4. Adjust the flathead screw in the pressure stat to change pressure. Clockwise will increase boiler pressure, counterclockwise will decrease boiler pressure. Only make 1/2 turn adjustments at a time and allow the machine time to stabilize before further adjustment for safety reasons - too large of an adjustment may create too large of an increase in pressure which could damage the machine or cause injury.
