OPERATION

Before performing a leak test, be sure that no
sparks can occur, and you are in a spacious
outdoor area. Connect the propane gas tank
to the regulator and turn the valve on the unit
to the 'OFF' position. Brush a soap and water
mixture on all connections. Turn the gas supply
on; if bubbles appear on any connection there
may be a leak. If you smell gas or a leak is
discovered, turn the gas valve off, disconnect
the propane gas tank and do not use the
appliance until the leak is repaired.
Do not use the heating unit without inspecting
the gas hose. If there are signs of wear
or abrasion you must replace the hose (if
applicable).
