SAFETY
• Attach the regulator to the cylinder valve and tighten regulator nut with a wrench.
• Before opening the main CO2 cylinder valve (applicable for standard CGA-320 only), adjust the • • • •
• pressure knob by turning it counter-clockwise until it is completely off. This is indicated by the “-“ sign.
• Position yourself safely beside the cylinder that is opposite from the regulator when opening the • • • •
