appropriate gas and pressure are specified on the Flow Tube or
Flowmeter body.
3. Verify that the Float Ball is at the very bottom of the Flow Tube.

To
increase - Turn Knob counterclockwise

5. Set flow by aligning center of Float Ball with indicator lines on the Flow
Tube.
6. Adjusting flow beyond the last calibrated indicator line will result in
an undetermined flow.

NOTE: Flush flow is any flow above the last calibrated line on the
Flow Tube with an unrestricted flow, as indicated on flowmeter
labeling.
