WARNING: Do not fill LP Gas tank(s) to more than 80 percent of capacity.
Overfilling the LP gas container can result in uncontrolled gas flow which may cause a
fire or an explosion. A properly filled container will contain approximately 80 percent
of its volume as liquid LP gas.
y
WARNING: LP gas containers must not be placed or stored inside the vehicle. LP gas
containers are equipped with safety devices that relieve excess pressure by
discharging gas into the atmosphere.
y
WARNING: Do not bring or store LP gas containers, gasoline or other flammable
liquids inside the recreation vehicle. Disregarding this warning may result in fires or
explosions.
y
WARNING: Never smoke while filling the LP tanks. Extinguish all gas pilot lights
while filling the LP Gas tank.
When an LP tank is low, occasionally there is a concentration of garlic-like odor which may be
mistaken for a gas leak. After a change over to a full tank, the odor usually will disappear. If not,
turn off the valve of the LP container and have the system checked by a qualified technician.

CAUTION: Remember - POL adapters and fittings have left hand threads.
POL ADAPTER AND LOW PRESSURE
Propane leaves the container through a POL adapter (Fig. 4-27E) with an excess flow valve built
into adaptor, which is attached to the regulator. No sealant is required on a brass to brass
connection. The excess flow valve provides a large volume of propane to escape from the bottle
should there be a breakage between the container and regulator.
REGULATOR
The regulator (Fig. 4-27F) is the heart of your LP gas system and has internal moving parts. Its
function is to reduce high and varied pressure from the LP container to a safe and consistent low
pressure. The inlet valve is the first stage, reducing container pressure to ten to thirteen pounds.
The second stage will reduce the gas from ten pounds to an operating pressure of 11" W.C. (water
column) or 6.35 oz. of outlet pressure to the motorhome system. The second stage is adjustable and
will need to be adjusted for precise operation. DO NOT attempt to adjust regulator. Have an
authorized and competent technician make any adjustments. We suggest this normal maintenance
procedure be performed once per year.
