Step 1 - Gas Cylinder Required
You must provide propane gas and propane cylinder.
■
Use a standard 20lb propane cylinder only.
Use this heater only with a propane vapor withdrawal
■
supply system. See chapter 5 of the Standard for Storage
and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gas, ANSI/ NFPA 58.
Your local library or fire department will have this book.
Maximum supply pressure of 250 psi. A minimum supply
■
pressure of 25 psi is required for the purpose of input
adjustment for propane gas.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with
■
the appliance must be used. Replacement pressure regu-
lators and hose assemblies must be those specified by the
appliance manufacturer.
A dented, rusted or damaged propane cylinder may be
■
hazardous and should be checked by your cylinder sup-
plier. Never use a propane cylinder with a damaged valve
connection.
The propane cylinder must be constructed and marked in
■
accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of
the U.S. Department of Transportation(DOT) or the
Standard for Cylinder, Spheres & Tubes for transportation
of Dangerous Goods & Commission, CAN/CSA-B339, as
applicable.
Never connect an unregulated propane cylinder to the
■
heater.
The cylinder must include a collar to protect the
■
cylinder valve.
Provided with a listed overfilling prevention device.
■
Provided with a cylinder connection device compatible with
■
the connection for the appliance.
Do not store a spare LP-Gas cylinder under or near this
■
appliance.
A cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated
■
area out of reach of children. A disconnected cylinder
must have dust caps tightly installed and must not be
stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.
■
Place the dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet whenever
■
the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap
on the cylinder valve that is provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage
of propane.
