TROUBLESHOOTING - 5040A Series Parasol Heaters Caution: After completion of any repairs and before operating your Parasol Heater, make sure you read and follow all safety information in the Instructions for Use manual. If you do not have this manual, contact Coleman Consumer Service at 1-800-835-3278 or TDD 316-832-8707. A. BASE, SHEET METAL, & POST COMPONENTS: Problem Solution It is possible to drill out any holes with stripped threads, and tap for use with the next size screw. 2.
B. ROTARY and BATTERY-OPERATED IGNITERS: Problem 1. Rotary igniter is loose. Solution Comments Pull igniter knob off (ref. Figures 12 & 12A in 5040 Series Repair and Replacement Procedures) and tighten the mounting screws. Battery-operated igniter is loose. Make sure that the ribbed plastic collar that holds the battery-operated igniter to the control console is tight (ref. Figure 13). This will insure that a grounding tab (not visible) is making good contact. 2.
C. MANTLE (LIGHT) SECTION: Problem 1. New mantles will not light using the igniter. Mantles will not light using a match. Solution After tying new mantles to the burner caps, they should be burned off using a match before use. The gas controls should be “off”. After “burn-off” it is suggested that you light them the first time using a match. Once lighted, they will fill out a bit, then should relight O.K. using the igniter.
D. HEATER (BURNER) SECTION: Problem 1. Pilot will not light using the igniter (or with a long match – “A” models only). Solution Make sure propane tank is not empty and that propane tank valve and heater valve are both turned “on”. Note: Valve must be in “pilot” position and must be pressed “in” while igniter is actuated, otherwise pilot will not light. After pilot lights you must hold the knob “in” for up to 45 seconds in order to engage the thermocouple.
