I'm familiar with the older style propane switching devices -- point the indicator to the tank you want to draw from and, when you run out (normally at 2 AM when it's freezing outside ), manually switch it over to the full tank.
During my recent PDI for the Key West, I was told this is an auto-switching (auto-changeover) propane switch. I have no information for this specific device in my new owner information and it looks like neither of the two devices in the Heartland Owners Manual section.
EDIT: The post rotated for some reason. The device's long axis is up and down. The pointer in the photo is pointing toward the ground.
1. How do I know if this device is an actual auto-switching device?
2. Is the switch in the photo correctly aligned to be drawing off both propane tanks?
3. If it is auto-switching, is it drawing off both tanks at the same time?
Thanks for any insight on this. I want to make sure I know how this system is operating before it get chilly outside.
