Mr. Heater manual General, ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MODEL MH12, Directly Connected To Cylinder

GENERAL

A new feature of the series MH12 heaters is a 3-step regulator valve that has a high setting and a low setting. The Infra-Red series MH12 camp heaters are tested and shipped from the factory assembled, except for the propane gas cylinder. The Camp Heaters will operate approximately – 1 ½ hours on a 14 oz. Cylinder - Disposable

18 ½ hours on No. 2011 P.O.L. Cylinder – Refillable 37 hours on No. 2020 P.O.L. Cylinder – Refillable

Above figures are calculated on the assumption that the heater is turned “Full On” at all times. Because it will not be necessary in many cases to have the heater turned “Full On” at all times, you can count on considerably longer burning times for each cylinder. Cylinders are available in most sporting goods stores, camping centers and propane outlets.
