Location; Operating Instructions - Mr. Heater MH18CH Manual Del Proprietário

LOCATION

Although this heater incorporates a "tip over" switch, the heater
and LP-Gas supply cylinder must be located on a hard, flat,
level surface to minimize the risk of accidental tipping. The LP
Gas supply cylinder should be adequately restrained to prevent
accidental tipping. DO NOT OPERATE this heater with the
supply cylinder in any other than the upright position.
This appliance must be installed only in locations where the
potential for physical damage to the appliance (i.e., due to
physical contact) is reduced to a minimum.
Use of this heater in a draft/windy area may decrease its
efficiency. If possible, operate the unit in a draft free area or turn
the face of the heater away from the draft.
WARNING
NEVER USE A FORK LIFT TRUCK TYPE
CYLINDER.
The connection of Model MH18CH to an LP-Gas cylinder must
be made in a well ventilated area using the regulator and hose
assembly supplied with the appliance. DO NOT attempt to adjust
this regulator. It has been preset at the factory to provide safe and
proper operation of the appliance.
The heater must be located at least six feet away from any LP-Gas
cylinder and must not be directed toward any LP-Gas cylinder
within 20 feet. If more than one heater is used, they and the
supply cylinders must be separated by at least 20 feet.
The gas supply must be turned off at the LP-Gas supply cylinder
when the heater is not in use.
When the heater is to be stored indoors, the connection between
the LP-Gas supply cylinder and the heater must be disconnected
and the cylinder removed from the heater and stored in
accordance with Chapter 5 of the Standard for the Storage and
Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NF-PA 58 (U.S.), OR
CAN/CGA B149.2 (Canada). Never store LP tanks indoors.
Piping must be clean and free from scale or burr.
Before attempting to ignite the appliance, all gas fittings and
connections must be thoroughly checked for gas leaks. Apply a
small amount of a mild soap and water solution to all fittings and
connections and observe for escaping bubbles. If any leaks are
detected, shut off the gas supply to the appliance immediately.
Wait a minimum of five minutes, repair the leak(s) and retest for
leakage. Dry all fittings and connections after leak testing.
WARNING
NEVER USE A FLAME FOR GAS LEAK TESTING.

ODOR FADING - NO ODOR DETECTED
• Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot
smell the odor of the man-made chemical added to
propane (LP) or natural gas. You must determine if you
can smell the odorant in these fuel gases.
• Learn to recognize the odor of propane (LP) gas and
natural gas. Local propane (LP) gas dealers will be more
than happy to give you a scratch and sniff pamphlet.
Use it to become familiar with the fuel gas odor.
• Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being
around an odor for a period of time can affect your
sensitivity to that particular odor. Odors present in
animal confinement buildings can mask fuel gas odor.
• The odorant in propane (LP) gas and natural gas
is colorless and the intensity of its odor can fade
under some circumstances.
• If there is an underground leak, the movement of gas
through the soil can filter the odorant.
• Propane (LP) gas odor may differ in intensity at different
levels. Since Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air, there
may be more odor at lower levels.
• Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you
continue to detect any gas odor, no matter how small,
treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as
discussed previously.
