BEER KEG SETUP 

 
 
Installation Of the Keg Coupler 

 

Insert the keg coupler provided into the locking 
neck of the beer keg and turn it clockwise to lock 

into position, making sure the keg coupler is in the 
closed position. (See Figure 3)

 Air Line Hose 

 

Attach the end of the red hose to the hose connection on the keg coupler. Secure hose 
by using the connector and make sure there are no leaks. 

 
Installation of Protective Metal Plate  

 

This plate should always be installed when the keg is in place to protect against 
unnecessary damage to the floor of the cabinet liner.  

 

Installation of the Beer Keg 

 

Position the beer keg directly in front of the open door. Using keg handles only, 

carefully lift the beer keg. (See Figure 4) 

 

To place the beer keg inside the cabinet, brace your knees behind the beer keg. Lift 
the front of the keg just enough so the front edge of the keg is resting on the front 

edge of the Beer Dispenser bottom cabinet. (See Figure 5) 

 

Grasp the keg handles and slide it all the way into the cabinet.
