replaced.
CHARGE ONLY WITH DRY CARBON DIOXIDE
• Do not charge with carbon dioxide unless the pressure
rating stamped on COj 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°R, it must be destroyed.

a. Your C02 cylinder is shipped empty to avoid any possible
accident during transportation. When you purchase the
first keg of beer, get CO
2 cylinder filled by your beer
distributor.
b. Follow the procedure on the inside front cover page of
“Draught Beer Facts" book for installation of CO 2 regulator
to CO 2 cylinder.
NOTE: Shutoff valve on CO 2 cylinder may be different in
shape. Do not open shutoff valve until pressure
tube, keg tapper and beer keg are connected to
COj regulator.
c. Connect pressure tube (clear plastic tube) to CO^ 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 COj cylinder at right rear corner inside beer dis­
penser cabinet in upright position. Fasten CO 2 cylinder
with COj 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 COj cylinder with re­
tainer to prevent it from falling. Should CO
2
cylinder valve become accidentally damaged
or broken off, C
02 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 Golden-Gate, Euro­
pean Sankey or Hoff-Stevens are still being used. Before
installing keg tapper, check with your beer distributor to
make sure that the Sankey type keg tapper can be used.
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:
Sanyo E & E Corp.
