To depressurize – hold the extinguisher in a vertical position and slowly squeeze the discharge handle. Thoroughly clean all valve parts after depressurization and valve removal. Amerex CO2 valve bodies and aluminum cylinders are 1⅛"-12 UNF straight threads. Use a proper straight-thread adapter when hydrostatically testing. When reinstalling the valve assembly, the cylinder must be placed in a suitable securing vice.
