CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage heater
and render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed
air may help clear away smaller particles.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Disassemble the reflector, unscrew the reflector spacer,
take off the screen, take down one side of protective guards. Then take the glass tube from the
heater and wash and clear. Reassemble the glass tube and the rest of parts.
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.
Storage

Turn control knob OFF.
Disconnect LP cylinder.

passages.
Note: Wait until heater is completely cooled off before covering.
During periods of extended inactivity or when transporting:
Turn control knob OFF.
Disconnect LP cylinder and move to a secure, well-ventilated location outdoors.
Store heater upright in an area sheltered from direct contact with inclement weather (such as rain,
