Installing the CO2 Regulator and CO2 Cylinder
•
Install the CO2 gas line tube to the regulator by attaching one end of the red tube to
the hose barb connection on the CO2 regulator. Secure the tube by using one of the
two self-locking black plastic snap-on clamps. Use pliers (not supplied) to snap the
clamp on tightly to ensure that there are no leaks.
•
Insert a special washer (provided with the kit) into the regulator to the cylinder
attachment nut.
•
Attach the CO2 regulator to the CO2 cylinder by
screwing the regulator nut onto the cylinder valve
and tightening with an adjustable wrench.
•
Remove the bolt with the nut from the cylinder
retainer. Using two screws attach it inside the unit
on the left side of the back wall. (Holes are pre-
drilled and screws are included)
•
Slide the cylinder through the retainer and secure it
with the bolt and the nut. Position the cylinder in a
way that you would be able to read the numbers on
the gauges and easily access shut-off valves.
WARNING: CO
2
gas can be dangerous;
CO
2
cylinders contain high-pressure compressed
gas which can be hazardous if not handled properly. Make sure you READ and
UNDERSTAND the following procedures for CO
2
cylinders BEFORE INSTALLATION.
1.
ALWAYS connect the CO
2
cylinder to a regulator. Failure to do so could result in
explosion with possible death or injury when the cylinder valve is opened.
2.
NEVER connect the CO
2
cylinder directly to the product container.
3.
ALWAYS follow correct procedures when cylinders are changed.
4.
ALWAYS secure the cylinder in an upright position.
5.
NEVER drop or throw a CO
2
cylinder.
6.
ALWAYS keep a CO
2
cylinder away from heat. Store extra cylinders in a cool place
(preferably 70°F). Securely fasten with a chain in an upright position when storing.
7.
ALWAYS ventilate and leave the area immediately if CO
2
leakage has occurred.
8.
ALWAYS check the D.O.T. test date on the cylinder neck before installation. If over
five (5) years, do not use, return cylinder to gas supplier.
9.
NEVER connect a product container unless there are two (2) safety’s in the
pressure system:
a.
One at or on the CO
2
regulator
b.
One at or on the product coupler or in the pressure gas line.
