Step 1 Sand/Waterbox assembly :
Your XL Series patio heater comes standard with an empty PVC Sand/Waterbox container which is preassembled
to the heater base. Once filled with sand and topped off with water/windshield washer fluid, this weighted
container will add approximately 30 Lbs. to the base of the heater providing extra stability and safety.
Hardware Used : None
Disassemble the Sand/Waterbox container from the base :
a) Please disassemble the 3) (tall) Leg support posts which are preassembled to the heater base by removing the
bolt that secures each leg to the base. (Please take note of the position of the legs prior to disassembling as they
will later need to be reassembled in the same manner.)
b) Please disassemble the Sand/Waterbox container (9B) from the
Heater Base (9A) by removing the 4 Phillips Head bolts and nuts that
secure the heater base to the container. (Note: Please keep removed
hardware nearby for reassembly during Step 4.)
c) Pry off the 2" cap on the top of the Sand/Waterbox container and
fill the container with either sand or water/windshield washer fluid
(or with sand then topped off with water/windshield washer fluid to add the
maximum weight possible) then snap the 2" PVC cap back into place.
NOTE : DO NOT reinstall the Sand/Waterbox to the base until AFTER
completing Step 2 and Step 3 below. Please see Step 4 for instructions
on reassembling the Sand/Waterbox to the base.
Tip: When filling with sand, having a funnel will be helpful.
Note:
The Sand/Waterbox container may also be filled with water (mild weather climates) or automotive
windshield washer fluid (cold weather climates) however the added weight of the base filled with water or
windshield washer fluid will only add approximately 18 Lbs. to the heater base as compared to 30 Lbs. when filled
with sand and topped off with water (mild climates) or Windshield Washer Fluid (Cold Climates.)
STEP 2: Install the 3) LPG Tank/Cylinder Hardware Brackets to the Heater Base
Hardware Used:
H: Qt 3) LPG Cylinder Brackets
I: Qt 3) M8x25 Bolt (Preinstalled on Cylinder Brackets H)
J: Qt 6) M6x12 Bolt
K: Qt 6) M6 Flat Washer
L: Qt 6) M6 Nut
Note : The 3) LPG Tank/Cylinder Hardware Brackets (H) are an important safety feature used to secure the 20lb
cylinder tank to the base of the heater preventing the tank from becoming dislodged in the unlikely event that
the heater were to be accidentally tipped over or moved.
1) Align the 2 holes in each of the 3) brackets with the holes in the base.
(
Important: Please make sure that the brackets (H) are positioned on the base with the
preinstalled M8x25 bolt heads (I) facing toward the outside edge of the base, with the flush
side of the bracket facing inward, toward the middle of the base
. See illustration on pg 9)
