Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard of high surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised when they are near the appliance. Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near the appliance. Do not operate heater in any moving vehicle. This heater is for outdoor use only. GAS PRESSURE AT HEATER IS REGULATED AND FIXED AT 11” W.C. WHEN USING A REMOTE HOSE CONNECTION DO NOT REGULATE OR REDUCE PROPANE TANK SUPPLY PRESSURE TO HEATER! REGULATOR IN HEATER MUST ALWAYS BE IN PLACE DURING OPERATION. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing the appliance must be replaced prior to operating the heater. The appliance should be inspected before each use. Frequent cleaning may be required. The control compartments, burner and circulating air passageways of the appliance must be kept clean, see MAINTENANCE. DO NOT use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control, which has been under water. When used without adequate combustion and ventilation air, this heater may give off excessive CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless, poisonous gas. Some people - pregnant women, persons with heart or lung disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, those at high altitudes - are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. When heater is placed on the ground, make sure the ground is level and keep any objects at least 24 inches from the front of the heater. THIS HEATER IS EQUIPPED WITH A TIP OVER SWITCH THAT WILL SHUT THE HEATER OFF IF THE HEATER TIPS OVER HOWEVER, DO NOT LEAVE HEATER UNATTENDED OR WHERE CHILDREN MAY CAUSE THE HEATER TO TIP OVER. NEVER OPERATE THE HEATER WHILE SLEEPING! Mr. Heater | Portable Buddy GENERAL INFORMATION: • When the heater is cold, it will take a few minutes for • • • • • 3 the burner tile to turn bright orange. This is normal and the heater is working properly. If burner tile is visibly flaming, turn heater off and call a qualified service technician.

When operating the heater for the first time, the top area of the reflector may discolor. This is also normal and is no reason for concern. Designed to operate at altitudes up yo 7, 000 feet. When operating the heater at altitudes over 7,000 FT. above sea level, the unit may not burn as bright as in lower altitudes. This is normal. At higher altitudes, the heater may shut-off. If this happens, provide fresh air, wait 5 minutes and re-light. Operating time will vary depending on the heater setting and the supply cylinder size. 3 to 6 hours on a 1 lb. cylinder. 48 to 110 hours on a 20 lb. cylinder (based on “HI” and “LO” settings). When moving heater when lit or bumping heater setting it down, tip over switch may shut off heater. If this happens, re-light.

The propane cylinder must include a listed overfilling protection device as well as a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Heater must be in an upright position during operation. Make sure four-position Control Knob is in “OFF” position; see Figure 1, at left. Screw hose connector into regulator on heater and screw connector on other end of hose into LP-gas supply cylinder valve. Tighten all hose connections. Check all hose connections for leaks with soapy water at the threaded connection under the domed plastic cover where the hose connector screws into the regulator and at LP-gas supply cylinder. SEE WARNING! ON PLASTIC COVER. Open valve at LP-gas supply cylinder. Depress and turn Control Knob counterclockwise to “PILOT” position and hold for 1 - 2 minutes. This may take longer to purge air from the supply hose depending on the length of the hose being used. Depress red spark ignition button to light pilot flame (repeat until pilot lights) and continue to hold Control Knob down and at “PILOT” position for 30-60 seconds to enable Pilot Light Safety System. Operating Instructions and Owner’s Manual blue color around the border, a red-orange haze that is visible on the ceramic tile is acceptable) and without a noticeable flame. A blue flame that rolls out at the top of the ceramic tile indicates an accumulation of dust, lint or spider webs inside the casing assembly and main burner assembly. If the pilot is yellow or the burner has a noticeable flame, cleaning may be required. Use the following procedure to inspect the casing assembly and main burner assembly. • Fully turn Control Knob to “HI” position to light burner • • • • • • tile. Leave on “HI” position until burner tile turns bright orange. After burner tile has turned bright orange, adjust heat output by turning Control Knob to desired position (“LO” or “HI” setting) DO NOT OPERATE HEATER UNLESS CONTROL KNOB IS SECURED IN A POSITION MARKED “HI”, “LO” or “PILOT”.

CAUTION: After turning heater off, wire guard will remain hot. Allow to thoroughly cool before storing. When not in use, the gas must be turned off at the LPgas supply cylinder. When the LP-gas supply cylinder is not disconnected from the heater, the heater and the cylinder must be stored outdoors, in a well ventilated space, out of reach of children, and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area. Indoor storage of the heater is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the heater. Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area. It is necessary to periodically check the burner orifice and burner venturi tube to make sure they are clear of insects/nests or spider webs that may accumulate over time. A clogged tube can lead to a fire. 1 Allow heater to thoroughly cool before performing any maintenance. 2 Remove disposable 1 lb. cylinder from heater or turn OFF gas supply at remote cylinder valve, and disconnect hose from heater. 3 Remove wire guard from front of heater by gently bending to remove from holes in front cover. 4 Remove (1) burner assembly retaining screw from bottom of the heater. 5 Pull burner assembly from front of the heater. 6 Inspect interior of casing assembly for accumulation of dust, lint or spider webs. If necessary, clean interior of casing assembly with a vacuum cleaner or apply air pressure. Do not damage any components within casing assembly when you are cleaning. 7 Inspect and clean main burner orifice (mounted to pilot bracket with jam nut) by using a vacuum or apply air pressure at orifice opening. MAINTENANCE: Always keep the heater area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. 8 Inspect and clean pilot (mounted to bracket) by using a vacuum or apply air pressure through the holes in the pilot indicated by the arrows in Figure 2, at left. WARNING: Never use needles, wires, or similar cylindrical objects to clean the pilot to avoid damaging the calibrated ruby that controls the gas flow. Keep the vent areas (slots in the bottom and the top at the front of heater) clear at all times. Visually inspect the pilot flame and burner periodically during use. The pilot flame should be blue in color (not yellow) and will extend beyond the thermocouple. The flame will surround the thermocouple just below the tip, see Figure 2, below. A slight yellow flame may occur where the pilot flame and main burner flame meet. The burner should be bright orange (with a slight 9 Apply air pressure into ceramic tile of burner assembly and the venturi tube (with cone on end) to remove dust, lint or spider webs. 10 Make sure the burner tile assembly is completely seated against the reflector. 11 Carefully slide burner assembly back into casing assembly making sure to center reflector flange with the casing opening and hold in place while installing burner assembly screw in the bottom of the heater. 12 Install wire guard by gently bending and inserting into the (4) holes in the front cover.
