To assure safety, proper function and lon-
gevity of the heater, regular maintenance is
required. The frequency of maintenance will
depend on the usage of the unit. Review the
following concerning the criteria for a properly
functioning heater. Failing to follow proper,
regular maintenance will void warranty.
A hazardous condition may result if a heater
is used that has been modified or is not func-
tioning properly. When the heater is working
properly:
• The flame is contained within the heater.
• The flame is essentially blue with perhaps
some yellow tipping.
• There is no strong disagreeable odor, eye
burning or other physical discomfort.
• There is no smoke or soot internal or ex-
ternal to the heater.
• There are no unplanned or unexplained
shut downs of the heater.
The parts list shows the heater as it was con-
structed. Do not use a heater which is different
from that shown. In this regard, use only the
hose, regulator and cylinder connection fitting
(called a POL fitting) supplied with the heater.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use alternates. For this
heater, the regulator must be set as shown
in
Specifications,
page 2. If there is any un-
certainty about the regulator setting, have it
checked by a qualified service person.
1. Allow at least 45 minutes for heater to cool
down after using.
2. Store heater upright in a sheltered area
away from inclement weather and dust.
3. If desired, cover heater after heater has
cooled.
4. If heater is not to be used for an extended
period of time, disconnect and remove
propane/LP gas cylinder and store in ac-
cordance with the
Standard for Storage
and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum
Gases, ANSI/INFPA 58.
