CO2 issues?

[ddonnelly@kc.rr.com]

I just set up my Danby. Before I take it back, I want to make certain that I set it up correctly.
I tapped the beer (like normal). I hooked up the red hose from the full CO2 tank to the male part on the keg tap. (As instructed).
When I turn on the CO2, it shows that I have CO2 in the tank , but the PSI gauge doesn't move.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Have you tried turning the screw on the regulator that adjusts the CO2 output level?

Forgive my newness to this. But there are two screws.
One is an actual screw that a screwdriver is inserted into.
The other is a twist screw that looks like it opens up the pathway from the gas to the regulators. That one does nothing when I turn it.

There should be only one valve on the tank that should be open to allow gas to the regulator, if there is any other valves between the tank and regulator, they should be open. That should bring your high pressure guage up (if there is gas in your tank). There is a screw that comes out the front of the actual regulator for adjusting pressure to the keg. Turn this screw clockwise to increase pressure, and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure. There may be a jam-nut on the adjusting screw for locking it down when you get your desired pressure.

ddonnelly,

we're talking about the screw shown here in part #4.

Once the tank valve is open, adjust this screw to set the pressure.
