2.6.2 CONNECTING LP FUEL TANK

Do not use or store LP cylinder in a building,
garage or enclosed area except as authorized
by NFPA 58 or B149.2 (in Canada).
 Do not check for leaks with a match or flame.

The cylinder valve should be left off (closed)
when the generator is not in use.
NOTE:
LP Vapor Pressure at 0 °F is 30 psi, and LP Vapor Pressure at
100 °F is 218 psi.
• Use only standard 20 or 30 pound capacity LP tanks with
Type 1, right hand Acme threads with this generator. Verify the
requalification date on the tank has not expired. Do not use
rusted or damaged cylinders.
• All new cylinders must be purged of air and moisture prior to
filling. Used cylinders that have not been plugged or kept closed
must also be purged.
• The purging process should be done by your propane gas
supplier. (Cylinders from an exchange supplier should have
been purged and filled properly already)
• Lift the tank and place carefully in the rear tank bracket and
tank shroud with the connection point facing the front of the
generator (Figure 10).
• Remove the safety plug or cap from the cylinder valve.
• Attach the connector snugly into the valve. Remember, turn the
plastic coupling from the hose right to tighten or clockwise.
• Always position the cylinder so the connection between the
valve and the regulator won’t cause sharp bends or kinks in
the hose.

• Check for leaks by spraying soapy water to the connections
being tested.
• If bubbles appear, become larger in size or increase in number,
a leak exists.
• This must be corrected before using the generator. Contact your
local Authorized Service Facility for assistance.
• Contact with liquid contents of the cylinder will cause freeze
burns to the skin.
• Do not allow children to tamper or play with the cylinder.
• When transporting and storing, keep cylinder secured in an
upright position with cylinder valve turned off and the outlet
plugged. (usually by a plastic protective cap) Keep cylinders
away from heat and ventilated when in a vehicle.
