GENERATOR PREPARATION
FUEL OPTION B: LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) (CONT.)
NOTE: LPG regulator inlet pressure is approximately 30 PSI at 0 °F, and 218 PSI at 100 °F.
• You can use LPG tanks with Type 1, right hand Acme threads with this generator. Verify that the qualification date
on 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 the propane gas supplier. (Cylinders from an exchange supplier should
have been purged and properly filled by supplier).
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 first-stage regulator to the valve.
Turn the regulator’s plastic coupling right (clockwise) to tighten the as-
sembly onto the LPG tank (Fig. 7).
3. Connect the other end of the hose to the generator’s onboard regula-
tor with a 3/4 in. (19mm) wrench (not supplied) (Fig. 8).
4. Turn the LPG tank valve ON (Fig. 9) and check for leaks by spraying
soapy water to check the connections. 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 Independent Authorized
Service Dealer (IASD) for assistance.
NOTE: You can use Teflon (or other tape) to help seal the connection
between the regulator hose and the generator.

CAUTION! Always position the LPG cylinder so the connection
between the valve and regulator won’t cause sharp bends or kinks in
hose.
WARNING! Risk of burns. Contact with liquid contents of cylinder
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.
