AUTOMATIC GAS REGULATOR
All models are equipped with an automatic gas regulator. Both tanks
are connected to this regulator
When the gas is turned on it is drawn from only one tank at a time.
When the tank being used is depleted the regulator automatically
switches to the full tank. An indicator in the regulator knob points
toward the tank that was being used to give you a visual reminder
when one tank is empty.
Operation
Make sure there is propane in both cylinders before you start. Rotate
the black lever on the top front side of the regulator toward the
cylinder you want to use first. This will be the “service” cylinder and
the other will be the “reserve” cylinder. Slowly open both tank
valves completely, then close about 1/4 turn. This will allow you to
easily check to see if valves are open or closed. The indicator on the
top of the regulator will turn bright green. The indicator color will
stay green as long as there is fuel coming from the service side. When the service cylinder empties, the
regulator will start drawing from the reserve cylinder providing an uninterrupted fuel flow to the system.
When it switches over, the indicator color changes from green to red. This red color indicates that the
service cylinder is empty and needs to be filled.
Now disconnect the cylinder and have it refilled. After filling, reconnect the pig- tail and slowly open the
cylinder valve. The full cylinder now becomes the reserve.
LPG BOTTLES
The following step-by-step procedure gives you the proper method of removing and installing these bottles:
1. Rotate the black lever all the way over towards the reserve cylinder. The indicator will turn green and the
reserve cylinder becomes the service cylinder. Now shut off the cylinder valve on the empty cylinder.
2. Disconnect the green swivel nut from the cylinder valve at the bottle to be removed. (This fitting has a
common right hand thread and turns in the same direction to most threaded fittings.)
3. Turn the large clamping "T"' handle counterclockwise until the hold down bracket is loose enough to
remove the bottle. If your trailer is equipped with a gas bottle cover the "T"' handle must be removed, and
then remove the cover before removing the bottle.
DO NOT REMOVE THE CENTER HOLD DOWN ROD!
To Install
1. Place the bottle in position on the "A” frame and bottle cross member so that it rests on the upper collar
of both bottles with the collar rims engaged in the grooves on the underside of the bracket. If your trailer is
equipped with a gas bottle cover it should be positioned over the bottles next. Make sure the hold down rod
projects up through the hole in the shroud center bracket.
2. Replace the "T" handle and tighten down until the bottles are held firmly in place.
3. Hand-tighten the green nylon swivel nut onto the tank valve outlet.
4. Turn on gas shut off valves and test all fittings with a soap suds or detergent solution and watch for
bubbles.
