displacement and shall be constructed to maintain
a fixed relationship between essential parts under
normal and reasonable conditions of handling and
usage. Parts not permanently secured shall be
designed so they cannot be incorrectly assembled
and cannot be improperly located or misaligned
in removing or replacing during cleaning or other
servicing.
Use a standard 20 lb. propane cylinder only
(approximately 12.2 in. / 31cm. in diameter and
17.9 in. / 45.5cm high).

and removed from the appliance. A cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well-
ventilated area out of the reach of children. A disconnected cylinder must have
dust caps tightly installed and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other
enclosed area. The maximum inlet gas supply pressure: 250 psi /1750 kPa.
• The minimum inlet gas supply pressure: 5 psi /35kPa. Manifold pressure with
regulator provided: 11 inch W.C/ 2.74 kPa. The minimum hourly of 17000 Btu /4.98
kW is required input rating for an appliance for automatic operation at ratings less
than full input rating.
• The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the appliance must be

the regulator in one hand and insert the nipple into the valve outlet. Be sure the
nipple is centered in the valve outlet. The coupling nut connects to the large outside

comes to a full stop. Firmly tighten by hand only.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not store a spare propane gas cylinder under or near this appliance;
• Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full;
• Place the dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in
use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve that is provided with
the cylinder valve. Other type of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
WARNING
To Disconnect:
Fully close the tank valve by turning clockwise. Turn the
coupling nut counterclockwise until the regulator assembly detaches.
• A dented, rusted or damaged propane cylinder may be hazardous and should be
checked by your cylinder supplier. Never use a propane cylinder with a damaged
valve connection.
• The propane cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the
specifications for propane gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT) or the standard for cylinders, spheres and tubes for transportation of
dangerous goods and commission, CAN/CSA-B339.
• The cylinder must have a listed overfilling prevention device.
• The cylinder must have a connection device compatible with the connection for
the appliance.
• The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
• Never connect an unregulated propane cylinder to the heater.
• Attach regulator to cylinder. Complete attachment.
