CO

Regulator (Double Dispense Tower)
Your beer dispenser comes equipped with a 5 pound CO
2
tank and a dual gauge regulator. The lower gauge should
be reading approximately 750 psi (52 bar) when the tank is
properly filled 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 CO
2
you have left
in the tank.
The upper gauge reads the pressure being supplied to the
beer keg. Follow the procedure below to adjust the pres-
sure to 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 (Upper Gauge):
1.
Close the shutoff valves at the bottom of the regulator.
2.
Be sure the faucet handle is closed on the tower (see
Figure 2

3.
Loosen the lock nut by turning

counterclockwise us-
ing the

4.
With the flat bladed screwdriver turn the adjustment
screw
↷
clockwise to increase the pressure or
↶
coun-
terclockwise to decrease the pressure.
5.
Open the shutoff valve on the bottom of the regula-tor.
The gauge reading may drop but will return very
quickly.
