Yes you can test the 3 functions. Set to NORMAL and pull trigger (keeping pulled) you should hear the contactor operate and stay operated as long as you have the trigger pulled, release trigger. Set now to SPOT, pull trigger (and keep pulled) and the contactor should be heard to operate for aprox 3 seconds then it should drop out even though you still have trigger pulled. Release trigger. Set now to STITCH, pull trigger (and keep pulled) contactor should operate, then will drop out after aprox 6 seconds BUT with trigger still held it will operate contactor again and so on until you release the trigger.
The TIME for the SPOT and STITCH should be adjustable by some of the dials on the front of machine. Can't tell which as the photo is not clear enough.
The reg should work (assuming it is not duff!) and the fitting on it is for a AR+CO2 mix bottle but would need to be the bigger type bottles like you get from BOC. Most of the Hobby type bottles that have AR+CO2 (or just CO2) will have a fitting on them same as the type on a pub CO2 cylinder (as most seam to be ex pub cylinders!) and that regulator won't fit them. Look at the bottles in this link and you will see they have a MALE thread on bottle so req a reg with a FEMALE fitting (and side entry) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Co2-Gas-C...734672?hash=item21051d6a90:g:oAwAAOxy4dNS-S5o
