2.They are needed to safely op- erate this heater. Follow all local codes when using this heater.

WARNING: Test all gas pip- ing and connections for leaks after installation or servicing. Never use an open flame to check for a leak. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and water to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct all leaks at once.

1.Provide propane supply system (see Propane Supply, page 3).

2.Connect fuel gas fitting on hose/regu- lator assembly to propane tank(s). Turn fuel gas fitting counterclockwise into threads on tank. Tighten firmly using a wrench. IMPORTANT: Tighten regu- lator with vent pointing down. Point- ing vent down protects regulator from weather damage.

3.Connect hose to the valve inlet. Tighten firmly using a wrench. You must use the regulator supplied with heater even if propane tank has one.

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

5.Check all connections for leaks. Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak that must be corrected.

WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for a leak. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and water to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak that must be cor- rected. Correct all leaks at once.

6.Close propane supply valve.
