Propane hose kinks when slide is pulled in

[RWMcFall]

I have a 2013 Big Horn. The refridgerator lights off on propane and runs like it is supposed to. When I bring the slide in (The fridge is in the slide) it kinks the propane hose right where it attaches to hard piping and the fridge shuts down on low gas flow. Can the fitting under the slide be turned?

We had the same problem. It's a design flaw. We've replaced the hose at least twice.

I changed the direction of the hose support to the other direction to give the hose a straight shot to the fitting. Works for me and clears as the slide goes in and out.
