The instructions stated on gas cylinder tanks have to be followed when filling or transporting
tanks. Failure to do so could result in problems relating to overfilling, excessive venting release
of gas and to regulator freezing.
. The knob on the LP tank must be closed. See that the knob is turned
clockwise to a full stop.
. Check that the control knob on the smoker is turned off.
. Remove the protective cap from the LP tank valve and coupling nut,
if present.
. Hold the regulator in one hand and insert the nipple into the valve
outlet. Be sure the nipple is centered in the valve outlet. The
coupling nut connects to the large outside threads on the valve outlet.
Use care - do not cross thread the connection.
. Hand tighten the coupling nut clockwise until it comes to a full stop.
Firmly tighten by hand only. Do not use tools.

will seal on the back check in the valve, resulting in a slight resistance.
The connection requires about one-half to three-quarters additional
turn to complete the connection.
