Section 7: Fuel & Propane System
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.
Propane Regulator
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 pro
-
pane service technician for optimum performance (this adjustment should always be made
with a properly calibrated manometer).
If the pressure is too high, it affects performance and safety; if the pressure is too low, your
appliances will not operate correctly.
If your recreation vehicle is equipped with the “automatic” two-stage regulator, with both
cylinders full of propane, turn the lever on the regulator towards the cylinder you wish to
use first. This will now be the “supply” cylinder and the other the “reserve”. Slowly open
both cylinder valves. The indicator on top of the regulator will turn bright green. When the
cylinder becomes empty, the indicator will change to bright orange. Now turn the regula-
tor lever to the side of the “reserve” cylinder and the green signal should return. You may
now remove the empty cylinder to have it refilled without interrupting the flow from the full
bottle. After filling the cylinder, connect the pigtail hose and slowly open the bottle valve.
Refer to the manufacturer’s pamphlet included in your warranty packet and follow all safety
instructions and warnings listed.
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.
Propane Use and Safety
Propane is a colorless and odorless gas that, in the liquefied state, resembles water. An odor
-
ant (usually a sulfur compound) is added as a warning agent. If you smell propane within the
vehicle, quickly and carefully perform the procedure listed on the propane system label. This
label has been placed in the vehicle near the range, for models equipped with a propane sys-
temWhen a propane container is low, there may be a concentration of an onion or garlic-like
odor, which can be mistaken for a propane gas leak. After the propane container has been
refueled, the odor will usually disappear. If not, turn off the valve(s) and have the propane
system inspected by your dealer or qualified propane service representative.
