4. If a leak is detected, tighten the connection using two open-end
wrenches until the bubbles stop forming. Do not over-tighten
and do not use excessive force. If the leak persists, contact a
repair and maintenance technician certified in propane gas.
DO NOT use tools to tighten the tank's service valves.
5. Check the propane gas pipes where contact with the frame
may have caused cracks or damage due to vibrations or shocks
from driving on the road.
Note:
Helio does not recommend and strongly advises against anyone other
than a repair and maintenance technician certified in propane gas
from making the necessary repairs.
Propane gas is naturally odourless. The ethanethiol additive creates
an odour of garlic. The addition of this chemical odor helps detect
leaks.
Never use a different propane gas tank from the one included
in your trailer. If you have to replace the tank, check with your
dealer for the appropriate specifications and tank replacement
procedure. Keep the tank firmly secured in its appropriate position.
Use all the given parts to ensure adequate position and support.
Keep the tank's service valve accessible at all times. In an
emergency, it may be necessary to access the service valve quickly
and cut the gas supply.
