NOTE: Propane tanks are to be installed,
fueled, and maintained in accordance to
country, federal, state, and local codes,
rules, regulations, laws, or guidelines.
Do not ll propane container(s) to more than 80 percent of capacity. A properly lled
container contains approximately 80 percent of its volume as liquid propane.
Overlling the propane container(s) can result in uncontrolled propane ow, which
could lead to a re or explosion and result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Continued periodic checks of the propane system periodically (or at least once a year), by a
qualied propane service representative as part of your normal maintenance is recommended.
Hand tighten the propane gas system valves only, do not use a wrench or pliers as over
tightening may damage the valve seals and cause them to leak.
Propane Leak Test
Leaks may be found easily with a soapy water solution. Do not use a solution containing
ammonia or chlorine when locating leaks. ese products are corrosive to copper gas lines
and brass ttings, which could result in deterioration of the copper and brass components.
Apply the soapy solution to the outside of the gas piping ttings. If a leak is present, the soapy
solution will “bubble” at the leak point. If a leak is indicated, shut OFF the propane system
valve(s) and contact a your selling dealer’s service department or qualied propane service
representative immediately.
Propane Gas Tank
If you suspect your propane container has been overlled, contact your selling
dealer or a qualied propane technician for assistance immediately. Do not attempt
to service a propane container overll yourself.
