Notes

Argosy campaign no N/A.28' motorhome.possibility that the propane gasregulator was improperly mounted and that a protective plate must be installedin front of the second stage regulator to protect it from freezing rain androad splatter.if these conditions exists, the improperly mounted regulatorwill not drain moisture out the provided vent.and if the ambient tempertureshould drop below freezing, the regulators could become inoperative.inoperative regulators could reduce the gas pressure to "o", or could let thefull propane tank pressure enter the system.excessive pressure on appliancevalves could overcome their safety features and allow propane gas to enter thecoach, and in turn cause a fire or explosion.(correct by inspecting andcorrecting installation of the gas regulator and installing a protective platein front of the lpg tank).
