PROPANE GAS FUEL SYSTEM
DANGER: LP (PROPANE) GAS IS HIGHLY EXPLO¬
SIVE. THE GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR AND
TENDS TO SEHLE IN LOW AREAS, WHERE EVEN
THE SLIGHTEST SPARK CAN IGNITE IT AND
CAUSE AND EXPLOSION. ONLY COMPETENT,
QUALIFIED PERSONS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO
INSTALL, TEST, ADJUST OR SERVICE AN LP GAS
FUEL SYSTEM. INSTALL THE OPTIONAL FUEL
SYSTEM IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE
CODES, STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS. AFTER
THE INSTALLATION, DO NOTHING THAT MIGHT
RENDER THE SYSTEM IN NON-COMPLIANCE
WITH APPLICABLE CODES AND STANDARDS.
The LP powered range of Gensets are fitted with non-
adjustable factory set system. These systems are
tamper-proof to meet 1997 California Air Resources
Board for Engine Emmissions.
DANGER: USE ONLY APPROVED COMPONENTS
IN THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM. ALL COMPONENTS
MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED IN ACCOR¬
DANCE WITH APPLICABLE CODES. IMPROPER
INSTALLATION OR USE OF UNAUTHORIZED COM¬
PONENTS MAY RESULT IN FIRE OR AN EXPLO¬
SION. FOLLOW APPROVED METHODS TO TEST
THE SYSTEM FOR LEAKS. NO LEAKAGE IS PER-
MIHED. DO NOT ALLOW FUEL VAPORS TO
ENTER THE VEHICLE INTERIOR.
SOME IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
When installing an LP gas system, consider seriously
the following items;
• All fittings, lines, hoses and clamps must be tight and free
of leaks. Apply a pipe sealant to threads when assem¬
bling threaded connections. This reduces the possibility
of leakage.
PARTS NOT INCLUDED IN FUEL SYSTEM
The propane fuel system does NOT include such
items as (a) gas tank, (b) gas piping, (c) fittings, (d)
valves, and (e) primary regulator, used to store the
gaseous fuel and deliver it to the gaseous fuel sole¬
noid (Figure 19).
• Test the entire fuel system for leaks, using approved test
methods.
