Mr. Heater HS35LP General Information, For Safe Operation, Installation Instructions, Location

GENERAL INFORMATION

A.Your portable gas-fired infra-red heater comes fully assembled and is tested at the factory for proper gas and input as stated on the nameplate.

B.Each heater is equipped with a 100% safety shutoff, push button valve which will automatically stop the flow of gas in the event the heater fails to operate for any reason. A tip over switch and an excess flow check are also standard on the model 35LP.

C.Before proceeding with this installation, be sure to inspect for damages. The freight company must be notified of any damages and request that an inspection be made. Enerco Technical Products will send replacements for damaged parts only after receiving a signed inspection report to prove the liability of the freight company.

FOR SAFE OPERATION

A.READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. Read and adhere to these instructions. DO NOT allow anyone who has not read these instructions to assemble, light, adjust or operate this heater.

B.LP-Gas IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE. In the event of a leak, LP- Gas will accumulate and the possibility of a fire is present. LP-Gas is scented and its strong odor is readily detectable. Never strike a match, bring any flame or create an electric spark in an enclosure when you smell LP-Gas. Ventilate the area thoroughly, move the heater outside, and correct the source of the leak before attempting to light any appliance.

C.Always operate the heater with the LP-Gas cylinder in an upright position on a level non-combustible surface. NEVER

PLACE THE CYLINDER ON ITS SIDE WHEN OPERATING THE HEATER.

D.DO NOT attempt to operate the heater with any gas other than that indicated on the heater nameplate.

This heater (including hose and regulator assembly) must be inspected before each use and at least annually by a qualified service person. If the hose for Model 35LP shows evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the heater being put into operation. The replacement hose assembly shall be that specified by the manufacturer. See the parts list.

The minimum ambient temperature rating for this heater is 20 degrees F.

This heater incorporates a “Tip Over” switch which automatically shuts off the burner in the event of tipping. Ensure that this switch is in the vertical position and is secured with the screws provided (see Fig. 4). DO NOT operate this heater with the

LP-gas supply cylinder in any other than the upright position.

LOCATION

Although this heater incorporates a “tip over” switch, the heater and LP-Gas supply cylinder must be located on a hard, flat, level surface to minimize the risk of accidental tipping. The LP Gas supply cylinder should be adequately restrained to prevent accidental tipping. DO NOT OPERATE this heater with the supply cylinder in any other than the upright position.

This appliance must be installed only in locations where the potential for physical damage to the appliance (i.e., due to physical contact) is reduced to a minimum.

The installer must inform the owner/operator of this appliance that precautions must be taken to protect the appliance from physical damage.

This appliance produces radiant heat. Therefore, it must be located at least six feet away from any LP-Gas container and must not be directed toward any LP-Gas container within 20 feet.

The heater must be installed in a location such that it will not be exposed directly to water spray, rain, and/or dripping water.

Use of this heater in a draft/windy area may decrease its efficiency. If possible, operate the unit in a draft free area or turn the face of the heater away from the draft.
