WARNING
The products described in this manual are pro-
pane direct-fired, forced air heaters. Propane
forced air heaters are primarily intended for use
for temporary heating of buildings under construc-
tion, alteration or repair. Direct-fired means that
all of the combustion products of the heater enter
the heated space. This appliance is rated at 98%
combustion efficiency, but does produce small
amounts of carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans can tolerate
only small amounts of carbon monoxide and so
precautions should be taken to provide proper
ventilation. Failure to provide proper ventilation in
accordance with the instructions in this manual
can result in death.
DANGER
People with breathing problems should consult a
physician before using this heater.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resem-
ble the flu. Symptoms of improper ventilation /
carbon monoxide poisoning are:
Headache • Dizziness • Nausea • Dry Mouth
Sore Throat • Burning of Nose and Eyes
If you experience any of these symptoms:
GET FRESH AIR AT ONCE! Have your heater
serviced and check for proper ventilation. Some
people are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others. These include: pregnant women, those with
heart or lung problems, anemia or those under the
influence of alcohol or at high altitudes.
FOR OUTDOOR USE. INDOOR USE PERMITTED
ONLY FOR: The temporary heating of adequately
ventilated buildings or structures under
construction, alteration or repair! Provide at least a
three square foot (2,800 sq cm) opening of outside
