WARNING
11. Do not use a wrench
or
pliers to close the tank shut-off valve.
This valve is designed to be closed leak tight by hand. If a tool is
required to stop a
leak, the valve probably needs repair or
replacement.
12. If you do not have the special tools and training necessary, do
not attempt to repair or modify
LP
gas system components.
13.
Always think safety.
The hoses used in your LP gas system meet
UL
or CSA
requirements. Although they are designed for efficient and
trouble free use, they can be damaged by sunlight and impu-
rities in the
air.
The average life
of
LP hoses is two to three
years. Check the hoses for signs
of
deterioration every time
you have the gas tank filled or serviced. When you replace
hoses, be sure that replacements are properly rated and
approved for
RV
use.
The regulator is the heart
of
the LP gas system.
It
reduces the
high pressure
of
the gas in the tank down to the pressure that
the appliances require. This pressure reduction occurs in two
stages for safety and efficiency.
