If its like the SM LPG that dad used to have, you should shut the gas valves off every night. To start it, open the vapor valve - the top one on the tank - if its cold out, choke it a little & hit the starter. If its warm enough for the gas to vaporize, it should take right off, push the choke in all the way & you should be good to go. It seemed like once it was running, it never needed the choke again.
