CHARGE ONLY WITH DRY CARBON DIOXIDE
•Do not charge with carbon dioxide unless the pressure rating stamped on CO2 cylinder is 1800 PSI or greater.
•When charged with carbon dioxide do not exceed a fill density of 68%. (Fill density is a percent ratio of the weight of gas in the cylinder to the weight of water that the cylinder will hold at 60°F).
•If cylinder has been exposed to temperatures in excess of 350°F., it must be destroyed.
Improper use of cylinder couldcause seriousbodily injury or property damage.

a.Your CO2 cylinder is shipped empty to avoid any possible
accident during transportation. When you purchase the first keg of beer, get CO_ cylinder filled by your beer distributor.
b.Follow the procedure on the inside front cover page of "Draught Beer Facts" book for installation of CO2 regulator to CO2 cylinder.
NOTE: Shutoff valve on CO2 cylinder may be different in shape. Do not open shutoff valve until pressure tube, keg tapper and beer keg are connected to CO2 regulator.
c.Connect pressure tube (clear plastic tube) to CO2 reg- ulator at nipple. Secure connection with hose clamp. To do
this, place hose clamp over tube and squeeze both ends of hose clamp so that locking teeth will mate.
d.Place CO2 cylinder at right rear corner inside beer dis- penser cabinet in upright position. Fasten CO2 cylinder with CO2 cylinder retainer (spring) provided. Hook both ends of retainer to holes in cold plate. (See Fig. 2.)
WARNING: To avoid personal injury and/or property dam- age, always secure CO2 cylinder with re- tainer to prevent it from falling. Should CO2 cylinder valve become accidentally damaged or broken off, CO2 cylinder can become an unguided missile.
2.Installing Keg Tapper and Beer Keg.
a.The Sankey type keg tapper supplied with beer dispenser is the most widely used in the United States. However, some other type keg tappers, such as
pean Sankey or
Cold Plate
If you need a keg tapper other than Sankey type, it is rec- ommended to purchase the tapper you need from your beer distributor keeping the Sankey type keg tapper for fu- ture use because the Sankey system is becoming more widely used.
If you wish to have the Sankey type keg tapper exchanged with another type keg tapper, please return collect the
Sankey type keg tapper to the address below specifying the type of keg tapper you need:

b.Make sure shutoff valve on CO2 regulator is in closed posi- tion. Connect pressure tube to nipple of keg tapper (use hose clamp). Connect beer tube from draft arm to keg tap- per (fasten securely with washer and wingnut).
c.Make sure that beer faucet and keg tapper are in closed position, then tap a keg. Open keg tapper valve. (For more detailed procedures for Items B and C, refer to attached leaflet.)
d.Make sure the keg is properly tapped, then open shutoff valve on CO2 regulator. To install beer keg into cabinet fol-
low the steps below (see Fig. 3). | ,- |
•Wet the surface of keg supports (wooden plates)
•Lean keg supports on the front bottom edge of cabinet.
•Place keg on supports supporting keg by hands.
•Push the upper part of keg to stand in upright position then slide keg supports into cabinet.
•Make sure that keg and beer tube do not touch cold plate and that keg and keg supports are properly positioned not to interfere with door dosing.
e.Release air caught in draft arm assembly by opening beer faucet until foam appears. Now dispenser is ready to us.
