OPERATION
After the heater is properly assembled and all gas connections to the regulator have been tested for gas tightness (Refer page 9, To test for gas tightness.), the heater is ready for operation.
Connecting gas bottle:
1 Slide the bottle cover up until it is clear of
the leg assembly and rests on top of legs so that it will not fall down while you are installing the bottle.
2 ALWAYS CHECK THE GAS SUPPLY
HOSE FOR DAMAGE BEFORE PROCEEDING AND HAVE THE HOSE REPLACED IF THERE ARE ANY CRACKS, HOLES, ABRASION MARKS OR SIGNS OF PERISHING.
3 Attach the regulator to the bottle NOTE: the
thread on the regulator tightens by turning counter-clockwise.
4 Fully open the valve on the gas bottle and
check the connection for leaks as described in the assembly instructions.
5 Replace the bottle cover so that it is resting
completely on the base, taking care not to trap the gas supply hose against the legs.

Moving the heater
1 With the controls facing towards you, tip the
heater backwards.
2 Fold the wheels outwards as shown and
lower the lifted edge onto the wheels.
3 Tip the heater back in the opposite direction
until the heater is balanced and move to desired location.
4 To retract the wheels simply push the heater
backwards again until the wheels are hanging straight down and stand the heater back up (the wheels should fold away without any further assistance).
5 NOTE: The heater will not light unless the
wheels are retracted
IMPORTANT: YOU MUST TEST THIS CONNECTION FOR GAS TIGHTNESS BEFORE OPERATING THE HEATER.
Refer page 9, To test for gas tightness.

OPERATION CONTINUED
Lighting the heater Once the heater is properly assembled and has
been checked for leaks, it is ready for operation.( Refer page 9, To test for gas
tightness.)
1 Place the heater outdoors and ensure that the
minimum clearances to combustible materials are met. (See pages 5 and 6, for definition of
outdoor area)
2 Make sure the heater is sitting on a firm flat
surface with the wheels retracted and all the guards are in place, with the bottle cover sitting on the base. NOTE: The heater will not start if it is not standing straight up.
3 Check that both control knobs are in the off
(0) position. 4 Fully open the valve on the gas bottle. 5 Press and hold the ignition (right hand ) knob
down to the ignition symbol. You should hear
a ticking noise from the spark ignition. If there
is no sound then check that the battery is
properly installed and has a charge. 6 When the main burner has ignited then hold
the knob down for a further 15 seconds to
maintain ignition. 7 Once ignition has been established the
second control knob can be used to control
the top burner 8 If the burner fails to ignite or stay alight then
wait at least 5 minutes before trying again.
Shutting down the heater 1 To turn the heater off, close the valve on the
gas bottle. 2 Once the flame has extinguished, set both
control knobs to the off position.

IMPORTANT
Before proceeding with assembly of your patio heater, unpack all the boxes and be sure that you can identify all the parts shown below.
Note:
The legs and leg flange have been bolted together for shipping purposes and will need to be separated before assembly can begin.
There is also a rubber edging strip around the lower rim of the burner tube**. This will need to be removed before assembly. The rubber edging around the leg flange must stay in place to help prevent damage to the gas supply hose.

ASSEMBLY CONTINUED
1 Place the base on a flat surface, making
sure that the wheels are folded away underneath the base.
2 Remove 1 bolt from the base and, using the
same bolt, attach 1 of the legs as shown (do not re-tighten the bolt fully at this stage) CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE MORE THAN 1 BOLT AT A TIME
3 Once all three legs are in place, attach the
leg flange to the top of the legs using the M8 x 20 bolts and nuts. You can now fully tighten the bolts in both the base and the leg flange.
4 Slide the stainless steel pole over the leg
flange and attach using BOTH self tapping screws. Take care not to over­tighten the screws, as this may strip the threads.
5 Slide the stainless steel
bottle cover assembly over the pole, then remove the protective rubber strip from the end of the burner assembly spigot tube. Remove the battery cover from the burner assembly and slide it over the pole as well.
6 Carefully hold the burner
support and feed the gas supply hose down the pole until it protrudes through the leg flange.
7 Slide the burner assembly
spigot tube inside the pole. You will need to depress the small silver button on the back of the spigot tube to allow the assembly to slide down fully. (Take care not to pinch fingers)
8 Once the assembly is
inserted, you may need to rotate it until the silver button protrudes from the pole.

9 Remove the plastic wrap from the burner
assembly and carefully place the hood on top of the burner assembly as shown below, and align the four holes in the hood with the chrome rods on the burner assembly.
10 Using the 4 mm allen key (this is held by a
plastic clip on the side of the burner assembly) attach the hood using the stainless steel button head cap screws. Do not tighten the screws until all four are in place. You may need to tilt the unit over or use a step ladder to attach the hood.
11 Remove the plastic tag from the end of the
battery terminal and slide the battery cover up until it passes the button on the pole.

To test for gas tightness: 1 Fit the regulator to a properly filled gas bottle
and tighten by hand. (Note: turn fitting counter-
clockwise to tighten) 2 Fully open the valve on the gas bottle. 3 Using a brush or spray bottle, apply a solution
made up of liquid soap and water to all gas
connections to the regulator. 4 If bubbles appear then there is a leak . 5 If a leak is detected you must shut off the valve
immediately. Re-tighten the leaking connection
and re-test. If a leak is still detected then
contact the retailer where the appliance was
purchased from or an approved service
technician.
