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 corrected. Correct all leaks at once.

 

6. Close propane supply valve.

OPERATION

 

 

 

! 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.

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 on heater.

! WARNING

Fully close main burner valve before lighting pilot. If not, severe burns can occur. Do this by turning valve handle towards the OFF position until it stops.

3.Open propane supply valve on propane tank(s) slowly. Note: If not opened slowly, excess-flow check valve on propane tank will stop gas flow. If this happens, close propane supply valve and open again slowly.

4.Push in and hold automatic control valve button (see Figure 4). Push piezo ignitor button (see Figure 4). You may need to push the piezo ignitor button 3- 8 times until the pilot lights. Note: Hose may be filled with air. If so, keep automatic control valve button pressed and wait 20 seconds before pressing ignitor button again. When pilot lights, keep automatic control valve button pushed in. Release button after 30 seconds.
