6. Do not locate fuel gas containers or fuel supply
hoses within 20 feet/6 meters of the heater's
blower outlet.
7. Do not direct the heater toward any propane gas
container within 20 ft. (6m) of the heater's air
discharge. When ducting is attached to the heater,
the heater's hot air discharge is the end of the
ducting.
8. Do not block air intakes or discharge outlets of the
heater. Doing so may cause improper combus-
tion or damage to heater components leading to
property damage.
9. The hose assembly shall be visually inspected on
a daily basis after heater relocation and when the
heater is in use. If it is evident there is excessive
abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut, it must be
replaced prior to the heater being put into opera-
tion. The hose assembly shall be protected from
building materials, and contact with hot surfaces
during use. The hose assembly shall be that
specified by the manufacturer. See parts list.
10. Check for gas leaks and proper function upon
heater installation, when relocating, and after
servicing. Refer to leak check instructions within
installation section of this manual.
11. This heater should be inspected for proper
operation by a qualified service person before
each use and at least annually.
12. Always turn off the gas supply to the heater if the
heater is not going to be used.
13. This heater is equipped with a 20 amp three-
prong (grounding) plug for your protection
against shock hazard and must be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. Failure to use a properly grounded
receptacle can result in electrical shock, per-
sonal injury, or death.
14. If gas flow is interrupted and flame goes out,
do not relight the heater until you are sure that
all gas that may have accumulated has cleared
away. In any event, do not relight the heater for
at least 5 minutes.
15. The heater requires a minimum 500 gallon/1892
liter propane tank for proper gas supply pressure
and operation. A larger tank may be required
depending upon operating temperature condi-
tions at the site.

supply valve.
18. The heater may start at any time when used with
a thermostat.
19. When the heater is used in an enclosed or par-
tially enclosed permanent or temporary structure,
tests for the presence of carbon monoxide shall
be made within one hour after the start of each
shift, and at least four hours thereafter. Immedi-
ate, more frequent testing may be dictated by job
conditions.
