keg checker

 The Keg checker should be used on a good level floor surface but in locations where this is not possible, or too inconvenient to avoid a sloping floor, endeavour to operate so that the Kegcheck is pulled up the slope. Always look to see that both the cellar floor and the keg's bottom rim are undamaged in the area immediately below the Keg checker where the keg will be supported when it is tilted. A piece of flat hard material should be placed here if there is absolutely no good floor surface available. Make very sure that the keg is not stuck to the floor with dried beer, detergent etc.

How it works>>

1. Position Keg checker as shown in the diagram

2. SLOWLY pull the handle horizontally (as illustrated) towards you until the far side of the keg is clear of the ground. Still moving slowly, gently ease the keg back to the floor. Whilst easingthe keg back and before it actually touches the floor, the correct amount of the contents will be shown by the pointeron the scale.

It is very important that:-
a) The handle is moved slowly without snatching as sudden movement can temporarily show a misleading reading and/or the keg may become out of control.
