Connecting to Gas Supply (Continued)
- 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 happen,
close the valve, wait one minute (or until you hear the
valve click), and re-open, slowly.
- Be sure to inspect all connections for leaks, by using a
50/50 mixture of dish soap and water on all connection.
Any bubbles forming indicate a leak.
Lighting Instructions
1. Turn the knob on the LP cylinder valve
counterclockwise to the ON position.
2. Turn the Valve Knob on heater to the OFF position.
3. Wait five (5) minutes for any gas to clear. Smell for gas.
If none is evident, proceed to the next step.
4. Push in the Valve Knob on the heater and rotate knob
to PILOT/IGN position. (Note: If operating the heater for
the first time, or after a replacing the cylinder, hold the
control knob down for 30 seconds, then rotate to
PILOT/IGN, to allow any air to bleed from the system.)
Rotating the Valve Knob to the PILOT/IGN position will
cause the piezo igniter to spark and light the pilot. It
may be necessary to rotate the Valve Knob (from OFF
to PILOT/IGN) several times to ignite the heater.
5. Keep the Valve Knob depressed for at least 30 seconds
after the pilot is lit. This will heat the thermocouple.
After 30 seconds, release the Valve Knob.
6. If heater fails to light, or does not stay lit, repeat Steps 2
through 6.
7. When burner stays lit, turn Gas Valve Knob to desired
setting.
Test Firing Heater
It is always a good idea to test fire your heater in a safe
and controlled environment, in an area with adequate ven-
tilation, and away from any combustibles to be sure that all
functions of the heater and gas supply system are
operating properly.
Leak test all gas connections with a 50/50 solution of dish
soap and water. DO NOT use a flame to test for leaks!
Shutdown Instructions
1. Turn the Valve Knob to the “PILOT/IGN” position.
2. Turn the Valve Knob to the “OFF” position.
3. Turn the knob at the LP cylinder clockwise to the OFF
position.
4. Disconnect Regulator Hose assmebly from the LP
cylinder.
Moving and Positioning the Heater
There is a brake in each of the front wheels of your heater
that helps keep it in place when in use. To engage the
brakes, push the lever down on each wheel.
To move the heater, release the brakes, simply by flipping
the levers on both brakes up (See Figure 5).
WARNING! This heater is not intended for residential use.
