Installing Hoses:
After having determined the type of hose and preferred orientation -
Remove the port plugs from those ports to be used by turning them counter clockwise
with a 5/32" hex key. Save the port plugs for possible future use.
Lightly lubricate the hose-end threads and o-ring with Christo-Lube MCG111 lubricant
(silicone grease is acceptable only if the regulator is not designated for use with
nitrox).
Thread the hose clockwise into the port until secure, then tighten it with an open end
wrench of the appropriate size to a torque of 40 in-lbs.
Second stage - 9/16" wrench
LP inflator - 9/16" (or 1/2") wrench
HP gauge or integrated computer - 5/8" wrench
After all hoses are connected, test the complete regulator assembly by attaching it to
an appropriate tank, pressurizing the system, and carefully listening for leakage of
breathing gas.
REMOVAL OF HOSES
WARNING: At least one second stage must be connected to the first stage
to facilitate purging of breathing gas from the first stage.
