Main Supply Hose – Low Pressure
The main supply hose will be attached from the regulator to the
brass manifold fitting in the frame of the coach. The swivel brass
nut on the main hose will be your final attachment.
There are several things to remember each time the container is
removed:
1. Be sure ALL fittings are tight. Always use two wrenches for
brass connections.
2. Be sure ALL connections are tested for leakage.
3. Open the main valve slowly to avoid a fast rush of propane to
flow-limiting device causing propane “freeze”.
4. Listen carefully – a “hissing” sound longer than one second may
indicate a propane leak. Close valve and search for leak.
Should you experience a propane “freeze-
up”, close the main valve and wait 15
minutes before trying again. Keep the
container valve (s) closed when traveling.
Some states prohibit traveling with the
propane container valves open, especially in underground tunnels
on expressways.
Operation
After the camper is completely set up and you are prepared for
camping enjoyment, follow these steps for propane operation.
1. Be sure ALL burner valves, controls, and pilot light valves are
closed.
2. Open main valve on propane container slowly to avoid a fast
rush through excess flow valve causing “propane freeze”.
3. Listen carefully as propane begins to flow. If a “hissing” sound
is heard for more than one or two seconds, close valve and
search for a potential leak.
