I have purchased the Sportsman 7500 Duel Fuel Generator, will this adaptor attach a propane tank to the generator?

It may work.... but probably not as your generator requires a lot of fuel under load. This adapter/regulator is for low pressure situations. My salamander heater does not get enough fuel with this adapter/regulator. I will eliminate the pressure/adapter/regulator and try going direct with the hose only and try to adjust the flow with the valve only.... We'll see....

If you regulate the gen first and then put the adapter in for the heater it should be fine, fed the gen first, it uses the propane much faster that the heater, hope this helps...:)

I had my propane company hook mine up. I highly recommend you do the same. I have a high pressure line from the tank to the regulator that goes to the house. The generator has its own regulator,so they tied into the high pressure line just before the regulator at the house, and installed a valve that was tamper proof. I then had them install a quick connector to the valve. I bought a 12 ft. high pressure hose for the generator and installed the other half of quick connect to it. It works great! Just so you know....... this kind of hookup will void your warranty.

I use this adapter between a tree/manifold and a big two burner Camp Chef stove. The fitting on the hose from the stove would normally connect directly to the 20 pound tank. The adapter lets me use the stove and a lantern on the top of the tree at the same time. It seems to flow plenty of gas for the stove to operate at maximum output on both burners.

Brigette, you will need a connector to attach this to the big propane tank. This has the male and female ends of a small propane canister and is in a sense just an extension hose for the small canisters. I use mine for camping and had to buy a tree that hooks to my big tank and then I can use the hose off of that tree.

Yes, it needs an adapter. look at the video of the adapter on this link, Camco 59943 Propane Cylinder Adapter - Soft Nose POL x 1"- 20 Male Throwaway Cylinder Thread

I bought the GrillPro 11051 Universal Fit Propane Tank Adapter to use with the Brinkmann gauge in Feb 2014 and have been using them together on my 100 gall tank since then.

It connectors to the propane tank by inter threads. So I used the local grocery stores propane tanks and it works well. I am very please with this purchase.

Yes, you can attach a regular propane tank. It comes with a hose and regulator. I have been using it for several years with zero problems. Very good stove.

If you have the same quick connect that Mr. Heater uses on there heaters it will work. Your heater should use the same psi as all propane burners and heaters use. If you do not have the same quick connect there are an abundance of connectors out there. Just make sure you buy a hose that is regulated at the tank.

Don't know since I use my only with a standard propane tank for my gas grill. I'd check with the manufacturer first.

Yes it does, if your hooking it to a dearborn/propane heater then you will probably also need brass adapter. I found that at ACE hardware but Home Depot may have it too.

I bought an adapter for LP and never attached it. I does require drilling on the carb. FYI when I bought my Generator it was manufactured 3 years before I got it. Not as new as I thought it was.

I installed this adapter on a "T" to connect my Coleman grill from one of my Rv tanks. I always run the other tank to the trailer for the stove, furnace, and and the refrigerator since you can only run propane from one tank at a time to the Rv. It seems to provide enough gas pressure for grilling. Of course my grill has a pressure regular. I guess it would depend on your usage. Hope this answers your question.

No, you will need an adapter -- something along the lines of http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001H9K7WY to adapt the propane tank connection to 1/4" NPT.

I run my 7500 watt gen set on natural gas. One time I did try using propane just to see how it would work with a 20 pound tank and it seemed to do well. Don't remember what the size of the hose but I think it was 3/8 inch.

Yes it does. It has a special end to attach to the generator. The other end has the standard propane tank attachment.
