Operation
TM21PATHTRSS1
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR COMPLETE SHUTDOWN
Make leakage solution by mixing 1-part liquid dish soap and 3-parts water.
Spoon or brush several drops (or use squirt bottle) of the solution onto the gas hose/regulator and regulator/cylinder and hose
connections.
Turn on the gas cylinder valve. Inspect the connections and look for bubbles.
1. If no bubbles appear, the connection is safe.
2. If bubbles appear, there is leakage. Loosen and re-tighten this connection. If it still leaks, please call customer service.
1. Ensure that the LP gas tank valve is OFF.
2. Push the control knob in, turn to OFF, and wait 5 minutes for any gas to
clear.
3. Turn the LP tank valve ON.
4. Push the control knob in and slowly rotate to HIGH. This will activate the
built-in igniter and light the burner. Once the burner is lit, hold the control
knob in for 30 seconds and then release. If the burner fails to remain lit or
becomes extinguished, repeat step 4 before attempting to relight.
5. Turn the control knob from LOW to HIGH to the desired heat setting.
1. Please turn the knob to LOW first, then push and turn to OFF for complete
shut off.
2. Turn the LP gas tank valve OFF before removing the LP gas tank.
If you experience any ignition problem, turn off theheaterand gas supply, and consult “TROUBLESHOOTING” page.
Visually check the burner flame against the illustrations below:
Flame should be blue with slight yellow tips.
You should see a smaller flame in LOW position than seen on HIGH. Perform flame check prior to each use. If only low flame is
seen, refer to “Burner flame is low” on the “TROUBLESHOOTING” page.

Operation (cont.)
TM21PATHTRSS1
If you are unable to ignite the heater using the normal method, please use the ignition bar with a match to reach the burner for
ignition through the hole on the bottom of burner diffuser. Insert the match from the back side of the burner assembly which is
opposite of the control panel.
WARNING: If at any time you are unable to light the burner and
smell gas, wait 5 minutes to allow gas to dissipate before attempting
to light the heater.
WARNING: DO NOT touch or move the heater for at least 45
minutes after use. Allow the emitter and dome to cool before
touching.
CAUTION: Avoid inhaling fumes emitted from the heater’s rst
use. Smoke and odor from the burning of oils used in manufacturing
will appear. Both smoke and odor will dissipate after approximately
30 minutes. The heater should NOT produce thick black smoke.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Abrasive cleaners will damage this product.
NOTE: A slight pop is normal when burner is extinguished.
Never use oven cleaner to clean any part of the heater.
Do not clean any heater part in a self-cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the finish.
More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative that control compartment, burners and circulating air
passageways of the heater be kept clean.
Spiders and insects can create a dangerous condition that may damage heater or make it unsafe. Keep the burner area clean of
all spiders, webs or insects. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help clear away smaller
particles.
Inspect the heater before each use.
Have heater inspected annually and repairs should be made by a qualified service person.
Check heater immediately if any of the following conditions exist:
a. The smell of gas in conjunction with extreme yellow tipping of burner flames.
b. Heater does not reach proper temperature.
c. Heater’s glow is excessively uneven.
d. Burner makes popping noises during use.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Keep dome and emitter clean at all times.
Do not clean heater with combustible or corrosive cleaners. Use warm, soapy water.
This heater should be thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis.
After a period of storage and/or no use, check for leaks, burner obstructions and inspect for any abrasion, wear, and cuts to the
hose.

Cleaning & Maintenance
TM21PATHTRSS1
CLEANING
MAINTENANCE
STORAGE
Wipe surfaces clean with mild dish detergent or baking soda.
For stubborn surfaces use a citrus-based degreaser and a nylon scrubbing brush.
Rinse clean with water.
NOTE:
1. While cleaning the unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly
dry at all times. Do not submerge the control valve assembly. If the gas control is
submerged in water, do NOT use it. It must be replaced.
2. Use high-quality automobile wax to help maintain the appearance of the heater. Apply to
exterior surfaces from the pole down. Do not apply to emitter screen or domes
Keep exterior surfaces clean.
Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep the controls, burner and circulating air passageways clean.
Signs of possible blockage include:
Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
The heater does NOT reach the desired temperature.
The heater glow is excessively uneven.
The heater makes popping noises.
NOTE:
In a salt-air environment (such as near an ocean) corrosion occurs
more quickly than normal. Frequently check for corroded areas and
repair them promptly.
Between uses or during periods of extended inactivity:
Turn control knob to the "OFF" position.
Disconnect the LP cylinder and move to a secure, well-ventilated location outdoors.
Store the heater upright in an area sheltered from direct contact with inclement weather (such as rain, sleet, hail, snow, dust and
debris).
NOTE:
Never leave LP gas tank exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat.
If desired, use cover(s) to protect the heater and help prevent buildup
in air passages.
CAUTION:
Wait until heater is cool before covering.

Care and Maintenance
Store furniture in an upright position. Be careful to never allow water to build up in frames as this
will cause corrosion and freeze damage in cold climates. Wash all frames with a solution of mild
soap and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft absorbent cloth towel. Frames can be
treated with a liquid wax for maximum protection against UV rays and/or salty, damp air. If your
set includes cushions, slings, and/or an umbrella they may be cleaned by hand with a solution of
soap and water with a clean water rinse. (Never machine wash cushions, slings or umbrella covers
as this will result in shrinkage or damage). After cleaning cushions tip on end and allow to drip
dry. (Never use a commercial or home dryer to tumble dry fabric goods). Do not use bleach or
solvents to clean any product! This will void the warranty.
