Nitro Duck x-stream adjustment :]

[Nickyboy]

I picked up one of these 2nd hand a while ago and only have needed to change the output today. I can't seem to work out what I need to twist/do to alter the pressure. It's stuck on around 800 atm, need to get it to 400.

It's gassed up at the moment, stuck to a bottle.

a pre cheers for any help.

Dude, it's a preset, as far as I know you can't adjust, hence the term "preset"

 

[Nickyboy]

maybe, it's looks like this though.

Any ideas anyone? It's a HP reg, I wanna get it to 400.

 

[bulgy-snatch]

its a Preset so it is set to 800 if you want it to be 400 then you need to get a new preset for it.

why do you want to set it to 400?

 

[Parksy]

It should have came with a spanner. You see the brass hexagonal shaped collar (with rounded holes in it) that turns back and forth to raise/lower the output pressure.

It is easily turned if the bottle is empty, you will need a spanner/adjustable though to move it while gassed up

EDIT: BTW that is a Nitroduck Xtreme not a preset

Thats not a preset, thats adjustable. You need to turn the steel, hex-nut looking piece in between the dark bit that screws into the gun and the silver bit that your guages and fill nipple are screwed into. Without air in the tank you can do it my hand (but you wont know when you reach 400) but with air in the tank you can use the special spanner that should have come with it or just a big adjustable spanner. The one that comes with it uses those circular indents for leverage.

EDIT- Doh! Parksy beat me to it.

Thanks Parksy


If were talking about the one on the side.....that was one of the first things I tried, but when I turned it gas just pissed out of it, and the operating pressure didn't change.

At that point I decided to quickly screw it back on as a bolt with a half undone thread pointing my way resembled death in my eyes :]

Is it just bleeding it, cos I just ried again and I had those visions again.

 

[Nickyboy]

the visions were there for a reason :] I'll unscrew the other bit

Apoligies for the confusion on what reg it was, I had no idea.

Cheers guys

I think your talking about the burst disk mate!! Not a good idea to unscrew that EVER!!

Click on 'Customer first support' at the top of the page

Then on 'xstream regulator directions' about half way down the page...

Look there for directions

Nicky there is a nut/collar with holes in it (where your G spanner should go) - turn it anti clockwise to decrease your pressure - give it time for some reason it take a moment for the guage to move down or up

And for petes sake dont touch your burst disk...lol
