Size And Capacity Of Propane Cylinders Required
SERVICING
A hazardous condition may result if a heater is used that has been modied or is not functioning properly. When
the heater is working properly:
The ame is contained within the heater.
The ame is essentially yellow with some blue at the base of the fame adjacent to the burner.
There is no strong disagreeable odor, eye burning or other physical discomfort.
There is no smoke or soot internal or external to the heater.
There are no unplanned or unexplained shut downs of the heater.
The parts lists and exploded view show the heater as it was constructed. Do not use a heater which is different
from that shown. In this regard, use only the hose, regulator and cylinder connection tting (called a POL tting)
supplied with the heater. IMPORTANT Match the color stripe on the hang tag attached to the hose assembly with
the color on the label located near the propane inlet tting on the heater. Do not use alternates. For this heater,
the regulator must be set as shown in “specications”. If there is any uncertainty about the regulator setting, have
it checked.
A heater which is not working right must be repaired, but only by a trained, experienced service person.
In-warranty products will be repaired with no charge for either parts or labor. Please include a brief statement
indicating date, place of purchase, the nature of the problem and proof of purchase.
Out-of-warranty products will be repaired with a charge for parts and labor.
