t must be positioned so tha.t the base
of the heater is no less than 18 inch (450mm) above the garage oor or 8 ft (2450mm) In repair garages.
The heater must be placed on a stable suace. Do not place it on a chair, ladder, Etc. Raising the heater
will reduce BUT NOT eliminate the possibility of lighting the vapor of any Flammable liquids which maybe
improperly stored or accidentally spilled. If the smell of gasoline is present, DO NOT operate this heater
until the area has been properly ventilated.
•
NEVER install or remove propane tank while outdoor stove is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition
sources or while outdoor stove is hot to touch.
• During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use the heater in spaces that contain or
may contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust
paicles or unknown chemicals. Minimum clearances from combustible materials: 12 inches from the
sides & 48 inches from the top.
• This produ is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless.and flammable. An odorant is
normally added to help detect leaks and can be described as a "rotten egg" smell. The odorant can fade
over lime so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMION
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by
ignition sources including matches, lighters,sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from the
original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NF
58. Turn o propane when not in use.

PRODUCT INFORMATION/ ASSEMB
The propane (LP) gas tank must also be equipped with the following:
• A collar to protect the propane (LP) gas valve.
•
A shuto valve terminating a propane (LP) gas tank valve outlet as specified in the American National
Standard for Compressed Gas Cylinder Valve Outlet and Inlet Connections
• A safety relief valve having direct communications with the vapor space of the tank.
• An arrangement of vapor withdrawal.
• Do not use this heater for heating human living quarters.
• Do not use in unventilated areas.
• The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.
• Proper ventilation air must be provided to support the combustion air requirements of the heater being used
as listen in this manual.
• Lack of proper ventilation air will lead to improper combustion.
• Improper combustion can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning leading to serious inju or death. Symptoms
of carbon monoxide poisoning can include headache, dizziness, burning eyes and nose, nausea, dry mouth
or sore throat and difficulty in breathing.
Propane (LP) Fuel Gas Odor:
Propane (LP) gas and natural gas have man-made odorants added specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks.
It can be described as a "roen egg" smell. If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the fuel gas. Since
propane (LP) is heavier than air you should smell for the gas odor low to the floor.
• Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas. Do not operate any electrical switches. Do not pull
any power supply or extension cords. Do not light matches or any other source of flame. Do not use your
telephone.
• Get eveone out of the building and away from the area immediately.
• Close all propane (LP) gas tanks.
• Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air and may sele in low areas. When you have reason to suspect a
propane leak, keep out of all low areas.
• While outside the building call your fuel gas supplier and your fire depament. Do not re-enter the building
or area in question.
•
Stay out of the building and away from the area until declared safe by the firefighters and your fuel gas
supp
li
er.
• Be sure to have the fuel gas service person and the firefighters check for escaped gas. Have them air out
the building and area before you return. Properly trained service people must repair any leaks, check for
fuher leakages, and then have them relight the appliance for you.
• Turn heater gas valve knob and gas tank valve to OFF position.
• Thread POL fiing into interior threads of propane (LP) tank valve. This fiing has LEFT-HANDED THREADS
(reversed). Turn POL fitting COUNTER CLOCKWISE to tighten and CLOCKWISE to loosen. Protect POL
fitting from damage when disconnected from tank.
•
Have tank lled by your local Propane gas supplier.
• Some propane (LP) tanks have a bleed-o valve. This valve should be inspected for leaks aer each lling
of the tank. Turn clockwise to close the valve.
• Fasten full propane (LP) tank and connect POL filling to tank valve by turning COUNTER CLOCKWISE .
• With heater gas valve knob still in the OFF position, turn ON tank valve and check all gas connections with
a 50/50 liquid dish soap and water solution to be sure they are tight and leak proof. The formation of bubbles
indicate a gas leak. Correct all leaks before using the heater. Never use a flame to check for gas leaks.

CONNECTION
Read and understand all safety information before connecting heater to propane tank.
1. Make sure heat regulator knob is in the OFF position.
2. (Applies to dual burner model only). Place heater onto tank with tank collar bracket over tank collar
(Fig. 1) Mounting bolt knob should be positioned to the outside of tank collar. (Fig. 1)
3. (Applies to dual burner model only). Firmly secure to tank by hand-tightening mounting bolt knob. Do not
oveighten mounting bolt knob.
For single and double burner models, insert heat regulator valve connector into propane (LP) tank's valve
outlet fitting and turn Fuel Connecting Nut le (reverse thread, turn counterclock-wise) until fully tightened .
No wrench is required.
Applies to single burner model only). Loosen wing bolt and slide support bracket (Fig. 3) down until the base
al the bracket seats lirmly on the tank to support the burner.
6. Open propane (LP) tank valve slowly.
7. Check all fittings for leaks. Apply a 50/50 mixture of liquid dish soap and water to all joints. Bubbles forming
show a leak. Correct all leaks at once.
WARNING: NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAM E TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.
Always remove propane tank from heater after each use following the guidelines in this manual. Do not store
heater while attached to propane (LP) tank.
RNING: Always maintain proper clearance from combustible materials. Mini mum clea ranee from
combustibles: side & rear: 36" (9 1 cm); Top: 36" (91 cm); Front: 60" (1 52 cm); Floor: O" when installed on
