GENERATOR PREPARATION
STEP 2 - ADD / CHECK FUEL (CONTINUED)
FUEL OPTION B: LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG)
To connect your generator to an LPG cylinder:
1. Take off the safety caps from the cylinder valve, generator mounted
regulator, and regulator connecting hose ends.
2. With the LPG tank valve closed, attach the LPG regulator connecting
hose to the valve. Turn the plastic coupling from the hose right (clock-
wise) to tighten hose assembly onto the LPG tank (Fig. 7).
3. Remove the protective rubber cover from the LPG inlet (Fig. 8 -
1) on the generator panel. Connect the nut on the other end of the
regulator connecting hose to the LPG inlet. Tighten the nut using the
included 19mm wrench. Turn the 2-in-1 dial switch to OFF.
4. Turn the LPG tank valve ON (Fig. 9) and check for leaks by spraying
soapy water to check connections. If bubbles appear, become larger
in size, or increase in number, a leak exists. This MUST be corrected
before using generator. Contact WEN customer service at
1-800-232-
1195,
M-F 8-5 CST, or email
for as-
sistance.
NOTE:
You can use Teflon (or other tape) to secure the connection of
the LPG hose to your generator.
NOTE:
If you would like to purchase other accessories for your dual-
fuel generator, consult your local dealer of propane and propane ac-
cessories, I tell you what.
CAUTION!
Always position the LPG cylinder so the connection
between the tank and LPG inlet won’t cause sharp bends or kinks
in the hose.
WARNING!
Risk of burns. Contact with liquid contents of cyl-
inder will cause freeze burns to the skin. If liquid contents contacts
skin or eyes, seek immediate medical attention.
WARNING!
When transporting and storing, keep cylinder secured in an upright position with cylinder valve
turned off. Keep cylinders ventilated and away from heat when in a vehicle.
