Thermos 461644304 Leak Testing Valves, Hose and Regulator, Turn all grill control knobs to OFF

Hold coupling nut and regulator as shown for proper connection to LP tank valve.

6.Turn the coupling nut clockwise and tighten to a full stop. The regulator will seal on the back-check feature in the LP tank valve, resulting in some resistance. An additional one-half to three-quarters turn is required to complete the connection. Tighten by hand only – do not use tools.

NOTE:

If you cannot complete the connection, disconnect regulator and repeat steps 5 and 6. If you are still unable to complete the connection, do not use this regulator!

•Do not use grill until leak-tested.

•If a leak is detected at any time, STOP and call the fire department.
