Operation
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.
( See Figure 3 & 4.)
–
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.
– Fasten full propane tank and connect proper
fitting to LP cylinder valve by turning COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE.
– With heater gas valve knob still in OFF position
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 (866)-676-1989.
– The installation of this heater must meet all local
codes and/or gas utility requirements. In the
absence of local codes, the National Fuel Code
ANSI Z223.1 should be followed.
– The minimum clearances to any combustible
construction materials must be maintained at all
times (See Page 2).
– Inspect the heater before each use, and at least
annually by a qualified service person.
Purging and
filling of the LP
cylinders must
be performed by personnel who have
been thoroughly trained in accepted
LP gas industry procedures. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in
explosion, fire, severe personal injury or
death.
