3. Apply several drops of solution where regulator connects to cylinder, apply the soapy solution to

all hose & valve connections.

If bubbles appear at any connection, there is a leak.

1. Turn cylinder valve OFF.

2. If leak is at hose/regulator connection: Add teflon tape and re-attach the regulator to the hose with

wrenches. If bubbles continue appearing, the hose should be returned to the place of purchase.

check. Apply the soapy solution to all hose & valve connections. If you continue to see bubbles after

several attempts, cylinder valve is defective and should be returned to cylinder’s place of purchase.
