Secure the cylinder
Secure the gas cylinder supplied to a suitable wall, within 1 metre of the Command-Centre

position. This is undertaken by screwing the metal bar holding the hook-and-loop strap to a cupboard wall,
200mm above the floor or base of the cupboard. Make sure the gas cylinder can stand in place before
securing to the wall. Due to regulatory requirements the gas cylinder must be stored securely and in an
upright position.
2.2 Connect the regulator
Remove the gas cylinder from the strap. Make sure the regulator
knob is turned fully clockwise to the end-stop before fitting.
Screw the regulator (clockwise) onto the cylinder. Be aware that
some CO

cylinder and the regulator when assembled together. Any CO
2
released will be cold. Screw on the regulator to stop this leakage.

regulator. Then connect the push fit fitting to the top of the
Command-Centre

To turn the gas on, rotate the regulator knob anti - clockwise to
the end stop.
2.4 Test for gas leaks
Using soapy water perform a leak test. Apply the soapy water
to the gas connections using a sponge or brush. If any bubbles
appear and grow, there is a gas leak at the connection. Clean away the soapy residue and tighten or refit the
leaking connection. Make sure the gas is turned off when tightening or refitting the leaking connection.
Refit the gas cylinder to the hook-and-loop strap. Ensure the cylinder is in an upright position.
