MAINTENANCE CLEANING AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. Allow heater to thoroughly cool before performing any maintenance.
2. Remove disposable 1 lb. cylinder from heater or turn OFF gas supply at remote cylinder
valve, and disconnect hose from heater.
3. Remove (4) four screws that secure the rear cover to the Heater.

clean interior housing with a vacuum cleaner or apply air pressure. Do not damage any
components within the housing assembly when you are cleaning.
8. Inspect and clean main burner orifice (threaded into orifice holder). Orifice holder is
attached to the burner assembly venturi with (2) two screws.
9. Inspect and clean pilot (mounted to bracket) by using a vacuum or apply air pressure
through the holes in the pilot indicated by the arrows in Figure 8.
WARNING: Never use needles, wires, or similar cylindrical objects to clean the pilot
to avoid damaging the calibrated orifice that controls the gas flow assembly.
