General Safety Instructions

DANGER

▲

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

- This heater is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion process. This product is designed to produce extremely minute, nonhazardous amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance with all warnings and instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the heater. Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flulike symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symptoms are present during operation of this product get fresh air immediately!

- For outdoor use only.

- Never use inside house, or other unventilated or enclosed areas.

- This heater consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid

endangering your life.

DANGER

▲

EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD

- Never store propane near high heat, open ames,

pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition souces or where temperatures exceed 120 (49 ). Propane vapors are heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.

- Never install or remove propane cylinder while heater is lit, if pilot light is lit, or ignition source and heater are hot to the touch.

- This hea t er is re d ho t du r in g us e an d can ignite flammables too close to the burner. Keep

ammables at least 2 feet from sides & 3 feet from

top. Keep gasoline and other flammable liquids and vapors well away from heater.

- The propane cylinder must always be stored outdoors in a well ventilated space. Never store propane cylinder in an enclosed area (House, garage, etc.). If heater is to be stored indoors, disconnect the propane cylinder for outdoor storage.

WARNING

▲

- This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added to help detect leaks and can be described as a "rotten egg" smell. The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.

- Propane gas is heaver than air and leaking propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite from matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.

- P ropa ne g as sho uld be sto red or u se d in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in

use.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

If you smell gas:

1. Shut off gas to the appliance.

2. Extinguish open ame.

3. If odor continues, immediately call your gas supplier and local Fire Dept.

Gas Requirements

L.P. GAS INSTALLATION

Gas Heaters that are set to operate with L.P. gas come with a high capacity hose and regulator assembly.

(Note: Only use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the heater or a replacement pressure regulator and hose assemblies ).

20 lb. L.P. cylinder. L.P. Cylinders are not included with the heater. L.P. Cylinders they can be purchased separately at an independent dealer.

L.P. TANK INFORMATION

Never use a dented or rusted L.P. tank or cylinder with a damaged valve.

L.P. cylinders are equipped with an O.P.D (Overﬁ lling Prevention Device). The device shuts off the ﬂ ow of gas to a cylinder after 80% capacity is reached. This limits the potential for release of gas when the cylinder is heated, averting a ﬁ re or possible injury.

The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in an L.P. gas supply cylinder outlet specified, as applicable, for connection No. 510 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connection ANSI/CGA-V-1. Cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. (The L.P. cylinder must have an overﬁ ll protection device, OPD, and a collar to protect the cylinder valve.)

The L.P. gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the speciﬁ cations for L.P. gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/ CAS-B339, “ Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission.”

L.P. TANK USE

• When turning the L.P. tank on, make sure to open the valve SLOWLY two (2) complete turns to ensure proper gas flow. Most gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank, when gas is allowed to escape rapidly it shuts off the gas supply. Opening the valve rapidly may simulate a gas leak, causing the safety device to activate, restricting gas flow causing low ﬂ ames. Opening the valve slowly will ensure this safety feature is not falsely triggered.

• When not in use, gas supply cylinder valve is to be in the “ OFF” position.

• The tank supply system must be stored upright to allow for vapor withdrawal.

• The regulator and hose assembly must be inspected before each use of the heater. If there is excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the heater being used again.

• Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.

• Only a qualified gas supplier should refill the L.P. tank.

• Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet when ever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.

DO NOT store a spare L.P. gas cylinder under or near

the heater. Never ﬁ ll the cylinder beyond 80% full.

If this information is not followed exactly, a

ﬁ re causing death or serious injury may occur.

WARNING

Pre-Operation Leak Testing

GENERAL INFORMATION

Although all gas connections on the heater are leak tested prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible shifting during shipment,

installation or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole

system for leaks and immediately check the system if the smell of gas is detected.

BEFORE TESTING

1. Do not smoke while leak testing.

2. Extinguish all open ames.

3. Never leak test with an open ame.

4. Mix a solution of equal parts mild detergent or liquid soap and water.

TESTING

1. Turn off the burner control knob.

2. Turn the top knob of the fuel supply cylinder counter-clockwise (right to left) two (2) rotations to

open.

3. Apply the soap solution to connections of the fuel supply assembly. If no soap bubbles appear,

there is no gas leak. If bubbles form at the connections, a leak is detected. If a leak is detected,

immediately turn off the gas supply, tighten any leaking ttings, turn gas on, and repeat steps 1-3.

4. Turn off the knob on the fuel supply cylinder.

5. Turn on the burner control knob for a moment to release the pressure in the hose, then turn the

control knobs back off.

6. Wash off soapy solution with cold water and towel dry.

Check all gas supply ttings before each use and each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to the regulator. Have a qualied service technician leak test the heater any time a part of the gas

system is replaced.

Also it is recommended to perform a leak test at least once a year whether or not the L.P. gas supply cylinder has been disconnected.

WARNING

▲

When leak testing this appliance, make sure to test and tighten all loose connections. A slight

leak in the system can result in a low ame, or hazardous condition. Most L.P. gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank, when gas is allowed to escape rapidly, it shuts off the gas supply. A leak may signicantly reduce the gas ow making the heater difcult to light or causing low ames.

WARNING

▲

If you cannot stop a gas leak turn off the gas supply and call your local gas company or the dealer you purchased the appliance from. If necessary, replace the faulty part with the

manufacturer’s recommended replacement part. A slight leak could cause a re.
