SECTION 4
PROPANE SYSTEM
The position of the propane container(s) and
the hoses are critical to proper operation and
propane flow. Generally, the propane
cylinders are located in the front, off-door side
compartment. Follow these instructions to
make sure your propane container(s) are
connected properly.
Fig. 4.5 Typical propane cylinder location
□
Connect the 3/8” low-pressure hose to
the outlet of the two-stage regulator.
□
Place the cylinder on the bracket in the
recess compartment or housing and
secure both propane cylinders so the
outlets of the cylinder valves are facing
the “sidewalls” of the compartment or
housing (opposite of each other).
□
Mount the regulator on the center back
wall of the compartment or housing so
the vent is pointed downward.
□
Attach the 1/4” inverted flare x 18” Type-
1 pigtail hose to the regulator inlet and
the right hand swivel nut to the cylinder
valve.
□
Attach the main supply hose from the
regulator to the brass manifold fitting in
the frame of the RV. The swivel brass nut
on the main hose will be your final
attachment.

Following are important steps to follow each
time a propane container is replaced:
□
Check ALL the propane system fittings to
make sure they are tightened properly.
□
Leak test the propane system.
□
Open the main valve slowly to avoid a
fast rush of propane to the excess flow
valve causing propane freeze up. If you
experience a propane “freeze-up,” close
the main valve and wait at least 15
minutes before trying again. Refer to the
regulator manufacturer’s information for
further assistance.
□
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.
□
Replace all protective covers and caps
on the propane system. Make sure the
valve is closed and the compartment
door is securely latched.
Propane container overfill
Never
overfill your propane container above
the liquid capacity indicated on the container.
If a container is overfilled, liquid gas may flow
through the gas regulator, causing it to freeze
and/or introduce dangerous excessive gas
pressure into the lines. In addition, an
overfilled container placed in hot sunlight may
expel excessive gas through the relief valve
and be susceptible to ignition by any nearby
open flame or spark.
If you do overfill the propane container,
contact your dealer or a qualified propane
technician for assistance immediately. Do not
attempt to service a propane container overfill
yourself.
Inspection and 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.
