Pre-Lighting Instructions:
Connecting the LP Cylinder
ALL NEW LP CYLINDERS MUST BE PURGED
BEFORE THE FIRST FILLING.
–
Turn heater gas valve knob and LP cylinder valve
to OFF position.
–
LP cylinder valve equipped with old style fitting has
LEFT HANDED THREADS. Turn fitting CLOCKWISE
to loosen. Protect this fitting when disconnected
from LP cylinder.
–
Have your LP cylinder filled by your local propane
gas supplier.
–
Some LP cylinders have a bleed-OFF valve. This
valve should be inspected for leaks after each
filling of the LP cylinder. Turn the valve clockwise to
close.

turn ON the LP cylinder valve and check for leaks
with soap solution.
Checking For Leaks
–
To check for leaks, make up a 50/50 solution of
dish soap and water. Apply this solution to all gas
connections. If bubbles appear, there is a leak. If
a leak is found, turn off the gas supply, and re-
connect the leaking connection. If the leak persists
after several tries, contact Pinnacle Customer
Service at 800-641-6996.
–
The installation of this heater must meet all local

–
The minimum clearances to any combustible
construction materials must be maintained at all
times (See Page 3).
–
Inspect the heater before each use, and at least
annually by a qualified service person.
