This article is taken from the Winnebago Rialta Owners web site with the permission of the site owner. It 
has been modified to remove motorhome-oriented terminology, and insert TrailManor-oriented 
terminology. The scattered parts have been re-united and organized. And the Table of Contents has been 
added.  

DISCLAIMER AND WARNING This article deals with disassembly, repair, and reassembly of a 
propane burning appliance. Propane is dangerous, and nothing in this article mitigates that danger. 
It is recommended that unless you are well-trained in propane burning appliances, you engage a 
certified repair technician to perform the work described herein.
