FT. above sea level, the unit may not burn as brightas in lower altitudes. This is normal. At higheraltitudes, the heater may shut-off. If this happens,provide fresh air, wait 5 minutes and re-light. Due tolocal atmospheric conditions heater may not re-light.Operating time will vary based on the temperatureof the surroundings and if running the heater onlow, medium, or high setting. Rough guidelines areas follows: Single 1lb cylinder (1.5 to 6hrs); 2 x 1lbcylinders (3 to 12 hrs); 20lb cylinder (24 to 108hrs); 2 x20lb cylinders (48 to 216hrs). Heater may be operatedfrom quick disconnect, one or both regulated inlets.Due to the properties of LP gas, run times can besignificantly reduced when operating continuouslyat temperatures below 20ºF. Use of a 20 lb. tank isrecommended in these conditions.When moving heater when lit or bumping heater settingit down, tip over switch may shut off heater. If thishappens, re-light.

If necessary, clean interiorof casing assembly with a vacuum cleaner or apply airpressure. Do not damage any components within casingassembly when you are cleaning.8 Inspect and clean main burner orifice located at bottomof burner venturi tube, by using a vacuum or apply airpressure at orifice opening.9 Inspect and clean pilot (mounted to bracket) by using avacuum or apply air pressure through the holes in thepilot indicated by the arrows in Figure 2.WARNING: Never use needles, wires, or similarcylindrical objects to clean the pilot to avoid damagingthe calibrated ruby that controls the gas flow.10 Apply air pressure into ceramic tile of burner(s) assemblyand the venturi tube (with [2] air openings) to removedust, lint or spider webs.11 Reinstall lower baffle with (3) screws12 Slide back cover over (2) plastic hooks on top of heater.Make sure rear cover aligns with plastic side covers.Install (4) screws to hold in place.Caution: Do not try to adjust heating levels by usingthe propane tank shut-off valve.Warning: DO NOT OPERATE HEATER UNLESS CONTROLKNOB IS LOCKED IN A POSITION MARKED “HI”, “MD”,“LO”or “PILOT”. NEVER SET CONTROL KNOB BETWEENLOCKED POSITIONS. POOR COMBUSTION AND HIGHERLEVELS OF CARBON MONOXIDE MAY RESULT. To shut off heater, shut off propane at supply tank, allow heater to use-up propane in supply line untilheater shuts off, then slightly push down and turnControl Knob clockwise to “OFF” position.CAUTION: After turning heater off, wire guard willremain hot. Allow to thoroughly cool before storing.When not in use, the gas must be turned off at theLP-gas supply cylinder. As stated before allow heaterto use up propane in supply line until heater shuts off.When the LP-gas supply cylinder is not disconnectedfrom the heater, the heater and the cylinder must bestored outdoors, in a well ventilated space, out of reachof children, and must not be stored in a building, garageor any other enclosed area.Indoor storage of the heater is permissible only if thecylinder is disconnected and removed from the heater.Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach ofchildren and must not be stored in a building, garage orany other enclosed area.MAINTENANCE:Always keep the heater area clear and free from combustiblematerials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.Keep the vent areas (slots in the bottom and the top at the frontof heater) clear at all times.Visually inspect the pilot flame and burner periodically duringuse. The pilot flame should be blue in color (not yellow) and willextend beyond the thermocouple. The flame will surround thethermocouple just below the tip, see Figure 2. A slight yellowflame may occur where the pilot flame and main burner flamemeet. The burner(s) should be bright orange (with a slight bluecolor around the border, a red-orange haze that is visible on theceramic tile is acceptable) and without a noticeable flame.A blue flame that rolls out at the top of the ceramic tile indicatesan accumulation of dust, lint or spider webs inside the casingassembly and main burner assembly. If the pilot is yellow or theburner has a noticeable flame, cleaning may be required. Usethe following procedure to inspect the casing assembly and mainburner assembly.It is necessary to periodically check the burner(s) orifice andburner venturi tube to make sure they are clear of insects/nests orspider webs that may accumulate over time. A clogged tube canlead to a fire.Figure 21 Allow heater to thoroughly cool before performing anymaintenance.2 Remove disposable 1 lb. cylinder(s) from heater or turnOFF gas supply at remote cylinder valve, and disconnecthose from heater.3 Remove wire guard from front of heater by gentlybending to remove from holes in front cover.4 Remove (4) screws securing back cover to heater.
