Adjusting Brew Actuator Tension - Universal


Adjusting Tension of Slayer Brew Actuators


Time:
<5 minutes

Tools:
Flathead screwdriver
#6 hex key

Procedure 
Step 1:
Remove lock screw.


Step 2:
Insert hex key and adjust tension. Clockwise is tight, counter-clockwise is loose. Be careful not to loosen too much, as this could cause the assembly to come apart. Compare the tension to the other groups. 


If the assembly has come loose, or the tension nut spins freely, Refer to this guide.

Step 3:
Once you have the preferred tension set on all groups, insert the lock screw and tighten. Be sure to tighten the lock screw well, as this keeps the tension screw from moving.
