OPERATION
bEFORE TURNING GAS SUPPlY ON
Your heater was designed and approved
for OUTDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT use it
inside a building, or any other enclosed
area. Make sure surrounding areas are free
of combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors or liquids.
Ensure that there is no obstruction to air ventilation. Be sure all gas connections
are tight and there are no leaks. Be sure that access panels are clear of debris.
Be sure any component removed during assembly or servicing is replaced and
fastened prior to starting.
bEFORE lIGHTING
1. Heater should be thoroughly inspected before each use, and by a qualified
service person at least annually. If re-lighting a hot heater, always wait at
least 5 minutes.
2. Inspect the hose assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts, or wear.
Suspected areas should be leak tested. If the hose leaks, it must be replaced
prior to operation. Only use the replacement hose assembly specified by the
manufacturer.
lIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Note: For initial start-up or after any cylinder change, hold the Control Knob in for
2 minutes to purge air from all gas lines before proceeding. When lighting the
burner make sure that the Control Knob is held in while pressing the igniter button.
The Control Knob can be released after the burner has been lit for 15-30 seconds.
1. Turn the Control Knob to the "OFF" position.
2. Fully open the LP cylinder valve.
3. Press and turn the Control Knob counterclockwise 90˚ to the "HIGH" position.
While pressing inward on the Control Knob in the "HIGH" position also press
and hold the RED igniter button until the burner flame ignites. (You should
hear a rapid series of sparks when pressing the igniter button.) After the
burner ignites you can release the RED igniter button but you MUST continue
to press inward on the Control Knob for an additional 15-30 seconds to allow
time to heat up the safety thermocouple which keeps the burner lit.
4. To decrease the flame, turn the Control Knob counter clockwise towards
"LOW". If you then wish to increase the flame, turn the Control Knob
clockwise towards "HIGH".
5. To turn the appliance OFF, push down the Control Knob and turn clockwise
to the "OFF" position.
