[a] HOW TO MAKE COOLING WATER
IMPORTANT
Carefullyreadthisbeforellingthewatertank.
Electric conductivity (E.C.) of cooling water for water tank
Do not use tap water.
Fillthewatertankwithwaterhaving100-300μS/cmofE.C.
Measure the electric conductivity with conductivity meter.
* E.C. : Physical property to show the ability of conducting electricity.
 Unit:μS(microsiemens)/cm
Below100μS/cm:
Compressor may not work resulting in poor cooling performance.

13
ENGLISH
Above300μS/cm:
Excessive ice may build up on evaporator and freeze beer inside beer coil preventing beer from being dispensed properly.
How to make cooling water with 100-300 μS/cm of E.C.
The capacity of the water tank of this unit is approx. 30 L.
Make the cooling water by dissolving 5 g of pure baking soda in approx. 10 L of distilled water,
andthenaddapprox.27Lofdistilledwatertollthewatertank.
Step 1
Measure 5 g of pure baking soda with nozzle cap (accessory).
Step 2
Fill a bucket with approx. 10 L of distilled water and stir well after adding the 5 g of baking
soda measured in step 1.
Rinse the nozzle cap after use.

1) Remove the top cover.
2) Pour the bucket (approx. 10 L) of cooling water prepared.
3) Fill the water tank up with approx. 27 L of distilled water to the water level line marked inside
the water tank.
4) Use a conductivity meter if measuring the electric conductivity.
5) Close the top cover.
3. CHECKS BEFORE OPERATION (DAILY)
[a] CHECKING CO2 GAS CYLINDER
Open the main valve of the CO2 gas cylinder, and check the gas
pressure by the level gauge of the regulator:
* If the level gauge reading is not more than 3 MPa or falls into the
yellow zone, the cylinder contains little CO2 gas.
* If the level gauge reading is not more than 1 MPa or falls into the
red zone, replace with a new cylinder.
[b] REPLACING CO2 GAS CYLINDER
1) Close the main valve of the CO2 gas cylinder by turning it clockwise.
2) Turn the regulator adjust dial to set the pressure to “0” (MPa).
3) Use the spanner (accessory) to loosen the nut and remove the regulator from the CO2 gas
cylinder.
Note: Be sure to cap the CO2 gas cylinder.
