Safety Precautions:
•Care must be taken for the supervision of children in the vicinity of an operating or hot heater.
•Due to the high surface temperatures adults and children must observe clearances to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
•Check the heater thoroughly for damage. DO NOT operate a damaged heater.
•The heater should be inspected before each use, and at least annually by a qualified service person.
•Do Not Modify the heater or operate a heater, which has been modified from its original condition.
•Do Not operate a heater that is not fully assembled.
•Use only with propane gas.
•Use only Vapor withdraw propane cylinder.
•Disconnect the propane cylinder from the heater when not in use.
•Never use the heater if the ballast weight is not assembled onto the base. The base must be weighted to avoid tipping.
•Use only the regulator provided with the heater. Never connect heater to an unregulated gas supply.
•This heater is for outdoor use only; even so make sure that there is ample fresh air ventilation. DO NOT use in buildings, garages, or other enclosed spaces.
•If at any time gas odor is detected, IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE operation until the source of gas has been located and corrected. See Fuel Safety Precautions for more details about smelling odors.
•Install the heater such that it is not directly exposed to water spray, rain and or dripping water or wind.

•Always maintain minimum clearances to people
or combustibles (like paper) of: Horizontal from dome (360o) – 3ft; Ceiling – 3ft.
•Operate only on a level stable surface.
•Do not move, handle or service while hot or burning.
•Do not use heater in a windy condition where wind speed exceeds 10 mph.
•Use only in accordance with local codes.
•Do not hang or attach clothing or any other combustibles from, on or near heater.
•Check control compartment burners and circulation air passageways for free air passage; make sure that there are no obstructions. These areas are a common location for spider webs, which can present a dangerous condition, damage the heater and render it unsafe for use. The heater must be checked if any of the following conditions exist:
a.Gas smell along with predominate yellow tipping of the burner flames.
b.Heater does not reach temperature.
c.Uneven burner glow.
d.Burner makes popping noises during normal use, other than during shutdown.
•Only a qualified service person should install and repair this heater.
•Stainless steel emitter and gas valve should not be cleaned or painted. The reflector and control cover may be cleaned with a non-corrosive / non-combustible solution, but not painted.
•After initial assembly and after every cylinder replacement, all gas connection should be checked for leaks with a soap and water solution, NEVER USE FLAME

FUEL GAS ODOR ----------------
LP gas and natural gas have man-made odorants added specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks.
If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the fuel gas. Since Propane (LP) is heavier than air you should smell for the gas odor low to the floor.
Learn to recognize the odor of propane (LP) gas and natural gas. Local propane (LP) gas dealers will be more than happy to give you a scratch and sniff pamphlet. Use it to become familiar with the fuel gas odor.
Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being around an odor for a period of time can affect your sensitivity to that particular odor. Odors present in animal confinement buildings can mask fuel gas odor.
ANY GAS ODOR IS YOUR SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE ACTION!
Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas. Do not operate any electrical switches. Do not pull any power supply or extension cords. Do not light matches or any other source of flame. Do not use your telephone.
Get everyone out of the building and away from the area immediately.
Close all propane (LP) gas tank or cylinder fuel supply valves, or the main fuel supply valve located at the meter if you use natural gas.
Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air and may settle in low areas. When you have reason to suspect a propane leak, keep out of all low areas.
Use your neighbor's phone and call your fuel gas supplier and your fire department. Do not re-enter the building or area.
Stay out of the building and away from the area until declared safe by the firefighters and your fuel gas supplier.
FINALLY, let the fuel gas service person and the firefighters check for escaped gas. Have them air out the building and area before you return.
Properly trained service people must repair the leak, check for further leakages, and them relight the appliance for you.
ODOR FADING - NO ODOR DETECTED----
Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell the odor of the man-made chemical added to propane (LP) or natural gas. You must determine if you can smell the odorant in these fuel gases.
The odorant in propane (LP) gas and natural gas is colorless and the intensity of its odor can fade under some circumstances.
If there is an underground leak, the movement of gas through the soil can filter the odorant.
Propane (LP) gas odor may differ in intensity at different levels. Since Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air, there may be more odor at lower levels.
Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you continue to detect any gas odor, no matter how small, treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as discussed previously
ATTENTION - CRITICAL POINTS TO REMEMBER!
Propane (I-P) gas has a distinctive odor. Learn to recognize these odors. (Reference Fuel Gas Odor and Odor Fading sections above.
Even If you are not property trained in the service and repair of the heater, ALWAYS be consciously aware of the odors of propane (LP) gas and natural gas.
If you have not been properly trained in repair and service of propane (LP) gas then do not attempt to light heater, perform service or repairs, or make any adjustments to the heater on the propane (LP) gas fuel system.
A periodic sniff test around the heater or at the heater's joints; i.e. hose, connections, etc., is a good safety practice under any conditions. If you smell even a small amount of gas, CONTACT YOUR FUEL GAS SUPPLIER IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT WAIT
