8.3 Changing gas bottles
The gas bottle compartment is located in the left-hand vehicle rear under the
bed (Summit 600/640) or in the right-hand vehicle rear under the bed
(Summit 600 plus). The gas storage space is conceived for two 11 kg gas
bottles (Summit 600/640) or for one 11 kg and one 5 kg gas bottle (Summit
600 plus).
Close the regulator tap (Fig. 43,4) on the gas bottle. Pay attention to the
direction of the arrow.
Hold the gas pressure regulator (Fig. 43,2) and open the knurled nut
(Fig. 43,3) (left-handed thread).
Remove the gas pressure regulator and the gas tube (Fig. 43,1) from the
gas bottle.
Release the fixing belts and remove the gas bottle.
Place a filled gas bottle in the gas bottle compartment.
Fix gas bottle in place with the fixing belts.
Position the gas pressure regulator (Fig. 43,2) and the gas tube (Fig. 43,1)
on the gas bottle and tighten the knurled nut (Fig. 43,3) by hand (left-
handed thread).
Screwed connections on the gas pressure regulator have left-handed
threads.
For gas-operated units the gas pressure must be reduced to 30 mbar.
Connect gas pressure regulator complete with safety valve directly to bottle
valve.
The gas pressure regulator reduces the gas pressure in the gas bottle
down to the operating pressure of the gas devices.
For filling and connecting the gas bottles in Europe the accessories shops
have corresponding Euro filling sets and Euro bottle sets.
Information is available at the dealers and service centres.
When changing gas bottles, do not smoke or create any open fire.
When you have changed the gas bottle, check whether gas escapes at
the connection points and unions. Use a leakage search spray to spray
the relevant connection point or union. These agents are available at the
accessories shop.
