Try tightening the regulator to the cylinder and opening the cylinder again. If this does not help, shut the system down again and contact a service representative
- Adjust the flow rate setting by turning the knob clockwise until the desired setting shows through the window
- If the cylinder pressure falls below 300 PSI, one should exchange the cylinder for a full one
