on the regulator is in the closed position.
• Pull out and release the pressure release valve
on the coupler to purge any air pressure.
• Make sure the faucet handle is in the closed
position.
• Pull the coupler handle out and downward until
it locks into its open position. The teeth on the
underside of the coupler will bite into the locking
neck of the beer keg.
Note: If a keg is very tall, it may be necessary to
connect the coupler to the keg before inserting the
keg into the keg cooler.

• Notice the needle on the regulator gauge start to climb.

ADJUSTING THE CO

The gauge monitors internal keg pressure and should be
adjusted to read between 8-12 PSI. The pressure can be
adjusted as needed. After making any adjustment to the PSI,
wait 5 - 10 minutes before attempting to pour another beer
to allow the pressure to equalize.
• If the beer is very foamy, try turning the pressure down.
• If the fl ow of beer is very weak, try turning the pressure
up.
1. Loosen the lock nut.
2. Turn the adjustment screw with a fl at screwdriver.
• To increase pressure, turn screw clockwise.
• To decrease pressure, turn screw counter-clockwise.
3. Allow several minutes for the keg to properly pressurize
before adjusting the pressure further. The regulator
gauge may drop while this happens.
4. Retighten the lock nut to ensure the pressure does not get
adjusted accidentally.
Note: Listen for hissing along all connections to identify if
there are any leaks.
