CYLINDER GASKET TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPLACEMENT
The rubber gasket inside the cylinder holder is a very important seal between the cylinder and
the machine. If this is missing, damaged or misplaced, the machine will not work properly.
Possible symptoms of a faulty or missing cylinder gasket could be:
1. Leaking sound from the cylinder compartment when pushing down the handle
2. Water drops in the cylinder compartment or freezing of the cylinder
3. Gas cylinder is running empty quickly
4. Gas cylinder is leaking gas when it is screwed into the machine, even though the lever is
horizontal.
Checking status of gasket
Unscrew the cylinder. Turn the Aarke machine up side down. Look into cylinder compartment.
Look if there is a black gasket (a black ring) around the brass pin and that it seems to be in place
correctly.
Replacing gasket
(
See aarke.com for an illustrated instruction.)
1. The extra gasket is placed under the foot below the sticker with the text "Extra gasket".
Remove the sticker and take out the rubber gasket.
2. Make sure that the CO2 cylinder is not installed in the machine. A few inches below the black
splitline there is a screw at the back of the machine. Unscrew it.
3. Grab the upper part of the machine and lift it out from the body.
4. Turn the upper part up side down and look into it. If needed, take out the old gasket with a
tweezer / nipper or a small screwdriver.
5. Put the new gasket into the circular hole and push it in place all around the hole.

6. Put the upper part back on the main body. Make sure you put it back straight and in the right
direction. Screw the screw at the back of the machine. Done!
