system components
Hoses
The hoses used in your Propane system meet
stringent requirements, and are rated to with-
stand many times the pressures encountered in
the system . Check the hoses for weather check-
ing or other signs of deterioration every time
you have the Propane tank filled or serviced.
When you replace hoses, be sure that replace-
ments are properly rated and approved for RV
use .
Propane Regulator
The two-stage regulator produces approximately
11 inches of water column (less than 0 .5 psi) to
serve your appliances . Be sure the regulator vent
stays clean and free from obstructions .
The regulator is mounted so that the vent is
facing downward and is protected by a cover .
Be sure the cover is on at all times . If the vent
becomes clogged, it can be cleaned with a tooth-
brush. If corrosion is evident, contact a qualified
Propane service technician for assistance .
Accessory Propane Supply
(If
equipped)
The accessory Propane supply device and hose
is intended for outdoor use only . Consult the
instructions provided by the device manufac-
turer for information concerning proper connec-
tion and usage .

6. Turn off Propane main valve before filling
Propane container or entering an Propane bulk plant
or motor fuel service station. Turn off all pilot lights
and appliances individually before refueling of motor
fuel tanks and/or Propane containers. When not indi-
vidually turned off, automatic ignition appliances may
continue to spark when Propane is turned off at the
container.
7. Do not fill Propane containers to more than
80% capacity. Overfilling can result in uncontrolled
Propane flow which can cause fire and explosion.
A properly filled container holds about 80% of its
volume as liquid.
faIlure to comply could
result In death or serIous InJury .
8. Propane regulators must always be installed with
the regulator vent facing downward. Regulators that
are not in compartments have been equipped with a
protective cover. Make sure that the regulator vent
faces downward and that the cover is kept in place
to minimize vent blockage that could result in exces-
sive Propane pressure causing fire or explosion.
9. Do not use a wrench or pliers to close the tank
shut-off valve. This valve is designed to be closed by
hand. If a tool is required, the valve probably needs
repair or replacement.
10. If you do not have the special tools and training
necessary, do not attempt to repair Propane system
components.
11. Motor homes stored in enclosed garages must
be well ventilated.
12. Do not modify or alter the Propane plumbing
system .
13. If any appliance or piping has been serviced,
ensure that a system leak check has been
performed by a trained technician. This should be
verified before taking delivery of the unit.
!
warnIng
Do not attempt to adjust the regulator. It has been
preset by the regulator manufacturer. If any adjust-
ment is required, it must be made by a qualified
Propane service tech nician using special equipment .
!
warnIng
Propane cylinders shall not be placed or stored
inside the vehicle. Propane cylinders are equipped
with safety devices that relieve excessive pressure
by discharging Propane to the atmosphere.
faIlure to comply could result In
death or serIous InJury.
