Description

1

High Pressure Gas Gauge capable of 
reading up to 15 PSIG

1

1/8 in. black iron street ell. 

A.  PREPARATION

1.

Close fuel supply valve at propane gas supply
container.

2.

Allow heater to burn off gas remaining in it’s gas
supply line..

B.  GAUGE INSTALLATION

1.

Using an wrench, remove the cap from the safety
control valve as shown in Fig. 12

FIG.12

2.

Install a 1/8 in. street elbow and pressure gauge at
this point.  See Fig.13

FIG.13

3.

Open fuel supply valves to heater.

C.  READING PRESSURES

1.

Light the heater. Set the variable rate valve to its
highest setting.With the heater operating, the
pressure gauge should read the pressure specified on
the dataplate or in the specification section of this
owner’s manual.

2.

Does the pressure reading agree with that given on
t h e   d a t a p l a te ?   I f   s o ,   n o   f u r t h e r   c h e c k i n g   o r

-- Improper regulator for heater.

-- Regulator out of adjustment.

(Replace if necessary).

-- Blockage in gas hose.

-- Insufficient size or quantity of propane gas supply 

containers.

D.  COMPLETION

1.

Once the proper pressure has been confirmed, close
fuel supply valves.

2.

Allow heater to burn off fuel remaining in gas supply
line.

3.

Remove elbow, and gauge.

4.

Install hex cap onto safety valve.  Tighten securely.
