6FØRO RH13000 - MANUAL
EN
• Any guard or other protective device removed for servicing the heater must be replaced
before operating the heater.
• Change the gas cylinder in a well ventilated area, away from any inflammation source.
• Check that the regulator seal is fitted and that it is in good condition.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes of cylinder housing.
• Adults and children should stay from high temperature surface to avoid bums or clothing
ignition.
• Children should be carefully supervised when they are in the area of the heater.
• Clothing or other flammable materials should not be hung on the heater or placed on or
near the heater.
• Use may replace the rubber hose by himself and note the length of the hose is 60cm. And
the hose must be required by the national conditions.
• LP Characteristics-Flammable, explosive, heavier than air-settles in low areas.
• In its natural state, propane has no odor. For your safety, an odorant is added that smells
like rotten cabbage.
• Contact with liquid LP can cause freeze burns to skin.
• This heater is shipped from the factory for LP gas use only
• Use only EEC approved “10KG” Gas cylinders LP gas cylinders (same as commonly used on
gas grills) with safety valves. These valves can be quickly identifies by their external and
internal threads.
• When heater is not in use, turn Control Valve OFF. Close the valve of the gas cylinder or the
regulator after use
• The use of this appliance in enclosed areas can be dangerous and is “PROHIBITED”.
1. For use outdoors or in amply ventilated areas.
2. An amply ventilated area must have minimum of 25% of the surface area open.
3. The surface area is the sum of the walls surface.

7FØRO RH13000 - MANUAL EN
• 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 45cm (18”) and sides
70cm (28”) minimum.
• Heater must be placed on level firm ground.
• Never operate heater in an explosive atmosphere like areas where gasoline or other
flammable liquids or vapors are stored.
GAS REQUIREMENTS
• Use LPG, propane and butane only.
• Maximum inlet pressure of propane regulator must not exceed 100 PSI.
• 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 codes, with the standard
for 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.
HEATER STAND & LOCATION
Ceiling
Wall

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.
• The heater must be checked with a full cylinder.
• Make sure the safety control valve is in the OFF position.
• 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.
• Leakage test points. See pictures below.
• Turn the gas supply ON.
FUEL GAS ODOR
LP gas and natural gas have manmade odorants added specifically for detection of fuel gas
leaks. If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the fuel gas. Since Propane (LP) is
heavier than air you should smell for the gas odor low to the floor.
ANY GAS ODOR IS YOUR SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE ACTION.
• Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas. Do not operate any electrical switches.
Do not pull any power supply or extension cords. Do not light matches or any other source
of flame. Do not use your telephone.
• Get everyone out of the building and away from the area immediately.
• Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air and may settle in low area. When you have reason to
suspect a propane leak, keep out of all low area.
• Use your neighbor’s phone and call your fuel gas supplier and your fire department. Do not
reenter the building or area.
• Stay out of the building and away from the area until declared safe by the firefighters and
your fuel gas supplier.
• Finally, let the fuel gas service person and the firefighters check for escaped gas. Have
them air out the building and area before you return. Properly trained service people must
repair any leaks, check for further leakages, and then relight the appliance for you.

EN
SERVICE & MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
lf the pilot heater fails to operate correctly, contact place of purchase or their authorised
service agent for advice and service.
DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIRS YOURSELF.
Periodic maintenance should performed at intervals not exceeding 6 months or when obvious
faults exist. (i.e.) flame burning abnormality or burner discolouration. Flame abnormality or
burner discolouration is generally a sign of gas supply blockage or blocked burner ports.
To clean the burner ports, remove the reflector assembly by removing the three nuts at the
top of the reflector. The mesh screen may than be extracted by removing the four retention
screws at the base of the mesh screen and four screws at the top of the screen. Remove the
two screws retaining the burner assembly, Rotate the burner assembly slightly then remove
the burner assembly upwards.
Care should always be taken to avoid damage to the gas piping and Piezo ignition lead.
The burner and mesh screen may than be cleaned by compressed air. Assembly is a reversal
of the above procedure.
If the pilot is blocked by debris, spider webs etc. the pilot flame may be small and the flame
failure device may have not heated up enough for the main burner to come on. If this happens
it will be necessary to clean the pilot and its gas tube.
To clean the pilot, remove the burner and pilot cover as detai1ed above, Inspect the pilot
injector and tubing for blockage. If obstructed clean with compressed air. Clean the flame
failure device. Assembly is a reversal of the above procedure.
