II. INSTALLATION
Figure 1 shows typical regulator parts and connections to a cylinder; connect
regulator as follows:
A Observe precautions in SAFETY Section.
B. Before connecting regulator to a cylinder or pipeline, slightly engage adjusting
knob (turn in, clockwise) to drain regulator, then release knob (counter clockwise).
C. Connect regulator inlet connection to cylinder or pipeline and tighten it fi rmly but
not excessively, with a suitable wrench.
D. At this point, it is recommended that a Eutectic Tri-Safe Flashback Arrestor be
installed on the regulator outlet fi tting. This is necessary in order to protect the regulator
and cylinder in the event a fl ashback occurs.
E. Connect and tighten hose nut to fl ashback arrestor fi tting and attach downstream
equipment as needed.
