LPG Tanks
The following procedure outlines the proper method of
removing and installing LPG bottles:
1 Turn the knob on your automatic regulator until
the arrow points to the tank opposite the one to be
removed Shut off the gas valve on the tank to be
removed
2 Disconnect the rubber gas line at the tank to be
removed. (The green plastic fitting is a right-hand
thread and no tools should be used )
3 Turn the large clamping T-handle counterclockwise
until the hold-down bracket is loosened enough
to be able to remove the tank If your trailer is
equipped with a gas tank cover, the T-handle must
be removed, and then the cover removed before
removing the bottle
WARNING
Do not remove the center hold-down rod.
LPG Tank Installation:
1 Place the tanks in position on the A-frame and
tank cross-member so that it rests on the upper
collar of both tanks with the collar rims engaged
in the grooves on the underside of the bracket If
your trailer is equipped with a tank cover, it should
be positioned over the tanks 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
tanks are held firmly in place.
3 Test fittings with liquid soap free of ammonia or
chlorine, or products deigned for testing, such as
Snoop® liquid leak detector.
If you have allowed both tanks to run out, air may have
gotten into the lines In this event, the air must be
forced out through the lines by gas pressure before you
will be able to light the pilots Hold a match to the pilot
of the appliance closest to the tanks until it lights and
stays lit Then move to the next-closest appliance, etc
WARNING
Your LPG tanks must be filled as directed by the
tank manufacturer. Instructions are located on a
decal near the fill valve. The decal must not be
defaced.
WARNING
The LPG tanks are securely mounted on the front
A-frame of your trailer. If these tanks must be
removed for service or replacement, it is important
that they be reinstalled correctly in order to prevent
any possibility of their falling off or becoming
dislodged during travel.
Use only the LPG tanks furnished with your trailer.
If replacement is required, it must be a bottle of the
same size and design.
Basic Rules For LPG Safety
WARNING
Do not store LPG tanks within a vehicle. LPG
tanks are equipped with safety devices that vent
gas should the pressure become excessive.
WARNING
Do not use cooking appliances for comfort
heating. Cooking appliances need fresh air for safe
operation. Before operation, open an overhead
vent or turn on an exhaust fan and open a window.
A warning label is displayed in the cooking area
reminding you to provide an adequate supply of fresh
air for combustion The amount of oxygen supply in a
trailer is limited due to its compact design When using
the cooking appliances, proper ventilation will prevent
dangers of asphyxiation It is especially important that
cooking appliances not be used for comfort heating
as the danger of asphyxiation is greater when the
appliance is used for long periods of time
WARNING
Portable fuel burning equipment, including wood
and charcoal grills and stoves, shall not be used
inside the recreational vehicle. The use of this
equipment inside the recreational vehicle may
cause fires or asphyxiation.
