LIGHTING/SHUTDOWN
BEFORE TURNING THE GAS SUPPLY ‘ON’:

must be replaced prior to use. Any hose replacement must be specified by the manufacturer. See parts
list or details, then call Customer Service hotline.
Is the surrounding area free of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors or liquids?

For your safety, if re-lighting a hot heater.
Always wait at least five (5) minutes.
TO LIGHT:
(A)
Open tank enclosure door.
(B)
Make certain hose is connected to the heater intake hose and regulator is connected to the propane
tank. Check both connections to ensure they are tight and leak proof.
(C)
Turn supply tank valve in a counter clockwise direction. Check for leaks by applying soapy water
to the tank and hose connections.
(D)
Push and turn the gas control knob to ‘PILOT’ position. The igniter will spark at the same time.
Firmly press-down the knob for 15 seconds until the pilot remain lit. It might need 2 or 3 trials to
light the pilot burner. If the pilot fails to remain lit or becomes extinguished. Repeat steps B-D.
(E)

after knob is released.
(F)
The burner may now be turned to the full on position and then reduced to the desired heat range.
Caution: Avoid inhaling fumes emitted from the heater’s first use. Smoke and odor from the
burning of oils used in manufacturing will appear. Both smoke and odor will dissipate after
approximately 30 minutes. The heater should NOT produce thick black smoke.
NOTE:
The burner may be noisy when initially turned on. To eliminate excessive noise from the
burner, turn the Control Knob to the pilot position. Then turn the knob to the level of heat desired.
