SAFETY
Portable Infrared Heaters for Canada.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases
and heating products for specic uses. Your
local authority can advise you about these.
The primary purpose of outdoor patio heaters
is to provide heating of residential and non-
residential spaces. Properly used, this heater
provides safe economical heating.
We cannot foresee every use which may be
made of our heaters. CHECK WITH YOUR
LOCAL FIRE SAFETY AUTHORITY IF YOU
HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT HEATER USE.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Some people
are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others. Early signs of carbon monoxide
poisoning resemble the flu, with headaches,
dizziness, and/or nausea. If you have these
signs, the heater may not be working properly.
Get fresh air at once! Have heater serviced.
Propane/LP Gas: Propane/LP gas is odorless.
An odor-making agent is added to propane/LP
gas. The odor helps you detect a propane/LP
gas leak. However, the odor added to propane/
LP gas may fade. Propane/LP gas may be
present even though no odor exists.
Make certain you read and understand all
warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It
is your guide to safe and proper operation of
this heater.
Any guard or other protective
device removed for servicing
must be replaced prior to operat-
ing the heater.
Surface temperatures become very
hot when operating heater. Children
and adults should stay away to
avoid burns or clothing ignition.
Young children should be care-
fully supervised when they are
in the area of the heater.

Clothing or other flammable
materials should not be hung
from the heater, or placed on or
near heater.
Installation and repair should
bedonebyaqualiedservice
person. The heater should be
inspected before use and at least
annuallybyaqualiedservice
person. More frequent cleaning
may be required as necessary.
It is imperative that control
compartments, burners, and
circulating air passageways of
the heater be kept clean.
CAUTION: The gas pressure
regulator provided with this ap-
pliance must be used. This regu-
lator is set for an output pressure
of 11" W.C. (0.4 P.S.I.).
1. Install and use heater with care. Follow
all local ordinances and codes. In the ab-
sence of local ordinances and codes, refer
to the Standard for Storage and Handling
of Liqueed Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA
58, CAN/-B149 Installation CODE. This
instructs on the safe storage and handling
of propane/LP gases.
2. Use only propane/LP gas set up for vapor
withdrawal in a 20 lb. cylinder. Cylinder must
be constructed and marked in accordance
with specications for propane/LP cylinders
of the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT). The cylinder must be provided with
a shutoff valve terminating in a propane/LP
supply cylinder valve outlet. The valve must
have external threads and marked “Use with
Type 1” and a safety relief device having a
direct communication with the vapor space
of the cylinder. The cylinder used must in-
clude a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
3. Keep appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, paint
thinner, and other flammable vapors and
liquids. Dust is combustible. Do not use
heater in areas with high dust content.
SAFETY

Figure 1 - Clearances from Combustibles
4. Spillage of combustible liquids into the
flame could cause a re.
5. Do not place combustible table cloths on
heater table. If table cloth is used, do not
allow any part of cloth to hang over edge
of table into heat outlet area.
6. Table becomes warm in operation.
7. Minimum heater clearances from perma-
nent combustible construction:
Front, Back and sides 6" (15.2 cm), Top
36" (0.91 m) (see Figure 1).
8. Before each use, check heater for leaks.
Never use an open flame to check for a
leak. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and
water to all joints. Bubbles forming show
a leak. Correct all leaks at once.
9. Keep propane/LP cylinder below 100° F
(38° C).
10. Use only the hose and factory preset
regulator provided with the heater. Do not
adjust regulator as gas leaks may occur.
11. Locate hose properly, keeping it out of
pathways where people may trip over it or
in areas where the hose may be subjected
to accidental damage. Keep hose away
from burner on inside of heater.
12. Check hose before each use of heater.
Disconnect hose with 9/16" wrench.
Check for tears and abrasions in hose and
on regulator. If highly worn or cut, replace
with hose specied by manufacturer be-
fore using heater.
13. Do not alter heater. Keep heater in its origi-
nal state. Do not use heater if altered.
14. Locate heater on stable and level surface.
15. Do not operate heater while sleeping or
leave heater unattended.

2. Close propane/LP cylinder valve (rotate
knob clockwise).
BURNER OPERATION
Visually inspect burner for proper operation.
A correct burner pattern shows blue flames
with some yellow tipping and top half of emit-
ter glows red.
An incorrect burner pattern shows large
flames more than half the height of emitter
coming outside of emitter. Flame should stay
contained inside emitter.

OPERATION
Make sure to route chain through handle on
tank and NOT around tank valve. Chain must
not interfere with valve. Attach hooks on both
ends of chains to ring retainers installed on
burner support plate. See Figure 7, page 6.
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
1. Turn heater valve to OFF position.
2. Turn cylinder supply valve fully counter
clockwise to OPEN position.
3. Use a noncorrosive leak detection solution
to check the connection for leaks before
attempting to light heater. If leak is found,
turn cylinder valve to CLOSE and do not
use until all leaks are corrected.

Chain
Use only a 20 lb. propane/LP cylinder (not

cylinder selection. Connect hose/regulator
assembly to propane cylinder (see Figure
12). Hose should already be connected to
heater. When connecting regulator assembly
to cylinder valve, hand tighten nut clockwise
to a positive stop. DO NOT use a wrench to
tighten. Use of a wrench may damage quick
closing coupling nuts and result in a hazard-
ous condition.
Route retention chain through at least one
handle of propane/LP tank (see Figure 12).

only if the cylinder is disconnected and
removed from the appliance.
3. Store propane/LP cylinder in safe manner.
Refer to Chapter 5 of Standard for Storage
and Handling of Liqueed Petroleum Gases,
ANSI/NFPA 58. Follow all local codes.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a
well-ventilated area out of reach of children.
Disconnected cylinders must have threaded
valve plugs tightly installed, and must not be
stored in a building, garage or any other en-
closed area. Never store cylinders near high
heat, open flame, or where temperatures
exceed 100° F (38° C).

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Never attempt to
service heater while it is con-
nected to propane/LP supply,
operating, or hot. Severe burns
can occur. Any guard or other
protective device removed for
servicing must be replaced prior
to operating the heater.
1. Keep heater clean. Remove any debris
from ventilation openings.
2. Inspect heater before each use. Check
connections for leaks. Apply mixture of
liquid soap and water to connections.
Bubbles forming show a leak that must
be corrected. Correct all leaks at once.
3. Inspect hose/regulator assembly before
each use. If hose is highly worn or cut,
replace it immediately. At least annually,
remove hose/regulator assembly from
heater to inspect entire length of hose.
4. Spiders and insects can create a danger-
ous condition that may damage heater or
make it unsafe. Keep burner area clean
of all spiders, webs, or insects.
5. Have heater inspected yearly by a quali-
ed service person.
