Before assembly, make

sure to empty the inside

of the unit including all

shelves and metal keg

floor (# 11). Carefully

lay the unit on its back.

Attach the casters (#12)

into the existing holes at

the bottom of the unit.

The front two casters

require a flat washer

(part# 12) prior to

installation. Next, set

the unit upright and

reinstall the keg floor

(# 11).

Note: Allow the dispenser

to stand in an upright

position for 24 hours

before plugging in the

unit.

Install Caster Wheels Remove Plug

Install Tower Secure Tower

Install Railing

Carefully remove the

tower plug (#17)

located on the top of

the unit by opening the

cabinet, and with your

hand, push plug

through the top of the

cabinet from the inside.

Use flat head screw-

driver as a prying tool if

necessary.

Mount the tower gasket

(#19) by lining it up with

the preexisting holes at

the top of the unit.

Install the tower (#3) by

first unraveling the beer

line from the bottom of

the tower. Feed the beer

line (#13) through the

top opening that was

under the cabinet plug.

Once the beer line is fed into the

unit line up the holes at the

bottom of the tower and install

the four screws (#20).

Take the railing (#4) and

slide its “feet” into the

pilot holes in the top of

the cabinet.

Install Handle & Faucet

Screw the faucet

handle (#1) to the beer

faucet (#2). Line up

the beer faucet to the

tower shank at the

front of the tower (#3)

and tighten the collar.

Note:

This manual is intended as a guide for installation.

While there are many different ways to install this kit, we recommend you follow these instructions.

If you are uncomfortable in your ability to assemble this kit, seek professional assistance.

Attach the CO2regulator (#6) to

the CO2cylinder (#8) by

screwing the regulator nut onto

the cylinder valve and tightening

with pliers.

Note: A fiber washer is normally

required to connect a regulator to

a CO2cylinder, but the standard

regulator provided includes a

built-in o-ring.

Make sure the shut off

valve at the bottom of the

regulator is closed (9

o’clock position). Install

the CO2Tube (#7) to the

hose barb at the bottom of

the regulator (#6) and

secure with a hose clamp

(#16).

Mount the CO2cylinder (#8) onto

the step and inside the cylinder

clip (#9). Secure the tank into

the clip using the long bolt and

nut (#18).

Attach the remaining

end of the CO2tube

(#7) to hose barb on

the side of the coupler

(#10). Secure the tube

with a hose clamp

(#16).

Now connect the beer line

(#13) to the keg coupler

(#10). Insert the neoprene

washer (#15) into the

beer line hex nut (the beer

line is the line coming

from/going to the tower

and faucet). Remove the

blue rubber protective cap

located on top of the keg

coupler and screw the nut

with the rubber washer to

the top of the keg coupler,

hand-tighten firmly.

Connect Regulator to Cylinder Connect Tube to Regulator

Mount CO2Cylinder Attach Tube to Coupler

Connect Beer Line

To connect the keg coupler

(#10) to the keg (#14),

first make sure the black

pull handle of the keg

coupler is in the up position

(45° angle). Insert the keg

coupler into the valve on

top of the keg and turn

clockwise until it stops

about 90° to lock the

coupler into place. Now pull

the tap handle out (away

from the keg coupler (#10)

and push down until it

locks into position. Listen

for the “click” of the pull

handle when it shifts into

the final downward

position. The keg is now

tapped.

supplier prior to use.

13 Calibrating the Regulator

(A) With the shut-off valve on the regulator closed, open the valve on the CO2 cylinder (#8) completely.

(B) With a pair of pliers, loosen adjustment nut allowing adjustment screw to be turned counter-clockwise until adjustment screw is completely open.

(C) Using a flathead screwdriver, slowly turn the regulator adjustment screw clockwise until the desired pressure is shown on the pressure gauge on the top. By turning

the screw clockwise it will increase (+) pressure and counterclockwise will decrease (-) pressure. Under normal circumstances, we recommend setting the regulator at

10-12psi. NOTE: When adjusting pressure from a high pressure to a lower pressure, you will need to release the higher pressure out by pulling the manual pressure

release valve ring located on the side of the coupler.

(D) Once the desired pressure is set, open the shut-off valve by turning the lever down (6 o’clock position or parallel to the CO2 tube). Gas should now be flowing from

the regulator to the keg coupler. You will hear the keg pressurizing. The output needle will drop momentarily while the pressure is equalizing. Then, the needle will

return to the point you set it at.

NOTE: Other conditions, such as altitude, beer type, and temperature may require some adjustment. It is always wise to follow up any adjustment to the regulator
