2. Take the plastic T-handle fuel selector in the poly bag supplied
with the generator and locate the selector tab on the air box
cover. Insert the pin end into the hole in the selector tab
and pull outward to overcome spring pressure. Then twist
clockwise 90 degrees and allow the selector to return in once
aligned with the LP position.

INSTALLING & CONNECTING GAS LINES
1. Both natural gas and LP Vapor are highly volatile substances,
so strict adherence to all safety procedures, codes, standards
and regulations is essential.
Gas line connections should be made by a certified plumber
familiar with local codes. Always use AGA-approved gas pipe
and a quality pipe sealant or joint compound.
Verify the capacity of the natural gas meter or the LP tank in
regards to providing sufficient fuel for both the generator and
other operating appliances.
2. Most applications will require an external manual shutoff valve
on the fuel line.
3. Where the gas line is to enter the generator, install a T-fitting
to allow for gas pressure monitoring. On one opening of the
fitting install a ¼" NPT nipple and threaded plug. In some
cases a sediment trap may also be installed.
