 Periodically monitor levels of CO, CO
existing at the consturction site – at the minimum at the
start of the shift and after 4 hours.
 Provide ventilation air exchange, either natural or mechani-
cal, as required to maintain acceptable indoor air quality.
 When the product is not in use disconnect the propane

and located away from combustible surfaces by no less
than 24 inches from rear and sides of heater and 72 inches
from above and front outlet of heater.
 Never fill the propane cylinder beyond 80 percent full. An
overfilled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard due to
possible gas release from the safety release valve. If not
followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may
occur.

WORK AREA

 Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
 Do not operate propane heaters in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Propane heaters create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

 A battery operated product with integral batteries or
a separate battery pack must be recharged only with
the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may
be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery.
 Use battery operated product only with specifically
designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may
create a risk of fire.
 Use this product only with batteries and chargers listed
in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation
supplement 987000-432.

locked or off position before inserting battery pack or
extension cord. Carrying the product with your finger on
the switch or inserting the battery pack or extension cord
into the product with the switch on invites accidents.
 Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. Proper footing and balance enable better control
of the product in unexpected situations.
 Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air
vents.
 Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable foot-
ing on a solid surface enables better control of the product
in unexpected situations.
PROPANE HEATER USE AND CARE
 Do not use the product if switch does not turn it on or
off. A product that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
 Disconnect battery pack or extension cord from the
product or place the switch in the locked or off position
before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the product. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a
fire.
 Keep the product and its handle dry, clean and free
from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when clean-
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
products, or any strong solvents to clean your product.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control
and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
 To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use this
product near water, especially when it is powered by
the power cord.
 Clean only with dry cloth.
 Do not operate near any other heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.

qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance per-
formed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of
injury.
 When servicing a propane heater, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Mainte-
nance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts
or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a
risk of shock or injury.
