operate this space heater. Follow all local ordinances and
codes when using this space heater.
WARNING: TEST ALL GAS PIPING AND
CONNECTIONS FOR LEAKS AFTER

1. Provide Propane / L.P. supply system (see Propane / L.P.
Supply section).
2. Connect POL fitting on hose / regulator assembly to
Propane / L.P. tank(s). Turn POL fitting counterclockwise
into threads on tank. Tighten firmly using wrench.
IMPORTANT: Tighten regulator with black adjustment
knob pointing down. Pointing adjustment knob down
protects regulator from weather damage.

wrench. (Fig. 2)
IMPORTANT: Extra hose or piping may be used if needed.
Install extra hose or piping between hose/regulator
assembly and Propane / L.P. tank. You must use the
regulator supplied with heater.
4. Open propane supply valve on
Propane / L.P. tank(s)
slowly.
Note: If not opened slowly, excess-flow check valve on
Propane / L.P. 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 / L.P.
supply valve and open again slowly.
5. Adjust regulator between 7 and 20 PSIG.
Note: Higher regulator setting will allow heater to produce
more heat.

BELOW 7 PSIG OR ABOVE 20 PSIG.
