LPG Tank Installation:

1� Place the tanks in position on the A-frame and

tank cross-member so that it rests on the upper

collar of both tanks with the collar rims engaged

in the grooves on the underside of the bracket� If

your trailer is equipped with a tank cover, it should

be positioned over the tanks next� Make sure the

hold-down rod projects up through the hole in the

shroud center bracket�

2� Replace the T-handle and tighten down until the

tanks are held firmly in place.

3� Test fittings with liquid soap free of ammonia or

chlorine, or products deigned for testing, such as

Snoop® liquid leak detector�

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 appliance, etc�

NOTICE

Use only the LPG tanks furnished with your

trailer. If replacement is required, it must be a

bottle of the same size and design.

WARNING

Your LPG tanks must be filled as directed by the

tank manufacturer. Instructions are located on a

decal near the fill valve. The decal must not be

defaced.

WARNING

The LPG tanks are securely mounted on the

front A- frame of your trailer. If these tanks must

be removed for service or replacement, it is

important that they be reinstalled correctly in

order to prevent any possibility of their falling off

or becoming dislodged during travel.
