DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
•This heater is a combustion appliance.
All combustion appliances produce carbon
monoxide (CO) during the combustion
process. This product is designed to produce
extremely minute, non-hazardous amounts of
CO if used and maintained in accordance with
all warnings and instructions. Do not block air
flow into or out of the heater.
•Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces
flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches,
dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You
can’t see it and you can’t smell it. It’s an
invisible killer. If these symptoms are present
during operation of this product, get fresh air
immediately!
•For outdoor use only.
•Never use inside house, or other unventilated
or enclosed areas.
•This heater consumes air (oxygen). Do not
use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid
endangering your life.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,
service or maintenance can cause property
damage, injury or death. Read the installation,
operation and maintenance instructions
thoroughly before installing or servicing
this equipment.
DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
•Never store propane near high heat, open
flames, direct sunlight, other ignition sources
or where temperatures exceed 120 degrees
F (49°C).
•Propane vapors are heavier than air and can
accumulate in low places. If you smell gas,
leave the area immediately.
•Never install or remove the propane cylinder
•This heater is red hot during use and can
ignite flammables that are too close to the
burner. Keep flammables at least 3 feet from
sides & 3 feet from top. Keep gasoline and
other flammable liquids and vapors well
away from heater.
•Store the propane cylinder outdoors in
a well-ventilated space out of reach of
children. Never store the propane cylinder
in an enclosed area (house, garage etc.). If
heater is to be stored indoors, disconnect
the propane cylinder for outdoor storage.
WARNING
We cannot foresee every use which may be
made of our heaters.
Check with your local fire safety authority if
you have questions about heater use.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases
and heat producing products for specific uses.
Your local authorities can advise you about
these.
If no local codes exist, follow National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. In Canada, installation
must conform to local codes. If no local codes
exist, follow the current National standards of
CANADA CAN/CGA-B 149.2.

WARNING
• This product is fueled by propane gas.
Propane gas is invisible, odorless and
flammable. An odorant is normally added to
help detect leaks and can be described as a
“rotten egg” smell. The odorant can fade over
time so leaking gas is not always
detectable by smell alone.
•Propane gas is heavier than air and
leaking propane will sink to the lowest
level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources
including matches, lighters, sparks or open
flames of any kind many feet away from the
original leak. Use only propane gas set up for
vapor withdrawal.
•Store or use propane gas in compliance with
local ordinances and codes or with ANS/NFPA
58. Turn off propane when not in use.
WARNING
• Alert children and adults to the hazards
of high surface temperatures. Stay away
from these surfaces to avoid burning skin
or igniting clothing.
•Carefully supervise young children when in the
vicinity of the heater.
•Do not hang clothing or any other flammable
materials from the heater, or place on or near
the heater.
•Replace any guard or protective device
removed for servicing the appliance prior
to placing back in service.
•Installation and repair should be done by a
qualified service person. The heater should
be inspected before use and annually by
a qualified service person. More frequent
cleaning may be required as necessary. It
is imperative that the control compartment,
burners and circulating air passageway of
the appliance be kept clean.
CAUTION
SERVICE SAFETY
• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Make
sure propane cylinder valve outlet is clean.
•During set up, check all connections and
fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use
a flame.
•Use as a heating appliance only. Never alter in
any way or use with any device.
