Hello All,
I have a quick question. I need to reattach my milwaukee regulator to my c02 bottle and realized that I misplaced the instructions. I would seriously appreciate a quick rundown of the procedure. Thanks in advance!
 
I have a Milwaukee regulator on my reef aquarium's calcium reactor. It's actually quite easy...

1) be sure the little washer is in place between the regulator and tank connection and tighten as much as possible. Fill bubble counter half-way with water

2) connect co2 tubing to the valve on the bubble counter. Close needle valve.

3) SLOWLY turn the co2 tank valve all the way to open.

4) Using the black knob on regulator, adjust right hand gauge so that it reads 10

5) Adjust needle valve to desired bubble count.

Adjusting the bubble count can be tricky - it takes some fiddling with the black knob and the needle valve.

Hope that helps.
