- Inspect the female 1/8" NPT port threads for any damage. IF THREADS ARE DAMAGED OR WORN STOP! DO NOT US THE REGULATOR AND SEE AN AIRSMITH OR CALL 877-NINJAUSA It is recommended that a go/no-go thread gauge be used to verify these threads.
- A thread sealant has been applied to the threads on the new Fill Check. Do not use any additional sealant
- Turn it in until it is hand tight, and then tighten a further 1 &1/2 turns. It should not be necessary to exceed 100 inch-pounds of torque to achieve sealing. If leaks still occur STOP contact and Airsmith or call 877-NINJAUSA.
