Trouble Shooting Guide
- Symptom: Nothing comes out or flow is very slow when tap faucet is opened.
- Cause:
- Empty juice Bag in Box. The pumps will shut off when the juice Bag in Box is empty.
Connect a new Bag in Box. Be sure to fully engage the plunger on the Quick ConnectDisconnect (QCD).
- Low CO² pressure. Open the cabinet door and identify the CO² pressure from the
gauge. The unit is designed to operate at 30 psi, and the pressure gauge was set to 30
psi at the time of installation. Check the pressure at the CO² tank. Replace or recharge
if needed. The CO² supply line leading to the cabinet should be between 60-80 psi.
- The Quick Connect-Disconnect (QCD) to the juice Bag in Box is not tight. Reconnect
the QCD to the Bag in Box. The plunger must be fully depressed.
- Pinched hose. Check for a pinched hose between the cabinet and the tap tower.
- Symptom: The flow is sputtering when the tap faucet is opened.
- Cause:
- Low spirits level. Air in the lines will cause coughing and sputtering at the tap. Check
that there is spirits in the reservoir.
- The juice Bag in Box is almost empty. Check there is juice remaining in the box.
Connect a new box if needed.
- The Quick Connect-Disconnect (QCD) to the juice Bag in Box is not tight. Reconnect
the QCD to the Bag in Box. The plunger must be fully depressed.

- Symptom: The flow is only juice when the tap faucet is opened; no spirits
dispensed.
- Cause:
- The spirits shutoff valve is turned to “Spirit Valve Closed: Clean”. Open the cabinet
door and rotate handle to “Spirit Valve Open: Dispense”.
- The filter in the spirits reservoir is clogged. Clean filter.
- The flow control orifice is clogged. Remove and clean flow control orifice.
- Symptom: The flow is only spirits when the tap faucet is opened; no juice is
dispensed.
- Cause:
- The juice Bag in Box is almost empty. Connect a new Bag in Box.
- The Quick Connect-Disconnect (QCD) to the juice Bag in Box is not tight. Reconnect
the QCD to the Bag in Box. The plunger must be fully depressed.
- Symptom: The pump fails to stop cycling even when the tap faucet is closed.
- Cause:
- There is a leak in the hoses. Check for leaks inside the cabinet and the hose running
from the cabinet to the tap.
- Faulty pump or pump auto-shutoff.
Installation Guide
Site Preparation (See Figure 1)
The installation requires a CO2 supply hose to be within reach of the base cabinet, and it must be
long enough such that the cabinet can be pulled out for installation, cleaning, and maintenance.
The supply line pressure must be regulated such that it operates between 60 – 80 psi. The
supply line can be attached to the unit through a standard ¼“ female quick coupler or a hose can
be attached to a ¼“ barbed fitting and secured with a hose clamp.
The tap tower and base is designed to mount to a table or countertop, which has a flat surface to
clamp to. The countertop thickness cannot exceed 3.75 inches. The unit includes 8 feet of hose
to run from the faucet to the base cabinet. The base cabinet needs to be located such that it is
within reach of the hose, allowing the cabinet to be pulled out for installation, cleaning, and
maintenance.

2. Install the tap tower to the tower base by threading the hose through the access hole, and
bolting the large washer to the base and tower with #8 screws, nuts, and lock washers
(quantity 4).
3. Install the thumb screws to the tower base. Snap the pads to each end of the thumb
screws.

4. Route the hose along the edge of the tower base, which requires threading the hose past
the lateral support on the underside of the tower base.
5. Using the thumb screws, clamp the tap tower and base to the table or countertop, verifying
the hose is not pinched
