Please read and understand
all warnings and instructions.

To ignite unit (figure 2)

• Remove safety cap.

• Slide lockout lever to off position and hold in position while slowly
depressing ignition button.

• After a few attempts if no flame appears, fine tune the unit’s gas flow
and retry ignition step above.

To adjust fuel flow (figure 4)

• Adjust the unit fuel flow by turning the black fuel flow adjustment wheel
at bottom of unit. A 1/4 inch turn CW/CCW will usually be all that is
needed. Note: Extreme caution must be taken not to over adjust fuel
flow. If you are unable to make proper adjustment, please call customer
service. As the gas is consumed, the gas flow can be adjusted periodi­cally to ensure proper flame height. It is recommended that the user set
the flame height to 1/2 inch to 1 inch. If the flame height is set outside
these limits the fuel flow / flame may become unstable and cause
premature clogging or ignition failure.

Hands free mode (figure 3)

• To engage hands free mode follow ignition steps above and once the
unit is ignited, position slide stem button (found on backside of unit) to
full right position. This will allow hands free operation of unit.
