Step 19
Connect LP tank
WARNING: Make sure that the LP tank valve is closed. Close by turning clockwise.
Hook the LP tank onto the fuel scale. Loosen the tank lock wing nut. Swing the tank lock down. Tighten the wing nut. Figure 26.
Route the hose so it will not interfere with the scale indicator rod.
The hose and regulator are connected in the following manner:
Slide back the collar of the quick disconnect on the tank valve. Push the male fitting of the regulator into the quick disconnect, and maintain pressure. Slide the collar closed. Figure 27 (a). Figure 27 (b) shows the quick disconnect engaged and various components of the tank and regulator. Regulator vent hole should be at 3, 6, or 9 o'clock. It should not be pointed up. Figure 27 (c).
