Unpacking and Assembly
- Remove heater and base from Carton (Save carton and
packing materials for later storage).
- Remove all protective packaging protecting heater
during shipping.
- Place Heater Base on flat surface with wheels on
ground.
- Line up holes in bottom of heater cabinet with locking
tabs on top of base (see Figure 2).
- Mount heater cabinet to heater base sliding tabs
through holes in bottom of cabinet and sliding cabinet
backward approximately ¼” or until cabinet will not
move further back.
- Use thumbscrews to attached heater cabinet to heater
base.
- Inspect heater closely for any damage that may have
occurred during shipping. If there is any damage, return
the heater to the place of purchase.
Ventilation
Caution:
Always provide a fresh air opening in the
heated space of at least three square feet (2,800 sq. cm)
for each 100,000 BTU/Hr. of heater output. Provide a
larger opening if more heaters are being used. As an
example, a HS-18-PCH-A heater will require:
- a two-car garage door open 2 inches, or
- a single car garage open 3 inches, or
- two thirty two inch wide windows open 4 inches.
Connecting to Gas Supply
IMPORTANT!
Always use a propane (LP) cylinder that has
a connection device that is compatible with the hose and
regulator assembly supplied.
- Remove the Back Cover by sliding the cover straight up
and away from the Heater Body. Place the LP cylinder
on the Bottom Plate and replace the Back Cover.
- To connect LP cylinder, insert regulator end fitting into
cylinder valve, rotate coupling nut clockwise and tighten
firmly (see Figure 3).
- Open valve on propane cylinder slowly. If the valve is
not opened slowly, the excess flow check valve in the
regulator will stop the flow of gas. If this should hap-
pen, close the valve, wait one minute (or until you hear
the valve click), and re-open, slowly.
The Propane (LP) gas pressure
regulator and hose assembly sup-
plied with the heater must be used without alteration.
Be sure to inspect the regulator hose
before each use. If the hose is cut or
frayed, replace it with the manufacturer suggested
assembly.
WARNING! This heater is not intended for residential use.
