to safely operate this heater. Fol-
low all local codes when using
this heater.
WARNING: Test all gas piping
and connections for leaks after
installation or servicing. Never
use an open ame to check for
a leak. Apply a noncorrosive

assembly to propane tank(s). Turn POL
tting counterclockwise into threads on
tank. Tighten rmly using wrench.
IMPORTANT: Position regulator so that
hose leaving the regulator is in a hori-
zontal position (see Figure 4). This places
the regulator vent in the proper position to
protect it from the weather.

this amount:
1. The amount of propane gas in tank(s)
2. The temperature of tank(s)
