seconds, adjust to desired position (“LO” or “HI”).
CAUTION: Do not try to adjust heating level by using

WARNING: When running heater, set control knob at
“LO” or “HI” locked positions. Poor combustion and
higher levels of carbon monoxide may result if heater

INSPECTING BURNER
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pattern often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 17 show a correct pilot flame pattern and also
shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The incorrect pilot
flame pattern is not touching thermocouple. This will
cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple
cools, the heater will shut down. If pilot flame pattern
is incorrect, as shown in Figure 17. (Note: This heater
contains 2 pilots; 1 for NG operation and 1 for LP/Propane
operation. Make sure the pilot relevent to the type of fuel
used is always clean.)
