Follow these instructions when replacing an empty CO
2
cylinder:
1. Always turn off the gas pressure by closing cylinder valve
“A”.
2. Remove the regulator from the empty cylinder at “B”.
3. Remove the dust cap from the new cylinder at “B” and clear
dust from the new cylinder outlet by quickly opening and
closing valve “A”. NOTE: This is the only time a CO
2
cyl-
inder should be opened without a regulator attached.
4. With the new cylinder valve “A” closed, attach the regulator
to the cylinder at “B”. A fiber or plastic washer is required to
couple the regulator and cylinder, unless the regulator includes
a built-in O-ring.
5. Open valve “A” all the way and ensure that the regulator is
sealed properly.
The pressure setting on the gauge is determined by the original
beer system installer. The regulator should remain at this set-
ting, so no adjustment to the regulator is required.
Your Glastender remote beer dispensing system has primary and secondary CO
2
regulators with built-in pressure relief
valves to protect against excessive pressure build-up.
WARNING: CO
2
cylinders contain high-pressure compressed gas which can be hazardous if not handled properly.
Please read and understand the following procedures before handling any CO
2
cylinders.
1. ALWAYS connect the CO
2
cylinder to a regulator.
2. NEVER connect the CO
2
cylinder directly to a product container or keg.
3. ALWAYS follow the proper procedures outlined above when replacing an empty CO
2
cylinder.
4. ALWAYS keep a CO
2
cylinder away from heat. CO
2
cylinders should be stored in a cool place, preferably 70°F.
5. ALWAYS store CO
2
cylinders in an upright position and secure them with a chain or safety strap. This includes CO
2
cylinders that are empty or not in use.
6. ALWAYS keep CO
2
cylinders in a well-ventilated area and leave the area immediately if a leakage has occurred.
7. NEVER drop or throw a CO
2
cylinder.
8. ALWAYS check the D.O.T. test date on the cylinder neck before using. If over five (5) years, do not use, return the
cylinder to the gas supplier.
