How to remove a dxs reg?

[Ninja]

are these loctited on does anyone know?? Also whats the best way to get one off??

They have a small amount of loctite.
Best way if you do not want to damage or scratch anything, is to use a soft jaw vice and a couple of strap wrenches.

Soft jaw vice most certainly.

Are you wanting to replace the reg or is it for a flight?

If you were taking it on a flight then you need to be able to take it off again to come back (so you would need to scrub the remaining loctite off). Either way you should get it properly torque'd on, but if you were planning to remove it a few days later then you might "forget" the torque...

Still dunno why bottle companies loctite them on instead of just torquing them on, plenty of threads are completely ruined through loctite...

I think if it were just for a flight you can remove the top half and internals from memory......
