WARNING: We cannot foresee every use which may
be made of our heaters. Check with your local fire
safety authority if you have questions about heater
use. Other standards govern the use of fuel gases
and heat producing products for specific uses.
Your local authorities can advise you about these.
CAUTION: SERVICE SAFETY
•
Keep all connections and fittings clean. Make
sure propane cylinder valve outlet is clean.
•
Inspect hose before use. Replace if there is
evidence of abrasion or wear.
•
During set up, check all connections and fittings
for leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame.
• Use as a heating appliance only. Never alter in
any way or use with any device.
• Check entire hose at least annually.
WARNING:
•
This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas
is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is
normally added to help detect leaks and can be
described as a “rotten egg” smell. The odorant
can fade over time so leaking gas is not always
detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane
will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by
ignition sources including matches, lighters, sparks
or open flames of any kind many feet away from
the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for
vapor withdrawal.
•
Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance
with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA
58. Turn off propane when not in use.
WARNING:
EXPLOSION· FIRE HAZARD
•
Never store propane near high heat, open flames,
pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition sources or
where temperatures exceed 120 degrees F (49°C).
• Propane vapors are heavier than air and can
accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the
area immediately.
•
Never install or remove propane cylinder while
heater is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition
sources or while heater is hot to touch.
• This heater is red hot during use and can ignite
flammables too close to the burner. Keep
flammables at least 4 feet from sides & 4 feet from
top. Keep gasoline and other flammable liquids and
vapors well away from heater.
•
The propane cylinder must always be stored outdoors
in a well ventilated space. Never store propane
cylinder in an enclosed area (house, garage, etc.).
If heater is to be stored indoors, disconnect the
propane cylinder for outdoor storage.
WARNING: BURN HAZARD
•
Never leave heater unattended when hot or in use.
• Keep out of reach of children.
