Remove the hexagonal lid from the upper part of the regulator with an adjustable wrench. Remove the plastic button on the lid and turn it, pressing it firmly into place so that the letters "LP", instead of "NAT" can be clearly read on the button. Replace the lid and button set on the upper part of the regulator, properly sealing it. Make sure that the spring is in place. Do not over-tighten.
