Do not connect the genset fuel supply line to any ap-
pliance fuel supply line. The genset can draw fuel
away from other appliances and cause a flame out.
To prevent the possibility of flameout, the fuel supply
system must be designed to deliver sufficient fuel
for normal operation of the genset and other ap-
pliances at the expected temperature conditions. It
may be necessary to use a separate fuel tank for the
genset if sufficient fuel cannot be supplied with a
single tank system.
WARNING
The flameout of an unvented LPG
appliance can lead to explosive accumulations
of gas inside the vehicle and the danger of se-
vere personal injury or death. Do not connect
the genset fuel supply line to any vehicle ap-
pliance supply line.
Upon completing the installation, fill the LPG tank
and test every joint and fitting in the LPG supply sys-
tem using an approved method, such as soap
bubbles.
WARNING
Testing for gas leaks with a flame
can cause a fire or explosion that could lead to
severe personal injury or death. Use approved
methods only.
Because variations in fuel, altitude and ambient
temperature affect performance, it might be neces-
sary to make governor and fuel mixture adjustments
once the genset has been installed. See the Service
Manual.
