it says that i shouldn't go past 200 psi. On where? THe max flow reg? and if it is how do i know what my pressure is the first time i hook up my tank. Like what if my tank pressure is already higher than 200 psi ( its an 800 psi fixed tank). don't i need to hook it up to check but won't it ruin it since it's already higher? Please answer, i don't know what to do :(

you dont want to turn the reg up past 200, i think . . . there should be a gauge on the max flow if im not mistaken . . .

Your gun should not be receiving anything over 200psi, as it may blow your solenoid.
So, make sure to set you MaxFlow to 200psi or less. 180 is the default.
Any more questions? Feel free to ask.

i know that i can't go over 200 psi, but to set the reg pressure don't i need to hook up the tank? And if i hook up the tank to lower it because it's too high, won't it break it from the start. I don't under stand how to do this unless you can lower the pressure without the tank hooked up

No, it's all right.
Keep your gun turned off, screw in the tank, and turn on the tank.
Then look at the reading...set it to 180psi...and you're done.
That's the pressure going to the MaxFlow...ready to enter the 'gun...so just leave the 'gun turned off, if you want. You can leave it turned on, just don't shoot when it's a very high pressure.

Before you screw the tank in...to be safe.. unscrew the max flow thingamabob till it's almost all the way off...that way when you put the tank on, the regulator pressure will not be anywhere near 200 psi..but closer to around 100 psi...and you can screw it in until you get just under 180 psi. 180 works too, but anywhere from 160 to 180 is ideal.
