Check the heater immediately if any of the following occurs:
– The heater does not reach temperature.
– The burner makes a popping noise during use (a slight noise is normal when the burner is extinguished).
– Smell of gas in conjunction with extreme yellow tipping of the burner ames.
The LP regulator/hose assembly must be located out of pathways where people may trip over it or in an area where the hose will not be subject to accidental damage.
Any guard or other protective device removed for servicing the heater must be replaced before operating the heater.
Adults and children should stay away from high-temperature surfaces to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
Children should be carefully supervised when they are in the area of the heater.

again;
The recommended frequency of checking the tubing or the exible hose (at least once per month and each time the cylinder is changed). If it shows signs of cracking,
splitting or other deterioration it shall be exchanged for a new hose of the same length and of the equivalent quality;

HEATER STAND AND LOCATION

The heater is primarily for outdoor use only. Always ensure that adequate fresh air ventilation is provided.
Always maintain proper clearance to combustible materials, i.e. top 100 cm and sides 100 cm minimum.
The heater must be placed on level ground. Never operate the heater in an explosive atmosphere like in areas where gasoline or other ammable liquids or vapors are stored.
To protect the heater from strong wind, anchor the base securely to the ground with screws.

GAS REQUIREMENTS

Use propane or butane gas only.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly to be used must conform to local standard codes.
The installation must conform to local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the standard for the storage and handling of liquid petroleum gases.

  A dented, rusted or damaged propane tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your tank supplier. Never use a propane tank with a damaged valve connection.
The propane tank must be arranged to provide for vapor withdrawal from the operating cylinder.
Never connect an unregulated propane tank to the heater.
LEAKAGE TEST
Gas connections on the heater are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment. A complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in shipment or excessive pressure being applied to the heater.
Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. The soap solution can be applied with a spray bottle, brush or rag. Soap bubbles will appear in case of a leak.
The heater must be checked with a full cylinder.
Make sure the safety control valve is in the OFF position.
Turn the gas supply ON.
In case of a leak, turn off the gas supply.
Tighten any leaking settings, then turn the gas supply on and recheck.
Never leak test while smoking.
