LOCATING HEATER
The heater (and propane/LP gas supply cylinder if applicable) must be located on a hard, flat, level surface to minimize the risk of accidental tipping. If an propane/LP gas supply cylinder is used (propane/ LP model only), the cylinder should be adequately restrained to prevent accidental tipping. DO NOT operate this heater with the supply cylinder in any other than the upright position.
This appliance must be installed only in locations where the potential for physical damage to the appliance (i.e., due to physical contact) is reduced to a minimum.
The installer must inform the owner/operator of this appliance that precautions must be taken to protect the appliance from physical damage.
This appliance produces radiant heat. Therefore, it must be located at least 6 feet away from any propane/LP gas container and must not be directed toward any propane/LP gas container within 20 feet.
The heater must be installed in a location such that it will not be exposed directly to water spray, rain and/or dripping water.
Use of this heater in a draft/windy area decreases its efficiency. If possible, operate the unit in a draft free area.

The heater must be located at least six feet away from any propane/LP cylinder and must not be directed toward any propane/LP cylinder within 20 feet. If more than one heater is used, they and the supply cylinders must be separated by at least 20 feet.
The gas supply must be turned off at the propane/LP supply cylinder when the heater is not in use.
When the heater is to be stored indoors, the connec- tion between the propane/LP supply cylinder and the heater must be disconnected and the cylinder removed from the heater and stored in accordance with Chapter 5 of the Standard for the Storage and
Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases. ANSI/ NFPA 58 (U.S.) OR CAN/CGA B149.2 (Canada).

This system must include an approved manual shutoff valve which is readily accessible and is located within 6 feet of the appliance. Additionally, a sediment trap or drip leg must be located upstream of this manual shutoff valve. Refer to the appropriate (natural gas) installation code noted above. If a flexible connec- tor is used, it must be of an approved type.
WARNING: Never use a flame
for gas leak testing.
