Maintenance
Propane gas is normally non-corrosive - you need not worry about the inside of
your container. However, the outside should be kept free from rust by a periodic
coat of paint in a light reflective color. Rust, scratches and/or dents can affect the
safety of the cylinder. Inspect the cylinder at regular intervals.
If there is a problem, have it evaluated by a qualified technician and discard it.
DOT requires that a visual inspection be made prior to each filling.
Any cylinder that has been exposed to fire, leaks or seems damaged should not
be refilled.
Do not attempt to repair any containers, container valves, regulator or appliances
by yourself. Use only trained certified propane gas service technicians to perform
repairs.
Propane cylinder recertification
If you have an older RV you should know that, according to Federal law, DOT
cylinders may only be used for 12 years after their manufacture date (the number
of years for certification may vary in your area). After that, the cylinders must be
"recertified" which provides another five years of use.
The cylinders can be recertified every five years thereafter. Federal DOT
(Department of Transportation) regulations require periodic inspections and re-
qualifications of the propane cylinders. DO NOT USE damaged or rusted
containers.
Verify with your local propane dealer that all required inspections and certifications
have been completed on the propane cylinder within the correct time period before
refilling the cylinder.
Have the LP system checked for leakage each time a cylinder is refilled or after
any part of the propane system has been disconnected.

Single stage regulator
Some models are equipped with a single stage regulator.
Two stage regulator
The two-stage regulator has the only moving components in the propane system.
Its sole function is to reduce the pressure from the propane containers to a safe
and consistent low operating pressure. The first stage reduces the container
pressure to 10-13 lbs. The second stage reduces the 10-13 lbs. of pressure further
to an operating pressure of 11” W.C. (water column) or 6.35 oz. of outlet pressure
to your appliances.
The second stage is adjustable and will need to be adjusted by your dealer or
qualified propane service technician for optimum performance (this adjustment
should always be made with a properly calibrated manometer).
WARNING
Propane regulators must always be installed with the regulator vent facing
downward. Regulators that are not located in baggage compartments have
been equipped with a protective cover. Make sure the regulator vent faces
downward and (if applicable) the cover is in place to minimize vent blockage
that could result in excessive gas pressure causing fire or explosion.
