FILLING PRACTICES
Any propane (LP) gas tank associated with the motorhome should never be filled to more than
80% of the total capacity.
Filling should always be done only when the motorhome is leveled. If
the motorhome is not level, the tank may be overfilled (i.e., more than 80% of capacity). This
could subject the motorhome to possible fire or explosion from resultant uncontrolled gas flows.
LP GAS REGULATOR
As noted earlier in this owner's manual, the propane (LP) gas regulator (Figure 39.1) is the
"heart" of the propane (LP) gas distribution system. This regulator reduces and controls the
pressure of the gas on the outlet end to provide a constant supply of gas at a constant pressure to
the gas operated appliances.
The regulator has a vent to relieve excess pressure on the inlet side of the regulator. Should
excess pressure develop in the gas tank and connecting gas line to the regulator inlet. The vent
would normally release the excess propane (LP) gas to the atmosphere until the over
pressurization condition is eliminated.
The vent should be regularly checked to assure that it is not clogged or obstructed.
(This should
be done by a qualified service technician).
If the vent is blocked from normal operation,
component or system failure may occur.
If a periodic visual inspection indicates any sign of corrosion or degradation, immediately contact
a qualified service technician for repairs on the regulator and to inspect the rest of the propane
(LP) gas system.
DO NOT operate the propane (LP) gas system with any faulty component in
place.
WARNING:
If a propane (LP) gas leak is detected or suspected, turn "OFF" the
main propane gas (LP) valve and keep the propane (LP) gas system "OFF until the
system is inspected by a qualified service technician. Do not delay in addressing any
possible propane (LP) gas leaks with appropriate service because of the inherent
hazards to safety.
