1. Verify that the control valve on the panel is in the HOLD position then open the nitrogen bottle
valve.

SST
) to the SELF-TEST port located on the control
panel. Hand tighten the fitting. (Do not overtighten.)
3. Turn the control valve to the TEST position.

331-381 mm {13-15 in}
of water.

If the gauge is not reading in this range, adjust the pressure by turning the black knob on the
low pressure regulator at the nitrogen bottle.
5. Turn the control valve to the HOLD position.
6. Verify that the gauge holds pressure and that the flow meter reads no flow.
