If it is determined that the Winntec Model 6020 LP Regulator must be removed and replaced in accordance with this recall, you must perform the following:

(1) Close the LP bottles and unscrew the pigtails from the LP bottles.

(2) Remove the regulator from the unit.

(3) Attach the new regulator to the unit.

c. Turning off both LP tanks.
d. Bleeding the system down to 8โ€ water column.
e. To pass a Drop Pressure Test, the system must hold 8โ€ water column for a minimum of 3 minutes.

(7) Ensure system operating pressure is at 11โ€ (+-0.5โ€) water column with 50% load, and lockout pressure does not exceed 14โ€ water column.

Please note that vice grips, a universal screwdriver, and yellow gas line PTFE thread seal tape are required to perform this recall.
