The hoses, pipes, tubes and fittings used in
your propane system are designed to
withstand pressures exceeding those of the
propane system. However, because
environment and time can both contribute to
the deterioration of these components, they
must be inspected for wear at regular
intervals.
Be sure to inspect the hose before each
season and when having the tank refilled.
Look for signs of deterioration such as cracks
or loss of flexibility. When replacing the hose
or other propane components, make sure to
always replace them with components of the
same type and rating (check with your
dealer).
Fittings are used to connect the various
system components to each other. The P.O.L.
fitting at the end of the propane supply hose is
made of brass so that pipe sealants are not
necessary to prevent leaking. It also has a
left-handed thread, which means that it is
turned clockwise to remove, and counter-
clockwise to tighten. The P.O.L. fitting has
been designed to help restrict the flow of LP
gas in the event of a regulator failure or hose
malfunction.

After the park trailer is completely set up and
you are prepared for camping enjoyment, use
the following steps for propane operation:
1. Close ALL burner valves, controls and
pilot light valves.
2. Open the main valve in the propane
container slowly to avoid a fast rush of
propane vapor through the excess flow
valve causing propane “freeze-up.” Should
you experience propane “freeze-up,” close
the main valve and wait 15 minutes before
trying again.
3. Listen carefully as propane begins to flow.
If a hissing noise is heard for more than
one or two seconds, close the main valve
and contact your dealer to have the
propane system tested.
4. Light the appliances as needed and
directed in the appropriate appliance
manufacturer’s owner manual located in
the Goodie Bag.
Make sure that you read and fully understand
ALL safety requirements for handling and
operation of the propane system. The Goodie
Bag contains OEM operator’s manuals for the
various appliances hooked to your propane
system. The propane system provides added
benefits to your camping enjoyment; however,
it must be handled with care. If you have any
questions or concerns, consult with your
dealer and/or the specific OEM.
If you have double cylinders on your park
trailer, use only one at a time. Otherwise, the
propane supply will be drawn equally from
both cylinders until the supply has been totally
exhausted. Using one cylinder until it is
empty, then using the second cylinder will
allow you to fill the empty cylinder at your
convenience without running totally out of
propane.
If flooding is predicted for your area, shut OFF
each propane cylinder valve before the water
rises. If the propane system has been
flooded, do not turn it back ON until it has
been checked by your dealer or a qualified
propane service technician.

It is important to remember that (if applicable)
your furnace, refrigerator, water heater and
range all may use propane to operate. Each
has a different BTU rating, and you will need
to consider them to determine how long your
propane supply will last. Most park trailer gas
appliances are operated intermittently.
Propane consumption depends on individual
use of appliances and the length of time
Do not use portable fuel-burning
equipment, including wood and charcoal
grills and stoves, inside the park trailer.
The use of these items inside a park trailer
may cause fires or asphyxiation (inability to
breathe).
