LIQUID PROPANE (LP) GAS TAN K
The Wayfarer is equipped with an ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers)
approved propane gas (LP) tank which is equipped with an automatic pressure regulator.
(Figure 3 9 .1) This tank contains liquid petroleum fuel under high pressure.
A propane (LP) gas distribution system distributes the gas to those appliances using such in the
motorhome. The "heart" of this propane (LP) gas distribution system is the regulator and it
should only be adjusted and serviced by a qualified service technician. Most of the problems
encountered in lighting the pilot lights of those appliances are caused by regulator miss
adjustments.
The major component of the propane (LP) gas supply is a pipe which runs underneath the
motorhome floor. The various propane (LP) gas appliances are connected by a rubber supply
line.
As noted earlier in this manual, should any of the secondary tubings develop a leak, do not
attempt to splice any of the lines. Instead, have a qualified service technician run a new length
of tubing to the appliance of concern and have the lines leak tested before placing it in normal
operation.
To remove, repair or replace any propane (LP) gas operated appliance, always close the main
gas valve at the propane (LP) gas tank.
WARNING:
When the motorhome is not being used, the main propane (LP) gas
valve must be turned "OFF". Also turn "OFF" the main valve when the propane (LP)
gas tank is to be refueled to avoid the possibility ignition fuel fumes by the pilot
lights.
All gas valves on the propane (LP) gas operated appliances with Direct Spark
Ignition (DSI) should also be in the "OFF" position during refueling and/or
maintenance operations.
DO NOT store propane (LP) gas, diesel fuel, regular fuel, butane or other
flammable liquids inside of the motorhome as these represent a very real fire
hazard and a threat to life.
