INSTALLING THE COUPLER/REGULATOR

Attach the side spout of the regulator to your CO2 tank. Tighten with wrench.

Attach the loose end of the Tap Tower hose line to the top spout of the coupler and secure 

with a hose clamp. Using the CO2 Hose, attach one end of hose to the bottom output of the 

regulator and secure with a hose clamp. Use the third clamp to connect the other end of the 

hose to the side output of the coupler. 

Use the screw in the center of the regulator to adjust the output pressure. 

When the desired pressure is reached spin the nut to lock in place. 

When the pressure is at the appropriate level, use the tank band 

to fix the CO2 tank to the inside of the kegorator. 

The Regulator works the CO2 Tank and measures PSI (pounds per square inch), as well as 

the volume of the CO2 gas in the cylinder. Set output pressure gauge between 8-12 PSI.

1. 

Close the shut off valve on the regulator, and open the CO2 tank valve completely. 

2. 

If needed, twist the locking nut loose so that the screw can be adjusted. Unlock screw using 

a screwdriver or by hand. Slowly turn the regulator adjustment screw until the desired 

pressure is shown on the output pressure gauge (8-12 PSI). Turning clockwise will increase 

the output pressure, and turning counter-clockwise will decrease the output pressure. 

3. 

Once desired pressure is reached, re-lock the nut with a wrench or by hand.

4. 

Open the CO2 shut-off valve on the regulator to allow gas flow from the regulator to the 

keg coupler. You will hear the keg pressurizing. The output needle will drop momentarily 

until the pressure has equalized. Then the needle will return to the point you set it at.

5. 

The keg coupler is designed with a pressure relief valve (PRV). Pull the ring on the 

PRV briefly to allow gas to vent. This will permit gas to flow through the regulator 

and help obtain a more accurate reading on the output pressure gauge.

6. 

Re-check the output pressure on the regulator, and if necessary re-adjust using step #2 until 

the desired pressure is shown. It is always wise to follow up any adjustment to the regulator 

with a brief pull of the PRV ring to ensure an accurate output reading. 

 

Location of Temperature Control

The temperature control is located in the upper right-

hand corner in the front of the  kegorator

.

Settings are min, normal, max and super cold.
