Propane Gas Pressure Regulator - Removable Lp Tank - Winnebago INTENT Manual

SECTION 5 -
PROPANE GAS
DANGER
IF YOU SMELL PROPANE
1. Extinguish any open flames and all
smoking materials.
2. Shut off the propane supply at the
container valve(s) or propane supply
connection.
3. Do not touch electrical switches.
4. Open doors and other ventilating
openings.
5. Leave the area until odor clears.
6. Have the propane system checked
and leakage source corrected before
using again.
Ignition of flammable vapors could lead to
a fire or explosion and result in death or
serious injury.
• All pilot lights must be extinguished and
appliances and their ignitors turned off while
refilling the fuel tank or propane container.
• Never smoke while refilling vehicle fuel tank
or propane gas container.
• Avoid inhaling exhaust gases produced by
burned gasoline, diesel fuel, or propane gas in
items such as the range, chassis engine,
generator engine, refrigerator, furnace, and
water heater. They contain carbon monoxide,
which is an odorless, colorless, and poisonous
gas.
WARNING
Do not place propane cylinders inside the
vehicle.
Propane cylinders are equipped with
safety devices that relieve excessive
pressure by discharging propane to the
atmosphere.
Propane gas is highly flammable.
Can lead to a fire or explosion and result
in death or serious injury.
5-4
• Never use an open flame to test for propane
gas leaks. Replace all protective covers and
caps on propane system after filling. Make
sure valve is closed and door latched securely.
• Portable fuel-burning equipment, including
wood and charcoal grills and stoves, shall not
be used inside the recreational vehicle. The
use of this equipment inside the recreational
vehicle may cause fires or asphyxiation.
• Regulators are equipped with a protective
cover. Make sure that the regulator vent faces
downward and that the cover is kept in place
to minimize vent blockage, which could result
in excessive gas pressure causing fire or
explosion.
PROPANE GAS PRESSURE
REGULATOR – REMOVABLE LP
TANK
–If Equipped
Propane regulators must always be installed
with the regulator vents facing downward. For
operation, both tanks must be hooked to the
regulator.
Only your dealer or a qualified propane gas
service should remove the regulator cover for
adjustments.
WARNING
Visually inspect the pressure regulator
vent periodically for blockage by
accumulated debris or insect nests, etc.
Vent obstruction could result in excessive
pressure causing fire or explosion, which
could result in death or serious injury. If an
obstruction exists, have the regulator
serviced by a qualified service center.
NOTE: If your model is equipped with a propane
powered electrical generator, there will
be two regulators stacked one upon
another. One regulates the house
propane supply pressure, the other
regulates pressure to the generator.
