CAUTION
Risk of malfunctions
Obstructions, damage, and foreign matter can lead
to malfunction of hoses mounted on pressure re-
ducers.
Check all components of hoses to be mounted on
pressure reducers for obstructions, damage, and
foreign matter before installation.
Components which fail this check must not be in-
stalled and/or used.

Detach the protection cap from the outlet port.
Keep the protection cap for later transport or stor-
age.

Connect the pressure reducer tightly to the valve
of the compressed gas cylinder (A) by hand. Do
not use tools. The connections must fit each oth-
er. Do not use adapters.
Use of the pressure reducer after a longer period
of storage (longer than 1 year):
Prior to using the pressure reducer slowly open
the valve of the compressed gas cylinder twice
with a connected pressure reducer and check the
flow in well ventilated rooms or outdoors.

pressed gas cylinder is sufficient for the
planned use.

1
Slowly open the valve (A) of the compressed gas
cylinder by turning counterclockwise.
2
Monitor pressure in the compressed gas cylinder
on pressure gauge.
When gas is not required
Close the valve of the compressed gas cylinder.
CAUTION
The compressed gas cylinder remains closed and
is used as a backup to the central supply.
Stopping operation
Close the valve of the compressed gas cylinder.
