Hi Guys,
I'm a newbie (to both the forum and planted tanks).
I've been assembling my JBL M602 CO2 Fertiliser today but I'm not getting any pressure. I've attached the pressure regulator to the external thread of the cylinder valve on the refillable 500g tank and closed the adjusting screw on the top. there was no hiss when it was attached but the connecting nut is firmly tightened with the spanner.
Next I have connected the solenoid valve to the mains and heard a click as it opened.
But when I try to open the cyliner valve (towards auf) it only moves a very small amount and the pressure indicators do not move. There is a nut below the knob - do I need to release this with a spanner to get it to open further? Or should it only move a small amount and there is a problem with the connection to the pressure regulator?
Any advice welcomed
Paula
