CONNECTING THE LP TANK

outlet. Be sure the nipple is centered in the valve outlet. The coupling
nut connects to the large outside threads on the valve outlet. Use
care – do not cross thread the connection.

Turn the coupling nut counterclockwise until the regulator assembly detaches.
In the connection process, make sure:
• the regulator inlet connector mates with the cylinder valve outlet properly, safely and firmly, and;
• the LP gas hose does not come in contact or remain in contact with the firebox.
