INSTALLATION

! WARNING

Review and understand the warnings in the Safety Informa- tion Section. They are needed to safely operate this heater. Follow all local codes when using this heater.

! WARNING

Test all gas piping 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 5).

2.Connect POL fitting on hose/regulator assembly to propane tank(s). Turn POL fitting counterclockwise into threads on tank. Tighten firmly using 7/8" wrench. IMPORTANT: Tighten regulator with vent pointing down. Pointing vent down protects regulator from weather damage.
