My adjustment screw sets on top of my demand regulator where the line to the engine starts from.
The first generator I converted doesn't have the primer button and often I will start it on gasoline and then switch it to propane. I have a RPM gauge on mine and once I have it warmed up and a load on it, I will adjust the adjustment screw to get 3,600 RPMs on the gauge. This gives me close to correct voltage.
