As per rule <R102> you are not allowed to adjust the pressure relief valve.

Thanks... my advice did ignore R101... it was written late at night, but I have edited the original post to highlight this oversight. As for R102, however, our pressure relief valve (for the first time, I might add) was not tight when it arrived and would release at less than 100 psi. It was necessary to adjust it to return it to FIRST specs, and it is now tightly locked in place at 120-125psi.
