268 | Section 7 LP-Gas System ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------- Monarch SE 2004
• Manually open the primary shut-off valve located on the LP-Gas tank.
• Turn off the primary valve on the LP-Gas tank when the tank is being
filled, in between trips and when in storage.
• Hand-tighten the primary valve only. Do not use a wrench or pliers,
as this will over-tighten the valve. The primary valve is designed to be
closed by hand, over-tightening may permanently damage the valve
seat.
Exterior Gas Line Hook-Up Prep:
An auxiliary remote LP-Gas hook-up is for
external LP-Gas accessories and is to be used
for external components only. For safety,
only approved LP-Gas quick disconnect
fitting and flexible hose should be used to
connect external accessories to the remote
hook-up. A LP-Gas Quick Disconnect Fitting
should be installed by a qualified agency as
defined in the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA (Fire) 54-02) code.
NOTE: Every time the remote
hook-up is used, check for gas
leaks on all connections. If a leak
is detected, turn the primary valve
off at the LP tank. Contact a
qualified service center for service
repairs.
