When an LP gas tank gets low, sometimes there is a concentration of garlic-like odor,
which may be mistaken for a gas leak. After a change over to a full tank, the odor usually
will disappear. If not, turn off the LP gas containers and have the system checked by a
qualified technician.

WARNING: DO NOT use tools to open or close the tank valve. HAND
TIGHTEN ONLY. The use of tools to tighten the tank valve creates the
potential to overtighten the valve. This could cause damage to the interior
seals on the tank valve seat. If damage occurs, you will not be able to close
the tank properly, creating a false sense of security that the LP gas tank is
shut off. Consult with your independent, authorized dealer or a qualified
LP gas dealer if you have further questions.

DANGER: Never smoke during the filling of LP gas tanks. Keep the RV
away from the immediate filling area when possible or extinguish all gas
pilot lights. Failure to follow this safety rule could lead to death or serious
injury from fire or explosion.
OPD OVERFILL PROTECTION
Your LP gas container(s) are equipped with Type 1 ACME LP Gas Connections. No tools
are required to tighten or loosen the connections. They are designed so gas will not flow
from the container unless the correct connection is made.
Make sure you read, understand and follow the information supplied with your unit that is
relevant to the LP gas container connections for your safety and convenience of use of the
OPD overfill protection.
The position of the LP gas container(s) and the hoses are critical to proper operation and
gas flow. Follow these instructions to make sure your LP gas container(s) are connected
properly.
DUAL CYLINDER ASSEMBLY WITH BOTTLE RACK
ON A-FRAME OR FRONT TRUNK
The containers must be positioned in the tray with the
valves pointing away from the trailer. The wing nut is
placed on the threaded rod to hold the cross bar down and
orient the containers. The regulator bracket is held in
position by the threaded rod and centers the regulator
between the two cylinders which are secured at the base on
the tray.
1. Connect the 3/8” low-pressure hose to the outlet of
the two-stage regulator.
2. Place the cylinders on the bracket provided on the
A-frame and secure them so the outlet of the cylinder valves point away from the
front of the trailer.
3. Using the threaded center rod, position the regulator bracket. This centers the
regulator between the two cylinders as they are secured to the base tray.
4. Attach the1/4” inverted flare x 11” Type-1 pigtail hose to the regulator inlet and the
right hand swivel nut to the cylinder valve.
