Install the pressure regulator with the arrow pointing up
toward the bottom of the burner box and in a position where
you can reach the regulator cap.
IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do
not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making
the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause
a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn on the pipe
when tightening fittings.
Use only pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP
gas. Do not use TEFLON _ tape.
You will need to determine the fittings required depending on
your installation.
Typical flexible connection
1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to the
smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters (see C
and F in following illustration).
2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the
other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.
3. Use a 1%6"combination wrench and channel lock pliers to
attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that
connector is not kinked.
