5.2 Pressure Control
Step 1:
Set Regulator Pressures
To adjust pressure, pull up on the air regulator caps so that the
orange band is showing. Turn clockwise [right] to increase
pressure, and counterclockwise [left] to decrease pressure.
Note:
When decreasing pressure, it is important to go well below the
set point and then increase pressure to your desired set point. If this
is not performed as described, the pressure will drop as soon as air
begins to flow through the regulator. You may then increase the
pressure to your set point and it will stay steady.
Recommended Regulator Settings
Pikes Peak
A:
10 PSI,
B:
120 PSI
Longs Peak
A:
20 PSI,
B:
140 PSI
Step 2:
Using the Toggle Switch
The press will draw pressure from whichever regulator the toggle is
positioned towards, and will hold pressure (air is trapped in the
cylinder and applies a consistent pressing force) in the HOLD
position (middle).
To increase pressure slowly, move the toggle to the middle position
and then “bump” it to the right for approximately 1-2 seconds, and
then return to the HOLD position. Repeat 2-3 times until you achieve
the desired maximum pressure.
Note:
We recommend
doing a few dry runs
using the Dual Pressure
system to get a hang of
it before you do your
first press.
