If someone can advise me as to how to adjust this pressurestat, I'd greatly appreciate it. The machine as I got it is at about 1.7 bar.



So any advice as to what screw to turn, what direction and in what increments (half turn etc.) would be great. Specifically, I assume I have to turn the big nut that goes around the plunger pin that goes into that electric switch, right? Or is it a lock nut and I turn that little protrusion?

The machine was used as a display in Victoria Pastry in San Francisco.

Thanks,

Just a guess, I'd turn the nut counter clockwise.
If the nut compresses a spring that the pin pushes against, you'd want it to be looser.

because of the positioning and curve of the pipe there is a good possibility that "sediment" will seat in the curve and still disturb the functioning of the Pstat

I'd check that out too...

That did the trick. I had to turn it about one turn to get it to .9. It took just 5 minutes. I'll try it tomorrow am.

By the way, my rubber base is not attached with a screw; it come off easily.

Thanks,
