LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG)
WARNING: LP gas regulators must always be installed with the dia-
phragm vent facing downward. Regulators that are not in compartments have
been equipped with a protective cover. Make sure that regulator vent faces
downward and that cover is kept in place to minimize vent blockage, which could
result in excessive gas pressure causing fire or explosion.
CAUTION: The LPG bottles are securely mounted on the front “A” frame of your
trailer. If these bottles must be removed for service or replacement it is important
that they be reinstalled correctly in order to prevent any possibility of their falling
off or becoming dislodged during travel.
WARNING: Your LP tanks must be filled as directed by the tank manu-
facturer. Instructions are located on a decal near the fill valve. The decal must
not be defaced.
WARNING: Your LP tank must be, and can only be, placed in the proper
position when remounting on the front of the trailer. In any other position the
base of the tank will not fit into the recess.
WARNING: Use only the gas bottles furnished with your trailer. If re-
placement is required it must be a bottle of the same size and design.
WARNING: The vent at the bottom of the regulator must be kept free of
any obstructions and must be pointed downward. A good habit is to check the
vent each time a bottle is removed for filling. It is especially important to check
the vent if the trailer has not been used regularly.
Twice a year, or after a long storage period, we suggest you take your unit in for a
checkup and cleaning of the gas operated appliances.
