3. Completely open LP tank valve by turning OPD hand wheel

counterclockwise. If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off

immediately. There is a major leak at the connection.

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

and 6. If you are still unable to complete

the connection, do not use this regulator!

Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME® for identical replacement parts.

• Do not insert any tool or foreign objects into the valve

outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve

and cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in

explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.

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

department.

• If you cannot stop a gas leak, immediately close LP tank

valve and call LP gas supplier or your fire department!

. If “growing” bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close LP tank

valve immediately and retighten connections. If leaks

cannot be stopped do not try to repair. Call Sears for

replacement parts at 1-800-4-MY-HOME®.

6. Always close LP tank valve after performing leak test by

turning hand wheel clockwise.

• Never attempt to attach this grill to the self-contained

LP gas system of a camper trailer or motor home.
