damaged,­replace­it­with­part­number­73786.
3.­ Turn­off­the­gas­at­the­LP-gas­supply­cylinder(s)­when­the­
heater is not in use.
4.­ When­the­heater­is­to­be­stored­indoors,­the­connection­
between­the­LP-gas­supply­cylinder(s)­and­the­heater­must­
be­disconnected­and­the­cylinder(s)­removed­from­the­heater­
and­stored­out­of­doors­and­in­accordance­with­Chapter­5­of­

shown.­In­this­regard,­use­only­the­hose,­regulator­and­cylinder­
connection­fitting­(called­a­POL­fitting)­supplied­with­the­heater.­
IMPORTANT­Match­the­color­stripe­on­the­hangtag­attached­to­
the hose assembly with the color on the label located near the
