A warning label has been located near the LP gas container. This label reads:
THIS GAS PIPING SYSTEM IS DESIGNED FOR USE OF
LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GAS ONLY. DO NOT CONNECT
NATURAL GAS TO THIS SYSTEM. DO NOT FILL
CONTAINER(S) TO MORE THAN 80 PERCENT OF CAPACITY.
Securely cap inlet(s) when not connected for use. After turning
on gas, except after normal container replacement, test gas
piping and connections to appliances for leakage with soapy
water or bubble solution. Do not use products that contain

Main Supply Hose

The main supply hose will be attached from regulator to brass manifold fitting in frame
of coach. Swivel brass nut on main hose will be your final attachment. There are several
things to remember each time the container is removed:
1. Check that ALL fittings are tight.
2. Ensure that ALL connections are tested with leak solution.
3. Open main valve slowly to avoid fast rush of gas to excess flow valve causing gas
freeze up.
4. Listen carefully - a "hissing" sound longer than 1 second may indicate a gas leak.
Close valve and search for leak.
