There are a few components which can be contributing to the leaking. There are two o-rings, listed as parts 2, 6, and 7 on this page of the diagram. There is also a valve assembly shown as part 9 on the same page.
| |
| − | #*#'''To access these parts,''' use an open ended wrench or adjustable wrench to remove the smaller top bolt of the E-61. This will give you access to the first o-ring and spring assembly.
| |
| − | #*#'''To access further down into this part of the grouphead use a wrench to remove the large bolt.''' This will let you access the other o-ring, another spring assembly, and the other valve assembly.

| |
| − | |E61_attach_instr = There are two possible reasons for the machine to be leaking from here.
| |
| − | ##'''The first is that one of the plumb lines connected to the back of the E-61 is not secure resulting in a leak.''' This will need to be tightened from the inside of the machine. You may see leaking from the bottom of the machine as well if this is the case. Remove the top of the machine and look towards the front of the machine. These lines will be located on the back of the faceplate, opposite to where the grouphead is seated. They are listed as parts 6 and 21 on p.8 of the machine's parts diagram. Use an open ended wrench or adjustable wrench to tighten these down. If the leaking persists you may need to apply white teflon plumbers tape or a sealing compound such as food safe permabond.
| |
| − | ##'''The other possibility is that the E-61 group chassis gasket is not sealing tightly, or is worn out or damaged and will need to be replaced.''' The chassis gasket is listed as part 10 on p.6 of the parts diagram. There are two bolts which secure the E-61 to the machine chassis, causing it to press on the gasket and create a seal. The bolt assemblies are located behind the grouphead on the inside of the machine. Try tightening these two bolts down; if tightening these bolts does not resolve the leak, then the chassis gasket will need to be replaced.

| − | # '''If the machine is being used on a GFI outlet,''' try moving it to a non-GFI outlet for testing. GFI outlets will sometimes trip because of current fluctuation, especially with high power appliances such as an espresso machine. Click here for more detailed information on GFI function. The article mentions that GFI's are setup to detect small fluctuations in current, in order to prevent electrocution. The GFI is not able to determine the cause of these fluctuations. Common causes are:
| + | |
| − | #: The outlet has been exposed to moisture, dust, or debris, which is causing the outlet not to ground properly. This will result in a current fluctuation and the GFI will trip. If the GFI outlet is located on the outside wall of a house moisture caused by high humidity, rain, or other weather can also contribute to these fluctuations.
| + | |
| − | #* '''The GFI is old, damaged, or broken.''' GFIs contain mechanical parts which can wear out over time or break from misuse.
| + | |
| − | #* '''The appliance being plugged into the outlet is fluctuating in current.''' Some appliances have motors, pumps, sensors, etc. that cause current fluctuations as a part of their normal operation. Espresso machines have both pumps and heating elements which can be on for extended periods of time. It is normal for these parts to have slight current fluctuations during operation. Most GFIs are set to trip after a 4-6 mA fluctuation, which some espresso machines will exceed during operation. This is not because of a ground fault, but because of normal current fluctuations the machine produces.
| + | |
| − | #* '''In some cases the GFI will need to be replaced.''' The GFI may be installed incorrectly causing it to trip, or there may be a ground fault elsewhere on the circuit. Have an electrician examine the GFI and the circuit it is connected to.
