• This heater is shipped from the factory for LP gas use only.
Use only Department of Transportation (DOT) approved “20 lb.” LP gas
cylinders (same as those commonly used on gas grills) with Acme / Type
1 / QCC safety valves. These valves can be quickly identified because
they have external and internal threads.
Never use an LP cylinder with a damaged body, valve, collar, or footring.
Dented or rusted LP cylinders may be hazardous and should be checked
by your LP gas supplier.
• The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawl.
• The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
• When heater is not in use, turn LP cylinder OFF.
Always perform a leak test on gas connections whenever a cylinder
is connected. Never use a flame to test for leaks. Do not smoke while
performing a leak test.
Caution: It is essential to keep the heater’s valve compartment,
burners, and circulating air passages clean.
Spiders and insects can create a dangerous condition that may damage
heater or make it unsafe. Keep burner area clean of all spiders, webs, or
insects.
• Inspect heater before each use.
Have heater inspected annually and repairs should be made by a
qualified service person.
• Check heater immediately if any of the following conditions exist:
The smell of gas in conjunction with extreme yellow tipping of burner
flames.
• Heater does not reach proper temperature.
Note: At temperatures less than 40ºF, heat output will be reduced.
• Heater’s glow is excessively uneven
• Burner makes popping noises during use.
Note: A slight pop is normal when burner is extinguished.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Keep dome and emitter clean
at all times.
Do not clean heater with combustible or corrosive cleaners. Use warm,
soapy water.
• Do not paint engine, engine access panel or dome.
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
Beware of Spiders
Spiders or small insects can
get into the burner tube or other
openings of your heater, and
spin webs or build nests. These
obstructions can lead to gas ow
problems. It is important to make
frequent inspections of these
areas and clean them when
necessary.
Before operating your heater for
the rst time, be sure to check
for obstructions that may have
occurred during shipment.

gasoline, and other flammable vapors or liquids.
Ensure that there is no obstruction to air ventilation.
Be sure all gas connections are tight and there are no leaks.
Be sure the access panel is clear of debris.
Be sure any component removed during assembly or servicing is
replaced and fastened prior to starting.
Before Lighting
Heater should be thoroughly inspected before each use, and by a
qualified service person at least annually.
• If relighting a hot heater, always wait at least 5 minutes.
Inspect the hose assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts,
or wear. Suspected areas should be leak tested. If the hose leaks, it
must be replaced prior to operation. Only use the replacement hose

WARNING
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Be careful when attempting
to manually ignite this heater.
Holding in the control know for
more than 10 seconds before
igniting the gas will cause a
ball of ame upon ignition.
If for some reason your ignitor fails to deliver a spark, your heater can
be started by inserting a lit match through the pilot view hole while
pushing the control knob in while in the PILOT position.
If you experience any ignition problem consult “Troubleshooting” on
page 16.
Caution: Avoid inhaling fumes emitted from the heater’s first use.
Smoke and odor from the burning of oils used in manufacturing will
appear. Both smoke and odor will dissipate after approximately 30
minutes. The heater should NOT produce thick black smoke.
Note: The burner may be noisy when initially turned on. To eliminate
excessive noise from the burner, turn the Control Knob to the Pilot position.
Then, turn the knob to the level of heat desired.
When heater is ON:
Emitter screen will become bright red due to intense heat. The color is
more visible at night.
Burner will display tongues of blue and yellow flame. These flames
should not be yellow or produce thick black smoke, indicating an
obstruction of airflow through the burners. The flame should be blue with
straight yellow tops.
If excessive yellow flame is detected, turn off heater and consult
“Troubleshooting” on page 16.
Re-lighting
Note: For your safety, Control Knob cannot be turned OFF without first
depressing Control Knob in PILOT position and then rotating it to OFF.
Turn Control Knob to OFF.
Wait at least 5 minutes, to let gas dissipate, before attempting to relight
Pilot.
Repeat the “Lighting” steps on prior page.
Shut Down
Turn Control Knob clockwise to Pilot. (Normally, burner will make a slight
popping sound when extinguished.) Burner will extinguish but Pilot will
remain ON.
To extinguish Pilot, depress Control Knob and continue to turn it
clockwise to OFF.
Turn Cylinder Valve clockwise to OFF and disconnect Regulator when
heater is not in use.
Note: After use, some discoloration of the emitter screen is normal.
WARNING
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Heater will be hot after use.
Handle with extreme care.

Maintenance
To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your heater, make sure
you perform the following maintenance activities on a regular basis:
Keep exterior surfaces clean.
Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive
cleaning agents.
While cleaning your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner
and pilot assembly dry at all times. Do not submerge the control valve
assembly. If the gas control is submerged in water, do NOT use it. It
must be replaced.
Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air
passageways clean. Signs of possible blockage include:
Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
Heater does NOT reach the desired temperature.
Heater glow is excessively uneven.
Heater makes popping noises.
Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous
condition can damage heater and render it unsafe for use. Clean burner
holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help
clear away smaller particles.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean dome and emitter with
warm soapy water if any carbon deposits develop.
Note: In a salt-air environment (such as near an ocean), corrosion occurs
more quickly than normal. Frequently check for corroded areas and repair
them promptly.
WARNING
FOR YOUR SAFETY
• Do NOT touch or move
heater for at least 45 minutes
after use.
• Dome is hot to the touch.
Allow dome to cool before
touching.
TIP:
Use high-quality automobile wax to help maintain the appearance of
your heater. Apply to exterior surfaces from the pole down. Do not
apply to emitter screen or domes.
