    Hornet filler-probe restrictor

    Having splashed 'oot and bought myself a secondhand 300bar bottle I want to refit the restrictor screw in the Hornet filler-probe. It's basically an allen headed screw that screws down inside the probe restricting the airflow when you gas up from a pressurised cylinder.

    I removed it to make my life easier with the Hills pump, problem is I don't know how far to screw it back in.


    Any ideas gratefully recieved...

    Is that a qualified response to a technical question or wishful thinking on your behalf ???

    You Can Leave It Out For A Hand Pump

    To Fill From A Cylinder Replace It

    The Further You Screw It In The More Restriction

    It Leaves The Factory All The Way In
