phragm at the correct point. Note that the threaded

end of the main tube where the bent tube adapter

connects to it protrudes from the regulator body.

the outside end tube of the regulator body. If they are

not, gently rotate the main tube assembly until flat

half turns.

27) Install the bent tube adapter and torque to 30

inch pounds.
