Heater position
The heater is primarily for outdoor use only. Always ensure that adequate fresh air ventilation is
provided.
Always maintain proper clearance to combustible materials, i.e. top 100 cm and sides 100 cm
minimum.
Heater must be placed on level firm ground.
Never operate heater in an explosive atmosphere like
in areas where gasoline or other flammable liquids or
vapors are stored.
Gas requirements
This heater is primarily designed to be used with propane gas tanks.
Butane gas tanks may also be used with the appropriate regulator.
The installation and use of this appliance must correspond with local standards, or in the
absence of local codes, with the standard for the storage and handling of liquid petroleum gases.
A dented, rusted or damaged propane tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your
tank supplier. Never use a propane tank with a damaged valve connection.
The propane tank must be arranged to provide for vapor withdrawal from the operating cylinder.
Never connect an unregulated propane tank to the heater.
Leakage test
Gas connections on the heater are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment. A complete gas
tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in shipment
or excessive pressure being applied to the heater.
• Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. The soap solution can
be applied with a spray bottle, brush or rag. Soap bubbles will appear in case of a leak.
• The heater must be checked with a full cylinder.
• Make sure the safety
control valve is in the
OFF position.
• Turn the gas supply ON.
• In case of a leak, turn off
the gas supply. Tighten
any leaking fittings, then
turn the gas supply on
and recheck.
• Never leak test while
smoking.
