The bleed line will hiss when the valve is open. When the tank is at
80%, liquid propane will be discharged.

Subject: Filling the Propane Tank

Hi,

I looked through the archives but didn't find an answer to
my question:

When I go to get my propane tank filled, I understand
the procedure to be:

-attach fill line
-open small bleed valve to right of fill line
-fill tank

When I open the bleed valve, is propane supposed to hiss out all
the time, or just when the tank is full?  I've been afraid to
open it all the way because of fear of fires.

Thanks!
