No Cut Out Adjustment???

My One Pipe steam system has a cut in pressure control which is set to .1 to .5 psi...There is not cut out adjustment on the system that I can find. The system at the top of the cycle gets up to 4+ psi and I would like to lower the pressure...Any ideas??

    high pressure

    Dave, if you have a Honeywell pressuretrol , a differential wheel is located inside the cover and should be set at 1.
    The Cut out setting is the cut-in (scale on the control you set with screwdrive) + the differential. Set cut-in as low as you can on the control and the differential at 1 will operate the system from 1/2# to 1 1/2 #s.
    Make sure a kill the power before opening the control. There are live wires in there!!!
