FX Impact M3 - Hopefully this doesn't become a disastrous issue....

So I very recently installed the huma transfer port and the FX slug power kit into my .25 Impact M3. Upon installing these new additions I had to remove the air bottle quite a few times because I was just starting to learn the inner workings of the gun. So after I ran into a bit of a problem with my Regulator 2 pressure not giving me a reading, I called Utah Airguns and was advised by a Tech over the phone to remove my air bottle and take a 2.5mm allen key and turn counter-clockwise until it gently stops. Which I did, and as soon as i re-attached my air bottle the Regulator 1 pressure was reading 250 bar. After about 2 minutes, I removed the air bottle again and readjusted the Regulator 1 to read 160 bar. My question is, Did I damage anything inside the rifle? Because it states in the owners manual to never adjust your regulator pressure over 170. And...well it was at 250. However...I did NOT shoot the rifle, nor was it kept at this 250 setting for a long period of time. Im just kind of pissed off that I was advised to do this by a so called "tech" who should know better? When it clearly states to never go above 170 in the owners manual. Am I being overly worrisome? Or am I within my right to be somewhat ticked off about this?
In the picture below is with the red arrow pointing to where I made the adjustment. So you can see for yourself. Please, any and all feedback is very much appreciated and very much welcomed.

Like Lewis said, you didn't hurt anything. I have had the 2nd reg up to 240bar a few times and there is no effect. Both the regulators are made to with stand those types of forces. How do you think guys are getting some of these massive slugs well over 1000 fps? ;) I can tell you they are not sprinkling pixie dust on their slugs.
