Use a clean paint brush and 50/50 soap and water solution.
Use mild soap and water. Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to gas train
components can result.
Brush soapy solution onto all weld seams and entire valve area.
WARNING
If “growing” bubbles appear, do not use or move the LP tank. Contact an LP gas supplier
or your fire department.
Connecting Regulator to the LP Tank
1. Place LP tank on a secure, level, and stable surface.
2. Turn control knob to the OFF position.
3. Turn LP tank OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full
stop.
4. Remove the protective cap from the LP tank valve. Always
use cap and strap supplied with valve.
5. Hold regulator, insert nipple (B) into LP tank valve. Hand-tighten coupling nut, holding
regulator in a straight line (c) with LP tank valve so as not to cross-thread the
connection.
6. Turn the coupling nut clockwise to
tighten to a full solid stop. The
regulator will seal on the back-check
feature in the LP tank valve, resulting
in some resistance. An additional
one-half to three-quarters turn is
required to complete connection.
Tighten by hand only – do not use
tools.
NOTE: If you cannot complete connection,
disconnect regulator and repeat steps 5
and 6. If you are still unable to complete the connection, do not use this regulator!
Do not use a POL transport plug (A)
(plastic part with external threads)! It
will defeat the safety feature of the
valve.
