing alone and the rust/oxidation around the drip tray. The portafilter heads and baskets are blemished too. The packaging...

Hi I just received my pro 700 with flow control from a reputable dealer. It has a rotary pump, but I am using the water tank. 1. Just wanting to confirm that this is normal behaviour, as the steam boiler heat ups, the discharge nozzle starts dripping and eventually sputters some water/steam before s...

Hi Does any one know if the ulka nme pump can be disassembled like the larger ep5 pump? It's the smaller of the two and I think used for filling the boiler I took the nme pump out to fix another another problem but when I put it back together, the pump doesn't produce suction any more! I

Hi I checked again, and the blue wire to VDR1 reads zero volts (only the brown to VDR1 has the 115V readings, or brown to all the other wires that I previously posted on). As helpful as all the suggestions are, I think this troubleshooting is beyond my capabilities/knowledge. We tried finding a loca...

Hi I think you're right about the blue wire. I took a close up of the blue wire disconnected from the pin, do the traces indicate to you that there should be a connection between the blue wire to VDR1 (blue circle) and the yellow wire? When I tested it for continuity between these points, it was
