Steyr LG-100 Cylinder Gauge Damaged

My air cylinder for the LG-100 took a little drop after filling (wood floor). Butter Fingers. Gauge now reads 0. No other damage. Holds air just fine, just don't know how much.
Anyone know how to adjust/repair gauge?

Thanks,
George

Almost certainly replacing the gauge is required and this normally means dismantling the cylinder safely by a gunsmith. I would imagine a new cylinder for a couple of hundred dollars may cost about the same as a repair.

It's a cheap item but probably not by the time you've found the exact match.

If you have the tools a replacement is a 2 min job. Steyr do quick fill conversions for the lg110. Might be worth looking into for the lg100 to see if they fit.

I am not saying it is moral, but a LG100 cylinder is likely over 10 years old, and any repair shop may be afraid of repairing an out of date cylinder. You may be looking at a new unit if you want the gauge. I would probably just refill by pellet count.
