Help! (907 Gas Bottle)

Just tried this with help of the good lady wife, no joy.
Awaiting a quote for an engineer to replace the regulator. Depends on this amount whether I attempt myself.
Presumably the 8mm or 10mm refers to the copper pipe outlet?
Ah, that’s a shame. I would suggest the 8 or 10mm is the inlet pipe size not the outlet. Measure the incoming copper pipe to see what size it is and go from there.
Incoming FROM the cylinder yes? That’s a flexible black hose type yes?
8 or 10mm will be the outlet side
To continue the daft questions.Black arrow will move (loosen) towards copper pipe, yellow arrow will not budge, which one should I be aiming to remove?
This is to gauge cross section of copper pipe 8mm versus 10mm to purchase correct replacement regulator
The black one .
Okay, so loosen that and then should just come out? Leave other one alone yes
if you don't want to pull the copper pipe about to much undo the black arrow nut and remove the regulator, rather than remove the pipe from the regulator, remove the regulator from the pipe hopefully that makes sense
Can’t seem to shift the yellow, so yes, will remove the black, to try and gauge whether copper pope is 8 or 10mm
Excellent! Thank you

Looking at the pipe over the copper pipe (red) it will be 8mm copper as the red is 12mm pipe with a 9mm bore. When undoing the black also have a spanner on the yellow hexagon and the same when doing it up. If the two move at the same time when loosening or tightening the copper will twist and potentially shear
Yes, absolutely. Dooh!
Hi all,
Took
Old regulator off (on right).
New regulator has a diff connector piece?!
Have I ordered the wrong one.
Note from copper pipe, the locking collar won’t come off, do I just man handle off or should that just slide off? As stands I can’t seem to get that collar shifted?

does the
They look the same size outlet the red arrowed bit needs removing from the new regulator and the copper pipe should just screw on you dont need to remove anything from the old copper the fitting looks the same

That brass fitting is for a new install just remove it and connect your own fitting but do not overtighten it then switch on gas supply and test all joints with leak detector.
