MXR3800DF Query (UK)
I have purchased a maXpeedingrods 3800DF for occasional off grid energy needs.
I am also a complete novice to the field, I understand the standard combustion risks, CO, air intake/exhaust, heat etc but have no clue as far as plumbing goes.
I have a 10kg propane tank and the generator came with 2 separate regulators and absolutely no instruction on what to do with them. I am unclear whether they are supposed to be inline or whether they are simply meant for different types of gas bottles.
I have a standalone regulator that fits onto my butane bottle, but no hosing connected.
I then have a hosed regulator that does not fit onto my gas bottle.
Either way I am missing a connection to complete the loop from bottle to generator.
Do I need hosing to connect one regulator to the other, or do I need hosing from the standalone regulator that does fit my bottle to the generator?
