SAFETY FIRST 
Read and become familiar with this entire manual, especially the 
following precautions: 
Caution: This appliance is for outdoor use only (outside any enclosure). 
Always make sure there is fresh air ventilation. 
•  Use only outdoors in a well ventilated space. Never use in a building, garage 
or any other enclosed area. 
•  Always maintain at least 18” clearance (top) and 24” clearance (side) from 
combustible materials. 
•  Always place heater on a hard and level surface. 
•  Do not use if the wind velocity is greater than 10 miles per hour. 
•  Unit will operate at decreased efficiency below 40 degrees F (5 degrees C). 
•  Keep sprinklers and other water sources away from burner and controls. 
•  Always use extreme caution when near heater. Alert both children and adults 
to the hazards of high temperatures, especially to avoid burns or clothing 
catching fire. 
•  Young children and pets should be carefully supervised when they are in the 
area of heater. 
•  Do not place clothing or other flammable materials on or near heater. 
•  Any guard or other protective device removed for servicing the heater must 
be replaced prior to operating the heater. 
•  Certain materials or items, when stored under heater, will be subjected to 
radiant heat and could be seriously damaged. 
•  Do not alter heater in any manner. 
•  Inspect heater before each use. If a damaged part is detected, do not 
operate until an original equipment replacement part has been properly 
installed. Use of unauthorized parts will void warranty and create an unsafe 
condition. 
•   Do not attempt to use this appliance without a functional factory supplied 
gas regulator in place. If regulator becomes damaged, use only a factory 
supplied replacement. 
•  Prior to operating heater, replace any guards or protective devices removed 
for servicing. 
•  During operation, do not touch burner assembly. The surface of heater’s 
emitter can reach temperatures approaching 1600 degrees F. 
•  After shutdown, do not touch burner assembly until heater has cooled 
completely (approximately 45 minutes after use).
