The gas control valve is located in the lower control compartment. To access the valve open the lower control compartment door (Figure
13). The control valve has a ³⁄₈" NPT thread inlet port and is fitted with a 3" (76 mm) long nipple, ³⁄₈" NPT on both ends. Plan the connections accordingly.
D. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, observe the individual tongues of flame on the burner. Make sure all ports are open and pro- ducing flame evenly across the burner. If any ports are blocked, or partially blocked, clean out the ports.
If any of the original wire as supplied must be replaced, it must be replaced with Type AWM 105° C – 18 GA. wire.

An external regulator must be used on all pro- pane (L.P.G.) heaters, in addition to the regula- tor within the gas valve, to reduce the supply tank pressure to 13" w.c. (maximum).
WARNING: CONNECTING DIRECTLY TO AN UNREGULATED PROPANE TANK CAN CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
Step 6. Wiring – The wiring diagram is detailed in Figure 14. Refer to Figure 15 to field wire optional wall switch. All electrical wiring must

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane resis- tant compounds are used in propane applica- tions). Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using a soapy water solution. Never use an open flame to check for leaks.
A. Mix a 50% dish soap, 50% water solution.
B. Light the appliance (refer to safety and lighting instructions on page 17).
C. Brush all joints and connections with the soapy water solution to check for leaks. If bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn the gas control knob to the “OFF” position. Either tighten or refasten the leaking connec- tion and retest as described above.
be in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes the latest edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. The heater must be electrically grounded.
Step 7. Installing the Optional Remote Wall Switch – The standard millivolt system comes from the factory wired as shown in Figure 14. Select a convenient location for the remote wall switch and connect the wiring to the appliance (Figure 15 ).
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THE OP- TIONAL REMOTE SWITCH TO A 120V POWER SUPPLY.
Note: The optional rocker switch is mounted to the appliance and wired in the same way as the remote wall switch.
