INFORMATION

 

 

 

 

 

Propane Gas: Propane gas is odorless. An odor-making agent is added to

propane gas. The odor helps you detect a propane gas leak. However, the odor

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

added to propane gas can fade. Propane gas may be present even though no odor

 

 

 

 

exists.

 

 

 

 

Make certain you read and understand all warnings. Keep this manual for

 

 

 

 

reference. It is your guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.

 

 

 

 

•

For indoor use only. Provide adequate ventilation.

 

 

 

 

• Do not use heater outdoors or in occupied dwellings.

 

 

 

 

•

Do not use heater in living or sleeping quarters.

 

 

 

 

• Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline,

 

 

 

 

 

paint thinner, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not use heater in

 

 

 

 

 

areas with high dust content.

 

 

 

 

• Do not use heater below ground level. Propane gas is heavier than air. If a

 

 

 

 

 

leak occurs, propane gas will sink to the lowest possible level.

 

 

 

 

•

Use only in well-vented areas. Before using heater, provide at least three

 

 

 

 

 

square feet of fresh, outside air opening for each 100,000 BTU/Hr of rating.

 

 

 

 

 

This heater produces carbon monoxide, which is listed by the State of

 

 

 

 

 

California as a reproductive toxin under Proposition 65.

 

 

 

 

• Check heater for damage before each use. Do not use a damaged heater.

 

 

 

 

• Keep heater away from strong drafts, water spray, rain, or dripping water.

 

 

 

 

• Never attach duct work to heater.

 

 

 

 

• Never block air inlet (bottom of shell) or air outlet (around top of shell) of heater.

 

 

 

 

• Keep children and animals away from heater.

 

 

 

 

•

Locate heater on stable and level surface if heater is hot or operating.

 

 

 

 

• Minimum heater clearances from combustibles: Sides: 4 feet,

 

 

 

 

 

Top: 6 feet-2 inches.

 

 

 

 

•

Install and use heater with care. Follow all local ordinances and codes. In the

 

 

 

 

 

absence of local ordinances and codes, refer to ANSI/NFPA 58. This in-

 

 

 

 

 

structs on the safe storage and handling of propane gases.

 

 

 

 

• Use only the hose and factory preset regulator provided with the heater.

 

 

 

 

•

Inspect hose before each use of heater. If highly worn or cut, replace before

 

 

 

 

 

using heater. Use the replacement hose assembly that is specified by the

 

 

 

 

 

manufacturer.

 

 

 

 

• Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.

 

 

 

 

• Keep propane tank(s) below 100° F.

 

 

 

 

•

Keep heater at least six feet from propane tank(s).

 

 

 

 

• Never move, handle, or service a hot or operating heater. Severe burns may

 

 

 

 

 

result. You must wait 30 minutes after turning heater off.

 

 

 

 

• To prevent injury, wear gloves when handling heater.

 

 

 

 

• Turn off propane supply to heater when not in use.

 

 

 

 

•

Do not alter heater. Keep heater in its original state.

 

 

 

 

•

Do not use heater if altered.

 

 

 

 

•

Use only original replacement parts. This heater must use design-specific

 

 

 

 

 

parts. Do not substitute or use generic parts. Improper replacement parts

 

 

 

 

 

could cause serious or fatal injuries.
