The main shut off valve must be kept closed at
all times unless you are using the propane
system or filling the propane tank. When the
tank is disconnected from the hose, install the
valve cover that is attached so the tank. This is
required by the National Fire Protection
Agency (NFPA), other applicable local codes
and for your own safety.
Close the propane tank main shut off valve by
hand tightening only. Use of tools creates a
potential to over tighten the valve (damaging
the interior seals on the cylinder valve seat). If
this type of damage occurs, the cylinder will
not close properly and create a false sense of
security. The following label should be kept
permanently affixed to your RV.
Servicing or filling
Have the RV checked for leaks at the
connections on the propane system soon after
the purchase and the initial filling of each
propane tank. When you have a new tank filled
for the first time, make sure your propane
supplier purges your new tank of trapped air.
Otherwise, an improper mixture of gas and air
will make it impossible to light your propane
appliances.
When a propane tank is low, occasionally
there may be a concentration of an onion or
garlic-like odor, which can be mistaken for a
propane leak. After the propane tank has been
refueled, the odor will usually disappear. If not,
turn OFF each propane tank shut off valve and
have the propane system inspected by your
RV dealer or a qualified propane service
representative.
No one should be inside or and only the
qualified propane service technician should be
near the RV while the propane tank is being
filled. The new propane tank must be carefully
purged for best performance and must
NEVER
BE OVERFILLED.
The following label should
be kept permanently affixed to your RV
Before filling your propane tank, make sure
that the propane technician is qualified, knows
and understands proper inspection and safety
procedures.
Main Supply Hose – Low Pressure
Attach the main supply hose from the regulator
to the brass manifold fitting in the frame of the
motorhome. The swivel brass nut on the main
hose will be your final attachment. Several
things to remember each time the propane
tank is removed:
1. Check that ALL fittings are tight.
2. Check that ALL connections are tested
with leak solution. Consult with your RV
dealer or propane service personnel.
3. Open the main valve slowly to avoid a fast
rush of propane to excess flow valve
causing propane freeze up. If you
experience a propane “freeze-up,” close
the main valve and wait at least fifteen (15)
