The indicator on top of the regulator will turn bright green. When the
cylinder becomes empty the indicator will change to bright orange or
red. Now turn the lever to the side of the full bottle and the green
signal will return. You may now remove the empty bottle to have it
refilled without interrupting the flow from the full bottle. After filling
the cylinder, connect the pigtail hose and slowly open the bottle
valve. Do not forget to check for leakage each time you refill
cylinder or disconnect any part on the propane system.
High Pressure Hoses with Acme Connectors
Propane leaves the container through a hose with an ACME
connector attached to the bottle, also having a “flow-limiting device”,
designed to sense excessive flow. Two functions from this device:
(1) Should the container valve be opened too quickly, this device
can close, stopping the flow of propane. (2) Should there be a
rupture in any propane line, it will reduce the flow to a maximum of
10 (SCFH) Standard Cubic Feet per Hour.
The valve will equalize normal flow in about 5 seconds, generally not
noticeable.
Main Supply Hose – Low Pressure
The main supply hose will be attached
from the regulator to the brass manifold
fitting in the frame of the coach. The
swivel brass nut on the main hose will be
your final attachment.
Should you experience a gas “freeze-up”, close the main valve and
wait 15 minutes before trying again.
Keep the container valve (s) closed when traveling. Some states
prohibit traveling with the propane container valves open, especially
in underground tunnels on expressways.
Operation
After the camper is completely set up and you are prepared for
camping enjoyment, follow these steps for propane operation.
1. Be sure ALL burner valves, controls, and pilot light valves are
closed.
2. Open main valve on propane container slowly to avoid a fast
rush through excess flow valve causing “ propane freeze”.
