manual.

• Always keep new and exchanged

LP tanks in upright position during
use, transit or storage.

• Leak test new and exchanged

LP tanks BEFORE connecting to
appliance.

LP Tank Leak Test
For your Safety
• Leak test must be repeated each

time LP tank is exchanged or
refilled.

• Do not smoke during leak test.
• Do not use an open flame to check

for gas leaks.

• Appliance must be leak checked

outdoors in well-ventilated area,
away from ignition sources such as
gas fired or electrical appliances.
During leak test, keep appliance
away from open flames or sparks.

Use a clean paintbrush 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.

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 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!

into the valve outlet. You may
damage the valve and cause a
leak. Leaking propane may result
in explosion, fire, severe personal
injury, or death.
