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 G in
following illustration).
2. Attach 1 adapter and nipple to the gas
pressure regulator and the other adapter
and nipple to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten
both adapters and nipples.
3. Use a 15/16" combination wrench and
pliers to attach the flexible connector to
the adapters. Check that connector is not
kinked.
