OPERATION
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always check for gas
leaks any time the propane cylinder is disconnected and
then reconnected.
A 1 lb. propane cylinder must be connected to the heater
before it can be leak tested. The cylinder installs in only
one position to help prevent it from cross-threading into
the regulator.
To connect:
Remove the cylinder cap.
Place a propane cylinder into the opening as shown,
making sure the threaded outlet is seated in the propane
inlet.
Turn the cylinder clockwise to secure. Hand tighten only.
Using a clean spray bottle and a 50/50 mixture of mild
soap and water, spray soapy solution over the area indi-
cated by the arrow in figure 2.
“Growing” bubbles indicate a leak. Check that the con-
nection is not cross-threaded and that it is securely tight-
ened, then repeat the leak test. If a leak is still present,
remove the cylinder and try with a different cylinder. If
the leak is still present using a different cylinder, contact
customer service for repairs to the heater coupling.
If no leaks are present, you may proceed to start the
heater.
To disconnect:
Hold propane cylinder firmly and turn counter clockwise
to remove.
Place cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder
is not in use.
NOTE:
Only use the type of cap provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage
of propane.
