Use this heater only with a propane/LP vapor withdrawal supply system. See Chapter 5 of the Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA 58 and the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA B149.2. Your local library or fire department will have these booklets. The amount of propane/LP gas ready for use from propane/LP tanks varies. Two factors decide this amount: 1. The amount of propane/LP gas in the tank(s) 2. The temperature of tank(s) The chart below shows the number of 100-pound tanks needed to run this heater. Do not operate this product with any tank smaller than 100 pounds. Temperature (°F) Number At Tank of tanks 40° 3 32° (Use 20° larger 0° tank -10° below -20° 40°F) Less gas is vaporized at lower temperatures. You may need a larger tank in colder weather. Your local propane/LP gas dealer will help you select the proper supply system. The minimum surrounding air temperature rating for each heater is -20°F. VENTILATION WARNING: Follow the minimum fresh, outside air ventilation requirements. If proper fresh, outside air ventilation is not provided, carbon monoxide poisoning can occur. Provide proper fresh, outside air ventilation before running heater. INSTALLATION WARNING: Review and understand the warnings in the Safety Information section, page 2. They are needed to safely operate this heater. Follow all local codes when using this heater. WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections for leaks after installing or servicing. 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. 1. Provide propane/LP supply system (see Propane/LP Supply). 2. Connect POL fitting on hose/regulator assembly to propane/LP tank(s). Turn POL fitting counterclockwise into threads on tank. Tighten firmly using a wrench. IMPORTANT:Tighten regulator with black adjustment knob pointing down. Pointing adjustment knob down protects regulator from weather damage. 3. Connect hose to inlet connector. Tighten firmly using a wrench. IMPORTANT:Extra hose or piping may be used if needed. Install extra hose or piping between hose/regulator assembly and propane/LP tank. You must use the regulator supplied with the heater. 4. Open propane/LP supply valve on propane/LP tank(s) slowly. Note:If not opened slowly, excess-flow check valve on pro- pane/LP tank will stop gas flow. If this happens, you may hear a click inside the regulator assembly. To reset the excess flow check valve, close propane/LP supply valve and open again slowly. Propane/LP Tank Supply Valve Hose POL Fitting Regulator Adjustment Knob (pointing down) Provide at least three square feet of fresh, outside air for each Figure 3 - Regulator With Adjustment Knob Pointing Down 100,000 Btu/Hr of rating. This heater requires a fresh air opening of at least 11.25 square feet. Provide extra fresh air if more heaters are being used.

Adjust regulator between 7 and 20 psig (see Figure 5). Note: Higher regulator setting will allow heater to produce more heat. 6. Check all connections for leaks. 7. Close propane/LP supply valve. WARNING: Do not adjust regulator below 7 psig or above 20 psig. Heater may not run properly.

They are needed to safely operate this heater. Follow all local codes when using this heater. TO START HEATER 1. Follow all installation, ventilation and safety information. 2. Locate heater on stable and level surface. Make sure strong drafts do not blow into front or rear of heater. 3. Plug power cord of heater into a three-prong, grounded extension cord. Extension cord must be at least six feet long. Extension cord must be UL listed. Extension Cord Size Requirement Up to 50 feet long, use 18 AWG rated cord. 51 to 100 feet long, use 16 AWG rated cord. 101 to 200 feet long, use 14 AWG rated cord. 4. Plug extension cord into a 120 volt/60 hertz, three-hole, grounded outlet. 5. Open propane/LP supply valve on propane/LP tank(s) slowly. Note: If not opened slowly, excess-flow check valve on pro- pane/LP tank will stop gas flow. If this happens, you may hear a click inside the regulator assembly. To reset the excess flow check valve, close propane/LP supply valve and open again slowly. 6. Make sure regulator is set between 7 and 20 psig. Note: Higher regulator setting will allow heater to produce more heat. WARNING: Do not adjust regulator below 7 psig or above 20 psig. Heater may not run properly. 7. Turn on/off switch to the ON position. Adjust thermostat to desired setting. If heater does not start, thermostat setting may be too low. Tur...
