GENERATOR PREPARATION
FUEL OPTION B: LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) - CONTINUED
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 closed, attach the LPG regulator connecting hose
into the valve. Turn the plastic coupling from the hose right (clock-
wise) to tighten hose assembly onto the LPG tank (Fig. 7).
3. Connect the opposite regulator connecting hose end to the genera-
tor’s LPG primary regulator with a 3/4 in. (19mm) wrench (not sup-
plied) (Fig. 8).
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 your local Independent Authorized
Service Dealer (IASD) for assistance.
NOTE:
You can use Teflon (or other tape) to secure the connection of
the LPG hose to your generator.
CAUTION:
Always position the LPG cylinder so the connection be-
tween the valve and regulator won’t cause sharp bends or kinks in
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 se-
cured in an upright position with cylinder valve turned off. Keep
cylinders ventilated and away from heat when in a vehicle.
