Hi
I have a keg land inline regulator cut line and added. Correct direction.

The gauge does not seem to move. If I take Grey disconnect off and test there is gas coming out. I want to set or get to about 8 or 10 psi, for pouring - what ever correct PSI is.

What am I doing wrong. It is 0-60 gauge.

There is not a lot of info how they should work.

Put it on kegs at different psi s .... pumped up gas in one. Nothing moving?


I know this might be obvious to people who have used.

but do you set the gauge at the psi you want but removing cover and moving.
My impression it would say what the pressure is then adjust the knob?
There was a spring, I assume that when in with the knob... but no instructions.
Watched kegland video, not a lot of info.
I set at psi and the keg is just over filling... no idea what is going on.
Thanks

Thanks - that is a bit better, but I have set up on corny keg...

gauge is just not moving... even if pressure is high in keg or from 1st reg. , something should be moving ??

edit ...just put on coke bottle with carbonation cap, bottle squashed flat, turn on gas and then turn tap, bottle fills up with gas...gauge still dead...
does not move...

surely something will move, or tell me pressure in bottle...something...

If the keg has pressure in it. This may be more than the regulated pressure.

Vent some gas out of the keg and then see if the gas moves the gauge.
 
urggh my luck buying something broken..

I vented most of the gas out of the keg...

connected gas on turned on..

then turned yellow knob and can hear gas going into keg - gauge does not move..

did the same on empty bottle with carb cap,

same - gauge 0


such a simple thing I can't see how it does not work..

Is there something you should do on set up.. like release a pin. or something...F All instructions anywhere...

Put gas connect on crushed coke bottle...
Slowly turned the yellow tap and bottle starts to fill but not completely uncrushed, turn more then is hard...
I can hear gas going in...
Regulate is working...but...
Gauge never did a thing, surely it would ?

Gauge must be stuffed..??

thanks
