Connection - Cal Flame FRP-1000 Owner's Manual

Check the rating plate to make sure the gas supply you
are hooking up to is the gas type the firepit or fireplace
is manufactured for.
If you do not have an updated filler valve on your existing
propane tank, you will need to purchase one at your
local hardware store, as you will not be allowed to refill
the tank at any filling station.
Use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied
with LP models. Replacement pressure regulator
and hose assemblies must be those specified in this
manual.
The 20 lb LP gas cylinder used must include a collar to
protect the cylinder valve.
Be certain to mount or set the 20 lb LP gas cylinder on a
flat surface and restrain it to prevent it from tipping.

Installation and Assembly

Connection

Inspect the hose shipped with the unit for damage.
Never attempt to use damaged or plugged equipment.
See your local LP gas dealer for repairs. After inspecting
the LP hose shipped with the unit, connect the end with
the female fitting on the hose to the male fitting on the
on/off gas valve at the end of the hose. Tighten fittings
using two wrenches.
When connecting the regulator assembly to the tank
valve, hand tighten the black QCC1 nut clockwise. DO
NOT use a wrench to tighten. See the figure below.
Purge the gas supply line of any trapped air prior to the
first firing of the unit.
During the initial purging and subsequent lightings,
NEVER allow gas to remain in the 'Open" position
without first placing and igniting the fire starter.
Locate the hose out of the pathways where people may
trip over it or in areas where the hose may be subjected
to accidental damage.
