WARNING: Heater shell, top,
and heated air from heater is very
hot during operation. Gradually
move in closer to heater to ob-
serve flame color. Do not touch
heater shell or top. Do not get too
close to heated air from heater.
Severe burns could occur.
To check for correct burner flame, look through the
ventilation holes in the top of the heater to see the
burner flame. The burner flame should be mostly
blue with slight yellow coloring on the ends. If
the burner flame is mostly yellow, the primary air
openings on the burner tube under the heater base
may be blocked (see Figure 4).
1. Stop heater (see To Stop Heater) and let cool.
2. Turn heater over to locate the primary air
openings on the burner tube (see Figure 4).
