Safety First!

Read and become familiar with this entire manual, especially the following 
precautions .
If you are unsure of anything in these instructions, STOP and contact  
 .800 .762 .42 for assistance . 

Caution:  This appliance is for outdoor use only (outside any 
enclosure). Always make sure there is fresh air ventilation.

•  Use only outdoors in a well-ventilated space, never use in a building, 

garage or any other enclosed area .

•  Always maintain at least 36” clearance (top) and 24” clearance (side) 

from combustible materials .

• Always place heater on a hard and level surface .
• Do not use if the wind velocity is greater than 0 miles per hour .
• Unit will operate at reduced efficiency below 40ºF (5ºC) .
• Keep sprinklers and other water sources away from burner and controls .

•  Always use extreme caution when near heater. Alert both children 

and adults to the hazards of high temperatures, especially to avoid 
burns or clothing catching fire.

•  Young children and pets should be carefully supervised when they 

are in the area of heater.

•  Do not hang clothing or other flammable materials either on or near 

heater.

•  Any guard or other protective device removed for servicing the 

heater must be replaced prior to operating the heater.

•  Certain materials or items, when stored under heater, will be subjected 

to radiant heat and could be seriously damaged .

•  Do not alter heater in any manner .
•  The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the appliance 

must be used and replacements must be those specified by the 
manufacturer .

•  Inspect heater before each use .  If a damaged part is detected, do not 

operate until an original equipment replacement part has been properly 
installed . Use of unauthorized parts will void warranty and create an 
unsafe condition .

•  Do not attempt to use this appliance without a functional factory-

supplied gas regulator in place . If regulator becomes damaged, use only 
a factory-supplied replacement .

•  Prior to operating heater, replace any guards or protective devices 

removed for servicing .

•  During operation, do not touch burner assembly . The surface of heater’s 

emitter can reach temperatures approaching 600ºF .

•  After shutdown, do not touch burner assembly until heater has cooled 

(approximately 45 minutes after use) .

Notice:

 This product should not be used with any fuel other than liquid 

propane . Use of other fuels will detract from heaters performance and will 
void your warranty . 

Before you do anything else,  

read and understand all  

precautions in Safety First!
