To ignite unit (figure 2)

•Remove safety cap.

•Slide lockout lever to off position and hold in position while slowly depressing ignition button.

•After a few attempts if no flame appears, fine tune the unit’s gas flow and retry ignition step above.

To adjust fuel flow (figure 4)

•Adjust the unit fuel flow by turning the black fuel flow adjustment wheel at bottom of unit. A 1/4 inch turn CW/CCW will usually be all that is needed. Note: Extreme caution must be taken not to over adjust fuel flow. If you are unable to make proper adjustment, please call customer service. As the gas is consumed, the gas flow can be adjusted periodi- cally to ensure proper flame height. It is recommended that the user set the flame height to 1/2 inch to 1 inch. If the flame height is set outside these limits the fuel flow / flame may become unstable and cause premature clogging or ignition failure.
