IMPORTANT—USER SAFETY AND PROTECTION: In setting up systems to fit your operations, care must be taken to select the
proper components and design to insure appropriate integration with your operations and existing equipment and that all safety
measures have been taken to avoid the risk of personal injury and property damage from your application or system.
GARDNER BENDER CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE OR INJURY CAUSED BY UNSAFE USE, MAINTENANCE
OR APPLICATION OF ITS PRODUCTS. Please contact GARDNER BENDER for guidance when you are in doubt as to the
proper safety precautions to be taken in designing and setting up your particular application.
Prior to attaching the1105A hose fitting to a
CO
2 tank valve, be certain the tank valve is
closed. CO
2 escaping under pressure will
cause injury.
INSTALLATION
The 1105A operating valve and hose assembly
consists of a 1225A operating valve and a 12
foot hose assembly. See Figure 1.
Figure 1
1105A Operating Valve and Hose Assembly
Swaged fittings on the hose assembly are
“factory installed” and are not replaceable. If
hose or fittings are damaged, discard the hose
assembly (UG12). The 1175A and 1180 coupling
can be replaced.
For hoses longer than 12 feet remove 1180
coupling and connect UG12 to existing hose and
replace 1180 coupling.
NOTE: The 1105A hose assembly is specifically
designed for use on GB Model 950 and
GB Model 1208 CO
2
tanks. Do not
attempt to modify the 1105A valve and
hose assembly to fit any other type of
gas or compressed air tanks such as
oxygen, acetylene, etc.
ATTACH THE 1105A OPERATING VALVE AND
HOSE ASSEMBLY to a 20 or 50 pound CO
2
tank. Thread the hose coupling nut “hand tight”
onto the tank valve. See Figure 2.

OPERATION
The 1105A operating valve and hose assembly
controls the flow of gas from the CO
2
tank. Gas
will remain under pressure in the 1105A hose
assembly.
The 1105A operating valve accepts seal-off
assemblies from 1/2 to 6 inch capacity. See
Figure 3.
To prevent injury, always keep a firm grip on
seal-offs and operating valves. An unrestrained
hose will be uncontrollable when the operating
valve is opened to release CO
2
.
11..
Connect the seal-off assembly to the
operating valve.(Refer to Figure 3).
22..
Turn the ball lock coupling sleeve to align the
sleeve notch with the ball embedded in the
ball lock coupling.
33..
Pull the sleeve toward the valve and hold it
while inserting the fitting from the seal-off.
44..
Release the sleeve, turn the notch away from
the embedded ball to prevent releasing the
seal-off.
55..
Check the coupling connection by pulling the
seal-off to be certain it is seated in the valve
ball lock coupling.

tank and squeeze
the valve handle to release any remaining
CO
2
in the hose assembly.
