ADJUSTING THE OPERATING PRESSURE (FIG 5)
When adjusting the operating
pressures, refer to the relevant table
on page 9,
depending whether
welding or cutting etc.
Adjust the operating pressure on both
cylinders by turning the regulator
valve knobs in a clockwise direction,
observe the low pressure gauge
(
Right Hand Gauge)
until the gauge
reading is at the correct pressure
setting.
NOTE:
The left hand gauge shows the pressure in the cylinder and is not
adjustable. This is an indication how much oxygen/acetylene
remains inside the cylinder.
