CO2 Regulator
Your beer dispenser comes equipped with a 5 pound CO2
tank and a dual gauge regulator. The lower gauge should
be reading approximately 750 psi (52 bar) when the tank is
properly lled and the tank is not in the refrigerator (at room
temperature). The tank will read less when chilled. Use this
lower gauge as an indicator of how much CO2 you have left
in the tank.
The upper gauge reads the pressure being supplied to the
beer keg. This should be about 12 - 14 psi (0.8 to 1 bar) for
lager beer or 9 - 12 psi (0.6 to 0.8 bar) for ale's.
To adjust the pressure:
1. Close the shutoff valve at the bottom of the regulator.
2. Loosen the lock nut by turning ↶ counterclockwise
using the
1
⁄2" open end wrench until loose, this will allow
adjustment of the pressure adjustment screw.
3. Turn the adjustment screw ↷ clockwise to increase the
pressure or ↶ counterclockwise to decrease the pres-
sure.
4. Open the shutoff valve on the bottom of the regula-
tor. The gauge reading may drop but will return very
quickly.
5. Pull the ring on the keg coupler to allow the gas to ow
momentarily.
6. Make any ne adjustments if necessary with the adjust-
ment screw.
7. Tighten the locknut with the
1
⁄2" open end wrench by
turning clockwise ↷.
