OPERATION

WARNING: Review and understand the warnings in the Safety Information section, page 2. They are needed to safely operate this heater. Follow all local codes when using this heater.

TO START HEATER

1.Follow all installation, ventilation and safety information.

2.Locate heater on stable and level surface. Make sure strong drafts do not blow into front or rear of heater.

3.Plug power cord of heater into a three-prong, grounded exten- sion cord. Extension cord must be at least six feet long. Exten- sion cord must be UL listed.

Extension Cord Size Requirement

Up to 50 feet long, use 18 AWG rated cord.

51 to 100 feet long, use 16 AWG rated cord.

101 to 200 feet long, use 14 AWG rated cord.

4.Plug extension cord into a 120 volt/60 hertz, three-hole, grounded outlet.

5.Open propane/LP supply valve on propane/LP tank(s) slowly. Note: If not opened slowly, excess-flow check valve on pro- pane/LP tank will stop gas flow. If this happens, you may hear a click inside the regulator assembly. To reset the excess flow check valve, close propane/LP supply valve and open again slowly.

6.Make sure regulator is set between 7 and 20 psig. Note: Higher regulator setting will allow heater to produce more heat.

WARNING: Do not adjust regulator below 7 psig or above 20 psig. Heater may not run properly.

7.Turn on/off switch to the ON position. Adjust thermostat to de- sired setting. If heater does not start, thermostat setting may be too low. Turn thermostat knob to higher position to start heater. Note: If heater does not start, turn on/off switch to the OFF posi- tion. Wait ten seconds for safety control to reset, then try again.

TO STOP HEATER

1.Tightly close propane/LP supply valve on propane tank(s).

2.Wait a few seconds. Heater will burn gas left in supply hoses.

3.Turn on/off switch to the OFF position.

4.Unplug heater.

TO RESTART HEATER

If safety control stops gas flow to heater, motor will continue to run.

To restart heater:

1.Turn on/off switch to the OFF position.

2.Wait ten seconds, then turn on/off switch to the ON position.

If heater does not restart

Check manual valves (if any) and supply valves (on propane/LP tank). Make sure they are open.

Check fuel level in propane/LP tank(s). If fuel level is too low, contact local propane/LP gas company.

If heater still does not restart, contact your local service center.

STORAGE

CAUTION: Disconnect heater from propane/LP supply tank(s).

1.Store propane/LP tank(s) in safe manner. See chapter 5 of Stan- dard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58 and the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA B149.2. Follow all local codes.

2.Place plastic cover caps over brass fittings on inlet connector and hose/regulator assembly.

3.Store in dry, clean, and safe place. Do not store hose/regulator assembly inside heater combustion chamber.

4.When taking heater out of storage, always check inside of heater. Insects and small animals may place foreign objects in heater. Keep inside of heater free from combustible and for- eign objects.
