Set-up Information: 

When installing quick disconnect fitting, apply an anaerobic sealant which will harden overnight without the presence of air. Cross tighten lid wing nuts with a 12″ adjustable wrench to insure the lid seal is holding pressure. It is hard to provide a pot with reliefs, regulator, and ball valves without some minor air leak. To compensate for a minor air leak, keep your compressed air supply hooked up to pot during your casting process.
