H. Exhaust Kit Installation
Fifth-wheel Exhaust Assembly Install Configuration:
H.13 Connect horizontal portion of Exhaust pipe to Exhaust Support Strap utilizing the
Exhaust Support Strap Clamp. See Exhibits 6, 7, 8 and 9.
• Tighten bolts on Support Strap Clamp.
• Exhaust assembly (exhaust pipes, downpipes and flanges) must be connected to
horizontal portion of Exhaust Pipe to prevent Exhaust Pipe from being moved or
pushed back under edge of trailer skirting. See Exhibits 6, 7, 8 and 9.
H.14 Exhaust Assembly must be installed with a minimum clearance of 304.8 mm
(12") from any fuel system component.
H.15 Use Self-tapping screw to secure the exhaust support strap to a strong and suitable,
permanent member of RV frame. See Exhibit 6.
Bumper-Pull Exhaust Assembly Install Configuration:
H.16 Depending on the bumper-pull model, the trailer skirt may need to be trimmed out
around the Exhaust Pipe to ensure proper minimum clearance distances.
• If skirting is trimmed, flexible rubber molding should be installed on the rough edge
of the trimmed metal to prevent the Exhaust Support Strap from being damaged by
vibration against the trailer skirting. See Exhibit 9.
• When possible, downpipe should be used or omitted as necessary to maintain a
clearance minimum of 76.2 mm or (3") from bottom of bumper-pull skirting to top
of Exhaust Pipe. See Exhibit 9.
H.17 Use Self-tapping screw to secure the exhaust support strap to a strong and suitable,
permanent member of RV frame. See Exhibits 6 and 9.
