To install:
1 . Place the bottle in position on the "A"
frame and bottle crossmember so that the
lower collar fits inside the circular bracket
welded to the "A" frame. The open gap in
the upper collar faces forward. Reattach
rubber gas lines.
2. Place the cast aluminum hold down bracket
in a position so that it rests on the upper
collar of both bottles with the collar rims
engaged in the grooves on the underside of
the bracket. If your trailer is equipped with
an optional Gas Bottle Protective Shroud, it
should be positioned over the bottles next.
Make sure the Hold Down Rod projects up
through the hole in shroud center bracket.
3. Replace the "T" handle and tighten down
until the bottles are held firrrly in place.
4. Turn on gas shut-off valves and test all
fittings with a soap suds or detergent
solution and watch for bubbles.
If you have allowed both tanks to run out, air
may have gotten into the lines. In this event, the
air must be forced out through the lines by gas
pressure before you will be able to light the
pilots. Hold a match to the pilot of the
appliance closest to the tanks until it lights and
stays lit. Then move to the next closest, etc.
For more complete appliance operating
instructions, refer to page 71 -82.
Close the shutoff valves on the gas tanks
if you smell LP-gas, or if appliance pilot
light fails to stay on. Contact an LP gas
company service man to correct the problem.
Additional information on the LPG system is
available in the Service Manual.
