TAKEN AND THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED.

Changing from Gasoline to LP Gas.

1. Start the engine from the ground control station.

2. Open the hand valve on the LP Gas supply tank by turn-

ing counterclockwise.

BE SURE ALL GASOLINE IS EXHAUSTED BEFORE SWITCHING TO LP
GAS.

3. While the engine is operating, place the LPG/GAS

SELECT switch at the platform control station to the LP
Gas position.

Changing from LP Gas to Gasoline.

1. With the engine operating on LP gas under a no load

condition, position the LPG/GAS SELECT switch at the
platform control station to the GAS SELECT position.

2. If the engine ‘stumbles’ because of a lack of gasoline,

place the switch to the LPG position until the engine
regains smoothness, then return the switch to the GAS
SELECT position. Repeat as necessary until the engine
runs smoothly on gasoline.

Close the hand valve on the LP gas supply tank by turning
clockwise.
