TABLE OF CONTENTS
WARNING:
Combustion by-products produced when using this product contain carbon monoxide, a chemical know to the state of
California for cause cancer and birth defects (and other reproductive harm).
NOTICE: Not for use in a "dwelling home" in California.
Every time hose or tank is connected to unit, connection
must be checked for leaks in one or more ways: Apply
soapy water to connection, look for bubbles, listen for
hiss of escaping gas, feel for extreme cold, smell for
rotten egg odor. Do not use if leaking!
Any changes to this heater or its controls can be
dangerous.
Some people-pregnant women, persons with heart
or lung disease, anemia, those under the inuence of
alcohol, those at high altitudes - are more affected by
carbon monoxide than others.
If the recreational or commercial enclosure does not
have a window or roof vent that is open, DO NOT USE
THIS HEATER inside.

GENERAL INFORMATION:
• This heater is safe for indoor use in small recreational enclosures, having means for providing combustion air and ventilation, such
as enclosed porches, cabins, shing huts, trailers, tent trailers, tents, truck caps and vans. It may be used for emergency indoor
heating when connected to a disposable 1 lb. propane cylinder and for indoor use in commercial enclosures, having means
for providing combustion air and ventilation, such as construction trailers or temporary work enclosures.
• When the heater is cold or at room temperature, it will take a few minutes for the burner to turn bright orange. This is normal
and the heater is working properly. Also, during the initial lighting, the oil used during manufaturing process needs to burn off. This
can take up to 60 minutes of continuous burning. Some odor and yellow ames may occourr during this time but will diminish after the
burn-in period.
• After a few hours of operation the upper burner plate will discolor due to the heat of normal operation. This is normal and does not
affect the safe operation of the unit.
• It is recommended not to use the heater in windy conditions. The heater may utter reducing the effectiveness of the
appliance and could have excessive pilot outages.
• When the unit is lit, there should be about a quarter inch border that will not turn bright orange. This is normal.
• When operating the heater at altitudes over 7,000 FT. above sea level, the unit may not burn as bright as in lower altitudes.
This is normal. At higher altitudes, the heater may shut-off. If this happens, provide fresh air, wait 5 minutes and re-light.
Due to local atmospheric conditions heater may not re-light.
• When moving heater when lit or bumping heater setting it down, tip over switch may shut off heater. If this happens,
re-light.
• Operating time will vary depending on the heater setting and the supply cylinder size. See chart and "Cold Weather
Operations" section.
• NOTE: This HEATER MAY BE OPERATED WITH (1) OR (2) DISPOSABLE 1 LB. PROPANE CYLINDERS OR WITH (1)
REMOTE REFILLABLE PROPANE CYLINDER MAX. 20 LBS USING BOTH (1) Dyna-Glo Model # HAKITDG 12’ Extension
Hose and (1) Dyna-Glo Model # HAKITDG Fuel Filter (Sold Separately)
COLD WEATHER OPERATION:
• Cold weather is generally dened as ambient temperatures below 32 degrees F.
• 1 lb. propane cylinders have difculty producing sufcient gas at lower temperatures and can “freeze-up”, reducing the time of
operation by as much as 50-70%. For this reason, it is recommended to use only 20 lb. propane tanks under these conditions.
• If a 1 lb. tank is used in cold weather, such as in an ice shing hut, following are some operating suggestions;
1. Expect operating times to be signicantly reduced.
2. Never use only a single 1 lb. tank on the Heat Around Elite unit, Model HA2360.
3. Never set the heater directly on the ice. Set the heater on a rigid piece of ame retardant insulation and make sure the
ventilation slots on the bottom of the heater are not obstructed.
4. Elevate the heater slightly above the ground level. Insure the unit is level and secure and cannot be knocked over.
5. Keep the tank access door open. This provides some additional heat to warm the 1 lb. cylinder.
6. Adequate ventilation and combustion air must be provided.
7. Maintain all clearances as specied on Page 4.
Carefully watch the Heater for signs of the 1 lb. cylinder "freezing-up". If the lower portion of the burner starts to turn from
orange to blue and begins sputtering immediately shut off the heater and remove it from any enclosure.
WARNING:

NEVER LEAVE THE HEATER
UNATTENDED WHILE BURNING!
