- 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

to the ON position.

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
ventilation, 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

2. Turn the knob at the LP cylinder clockwise to the OFF

position.

3. Disconnect Regulator Hose assembly from the LP

cylinder.

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).
