4. Principle of Operation
 Attach gauge or 1/8” plug to gauge port.
 Connect air supply to “In” port. Connect regulated air to “Out” port. Output air pressure from the filter regulator will
supply connected equipment when connected.
 After all connections are made, use “Adjust Screw” to adjust to the desired air pressure. Turn clockwise to increase
the air pressure. Turn counter-clockwise to decrease the air pressure.
 When output air pressure is at the desired value, tighten the “Locking Nut” to hold the position of the “Adjust Screw” to
maintain adjusted air pressure.
- Supplying air with a lot of moisture and oil may cause equipment to fail. It may be necessary to open the
“Drain Plug” to discharge the moisture and oil occasionally.
- Make sure input and output connections are correct. Reversing the connection may cause air to exit the
“Spring Case” and cause the filter regulator to work improperly.
