Your unit uses a nitrogen or argon cylinder (not included) located remotely and connected to your unit by
an 8-foot long braided hose that has a metal quick disconnect fitting on the end. This hose exits the rear
of the unit at the bottom next to the power cords.
Operating Your Unit
Changing bottles
1. Pinch off the nitrogen clamp.
2. Loosen the thumbwheel.
3. Remove the empty bottle, replace with full bottle.
4. Follow steps 1-7 listed in “Setting Up Your Unit”.
Changing gas cylinder
1. Turn cylinder valve to the off position (clockwise)
and disconnect the supply hose from the regulator
by depressing the small metal lever. Your system
will remain pressurized.
2. Depress the tip of the quick-connect fitting on the
regulator, relieving the pressure in the regulator, so
that you may loosen the hand nut. Replace the
cylinder and attach the regulator, hand tighten the
regulator nut onto the new full cylinder and open
the cylinder valve. A full aluminum cylinder will
read 1800 lbs., a steel cylinder will read 2200 lbs.
3. Depress the tip of the quick-connect fitting on the
regulator for two seconds to displace air from the regulator.
4. Reconnect the supply hose to the regulator.
Your system is now ready for use. There is no need to bleed the system, as the supply hose quick-connect
has a shut off valve which holds gas pressure to the wine bottles during the cylinder change out.
