What other parts do I need to make this work right out of the box. What type propane/coupler etc? Anyone want to help? Thanks!

No other parts required, just the small green propane bottle like you buy in the Wal mart camping area for 3-4$. It screws right on there and will fire right up

It uses the regular old Coleman green 2 lb. propane bottles you find in the outdoors department of your local mega mart and they just screw on. Crack the knurled knob and flick the igniter near the tip then adjust the flame with the knob. Make sure the bottle is screwed on completely to depress the discharge valve in the bottle. 1 bottle should get you around the average sized yard several times before running out of gas. Shut the nozzle off, unscrew the bottle and hang the wand where it won't touch anything until it's cool.

Personally, I buy my propane tanks from Wal-Mart...propane tank is about 10" long by about 5" in diameter. They have a threaded top made to screw into the Bernzomatic handle. Cost of tank, roughly $2-3. The tank last several hours at 60% open and somewhat less at wide-open. No couplers are required...just be careful NOT to cross-thread when screwing the tank onto the handle. I have replaced many tanks with no problems.

Wow! Way over my head with that one! Never owned a propane- fueled vehicle, so put me down as a "Don't Know". Good luck.

No heater is ready for hook up right out of the box. All you need is the flex gas line.

My husband is in the process of getting this hooked up. We purchased the transfer switch so it is a little more involved. Our hope was to run a hook up from our 500 gal tank but some of his coworkers (hospital maintenance workers) said there could be an issue with pressure from our large home propane tank so they referred him to our propane supplier. You might want to call your company and speak with an expert. We haven't made the call yet.

You might want to check with the manufacturer, but most times there needs to be a modification kit to change from natural gas to propane. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You need to supply your own propane canisters. They're easily found at any sporting goods store, and are inexpensive.

You need to hook it up with a propane regulator that is rated at 11 lb of pressure like one you would use on a bar-b-q. Thats what I used on mine and it works great.

CEVA will deliver it from their facility. The assembly is pretty straight forward. No complicated parts or "similar" pieces. Will take about an hour. Just don't forget that you need a tank for the propane.No special tools required.

If you are not familiar with it have the local propane company do it. It is simple with fittings from Home Depot or mensrds or any type hardware store stocks them . I love this generator , easy start , nothing to do but keep the oil changed an trickle charger plugged in

Someone put this together for me and hooked it up so not sure. I would seriously advise you to ask one of the places that have LP gas, and they could advise you. As well, I think the book that comes with it maybe talks about fittings as well. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

I will have to send you pictures of my set-up later on this week. Briefly I have three Weber carbs and a fuel distributional block from Mr. Gasket and I placed it upstream of this, but if you have fuel injection the pressure is about two or three times what the gauge will register

This model is just propane/gas. Look around in the web and search for the model you need. I had simply just deleted the electric service on mine. But mind you it is a manual light.

I would contact Coleman directly. I ordered a burner and regulator from them for my older grill some time ago.

I am in about the same boat. I just used a regular propane bottle. It hooked right up and I had no trouble with it at all. I was a little leary of it at first because It was the first time I had ever tried to do such a thing , but even regulating the flame was not that hard, and soon became confident turning on the gas and lighting the flame. I'd say go for it. I'm a 70 year old woman and if I can do it anyone ought to be better than me.

I just bought one on 11/11/13, and would like to also convert it to propane fire ring. Did you complete yours yet and how did it go? any tips ?Thanks. John

Was planning on switching over to a type C converter myself which will burn both gas and propane. Check on you tube for vid's doing swap over.

It does not come with the regulator or hose necessary for hookup. I already had the items from a previous propane unit I was replacing. If you are hooking up to a portable propane tank, the regulator on the tank may or may not be sufficient. If you are hooking up to a bulk tank, you probably already have a regulator installed where the propane line enters the house. Again, this may or may not be sufficient. The best thing to do is get in touch with a local propane supplier to find out what is necessary and LEGAL in your state. As a side note, the unit also does not contain the floor mount kit to leave it on the floor rather than mounting it to the wall. No big deal for me, but I believed it was included when I ordered it. Over all this is a wonderful unit and I am very happy with it.
