Operating Instructions and Owner’s Manual
SERVICING
A hazardous condition may result if a heater is used that has
been modified or is not functioning properly. When the heater
is working properly:
* The flame is contained within the heater.
* The flame is essentially yellow with some blue at the base of
the fame adjacent to the burner.
* There is no strong disagreeable odor, eye burning or other
physical discomfort.
* There is no smoke or soot internal or external to the heater.
* There are no unplanned or unexplained shut downs of the
heater.
The parts lists and exploded view show the heater as it was
constructed. Do not use a heater which is different from that
shown. In this regard, use only the, regulator supplied with the
heater.
IMPORTANT
Do not use alternates. For this heater, the
regulator must be set as shown in "specifications". If there is
any uncertainty about the regulator setting, have it checked.
A heater which is not working right must be repaired, but only
by a trained, experienced service person.
In-warranty products will be repaired with no charge for either
parts or labor. When contacting the manufacturer or service
center. Please include a brief statement indicating date, place
of purchase, the nature of the problem and proof of purchase.
Out-of-warranty products can be repaired with a charge for
parts and labor.
2. Turn off the gas at the supply valve when the heater is not
in use.
3. To clean your heater use light compressed air to remove
any dust or debris. If your heater has been used or stored
in a very dusty or dirty environment and more than a
light cleaning is required you should use a damp cloth to
wipe down the heater. Be sure not to damage or alter
the position of any of the internal components during
cleaning.
