3. Loosen the knurled nut on the reducing union of the gas bag adapter.

NOTE: Do not remove the nut from the union, as the Teflon ferrules contained inside the nut

may be lost.

4. Insert the tube stub from the gas bag into the knurled nut. Tighten the

knurled nut and ensure the tube stub is secure. If the gas bag is not
secure, ensure you have inserted the tube stub far enough into the
knurled nut. Do not over-tighten the fitting.

NOTE: Over-tightening the Teflon ferrules will result in damage to the ferrules!

5. The union should be connected to the gas bag adapter. If it is not, then

tighten the nut on the adapter tube to the union.

6. Flush and fill the gas bag. Remove the knurled nut on the adapter tube

from the regulator.

8. Repeat this procedure, if necessary, to prepare a bag of zero air.

NOTE: Do not use the same gas for the bag of zero air. You will contaminate the bag of

zero air.

Using the Gas Bag

To fill gas bag:

1. Turn the knurled plastic knob counter clockwise to unlock it. Use the

knurled collar on the valve tube to gently push the valve tube down,
toward the bag.

2. Turn the knurled plastic knob clockwise to lock the valve tube in place.

3. Turn the regulator knob counter clockwise about half a turn to start the

flow of gas. Fill the gas bag about half full and then close the regulator.

4. Open the syringe port and empty the bag. Flush the bag a few times

with the calibration gas and then fill it.
