1. Create a mixture of 50% water and 50% liquid dishwashing soap.
2. Ensure all control knobs are set to the OFF position.
3. Turn on the gas at the cylinder valve. Turn the cylinder valve knob counter-clockwise until
fully opened. If you hear a rushing sound or smell gas, turn the gas off. Tighten any leaking
connections. If the leak is detected at connection nut and tightening does not stop leak, re-inspect
propane tank rubber seal.
4. Apply the soapy water mixture to the following:
A) Supply tank (cylinder) welds
B) Connection nut to tank valve
C) Back side of connection nut to brass nipple
D) Brass nipple connection into regulator
E) Regulator connections to gas supply hoses
F) Hose connection to gas manifold
G) The full length of gas supply hose
H) Tank valve to cylinder
5. Check each place listed (A-H) for growing bubbles, which indicates a leak. Large leaks may not be
detected by bubbles but should produce a rushing sound or gas smell.
6.
7. Turn on control knobs to release gas pressure in hose.
8. Turn control knobs to OFF position.
9. Tighten any leaking connections. If leak is detected at connection nut and tightening does not stop

10. Repeat soapy water test until no leaks are detected.
11.

Note: The leak test must be performed in an area that has adequate lighting in order to see if bubbles are
developing and not in a windy or noisy area so larger leaks can be detected by smell or sound.
CAUTION
need to apply the soapy water mixture to the gas supply pipe nipple.
