It is distinguished from Europiccola for many details, including the main:


	boiler cap longer and made of two pieces fastened by a screw	shape of heating element

	group fixed to the boiler with 4 bolts	heating element fxed to the boiler with 6 bolts

	shape and dimensions of the boiler	shape of the switch

The base is slightly longer and the drip tray is more square shaped

The group is identical in components to Europiccola 60s and the shower plate is fixed in the brass sleeve

The machine can be dismounted more easily than a Europiccola '60s, thanks to the group and resistance removable fixed with 6 bolts

Can be used all gaskets for Europiccola, unless the seal for heating element and the seal between the group and boiler, easily found in a hardware store

The machine was purchased in France, thanks to a remarkable view of Lucio and the brokering of Francois. It is in excellent condition and has been used very little.

The base and the lever was repainted in blue by hand by previous owner and during transport had missing several points

so i operated with much patience, removing the old paint, sanding, rust converter, rustproof finish and hammered

and at last i restored the original color.
