4. ການຕິດຕັ້ງແລະການຕິດຕັ້ງ
The Nukatap Flow Control Faucet is designed for single-hole mounting, typically on a draft tower or keezer shank.
- ການກະກຽມດ້ານການຕິດຕັ້ງ: Ensure the mounting hole is clean and appropriately sized for your faucet shank.
- Attach Shank (if separate): If your setup uses a separate shank, thread it through the mounting hole from the inside of the tower/keezer. Secure it with a washer and shank nut on the outside, ensuring a tight seal.
- Connect Faucet to Shank: Thread the faucet onto the shank. Hand-tighten first, then use a faucet wrench to gently tighten until secure. Do not overtighten.
- Install Faucet Handle: Insert the faucet handle into the top of the faucet body and secure it with the handle nut.
- Attach Beverage Line: Connect your beverage line to the rear of the shank (inside the tower/keezer). Ensure a leak-free connection.

5. ຄໍາແນະນໍາການດໍາເນີນງານ
The Nukatap Flow Control Faucet allows for precise adjustment of beverage flow.
- ກ໊ອກນ້ຳເປີດ: Pull the faucet handle forward to open the faucet and begin pouring.
- ປັບອັດຕາການໄຫຼ: Use the small lever on the side of the faucet body to adjust the flow rate. Moving the lever towards the front of the faucet increases flow, while moving it towards the rear decreases flow. This feature is useful for managing different carbonation levels or filling various container sizes without adjusting regulator pressure.
- Close Faucet: Push the faucet handle back to the upright position to close the faucet. The forward-sealing design ensures a clean shut-off.

- ການລະບາຍສີ: Inspect O-rings and seals. If they appear dry or worn, replace them and apply a food-grade lubricant to ensure smooth operation and prevent leaks.
- ການເກັບຮັກສາ: If storing the faucet for an extended period, ensure it is clean and dry to prevent mold or bacterial growth.
