SAFETY CHECK
CHECK FOR LEAKS
Note:
All connections on this heater have been checked for leakage at the factory. Follow these steps to
check regulator/valve/cylinder connections before operating:
1) Make leak-testing solution by mixing 1 part liquid dish soap and 3 parts water.
2) Spoon or brush several drops (or use squirt bottle) of the solution onto regulator & valve
connections, regulator & cylinder connections and illustrated connection joints.
3) Turn on gas cylinder valve. Inspect the connections and look for bubbles.
4) If no bubbles appear, the connection is safe.
5) If bubbles appear, there is leakage. Loosen and re-tighten this connection. If connection still leaks,
please call customer service: 1-866-814-0585.
1) The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal;
2) The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
