Assembly
INSTALLING THE WHEELS & FOOT (
Most units will be completely assembled. However if for
any reason you do need to assemble these components
follow the these instructions. Using the cardboard that
your heater was shipped in turn your heater on to one
of it sides or its top so that the bottom of the heater is
accessible. First, take the axel and insert it into one of the
wheels supplied. Then on the outside of the wheel place
the large washer over the axle. You can then insert one
of the cotter pins into the hole in the end of the axle and
bend over one or both of the tails of the pin so that it
cannot be removed. Then on the inside of that wheel run
one of the spacers over the other end of the axel so that
it is pressed against the back of the wheel. Then slide the
axle into the holes along the bottom edge of the heater.
Then install the other spacer followed by the other wheel
and washer. You can then insert and bend the other
cotter pin. Finally you can press the rubber hub caps over
the end of the axle. It is designed to press over the washer
to hold the cap in place once you are sure you have the
wheels and axle installed on your heater in the order
shown in figure 1.

INSTALLING THE HANDLE
Most units will be completely assembled. However if for
any reason you do need to assemble these components
follow the these instructions. First locate the metal "U"
shaped handle that was packed with your heater. (Does
not apply to model # HS115TC, If this is your model
move to hose and regulator setup). Next locate the two
handle bolts included in your hardware package. Then,
while looking at the outlet side of the heater open the
access panel opposite the control panel side by removing
the screws that hold it in place around its perimeter. Just

above the top edge of the door opening you
two holes close to the top edge of the heater. Align the threaded
holes in the handle up to the holes in the cover of the heater.
Then thread the two supplied bolts through the case into the
handle from inside of the case. Using a socket wrench tighten
down the bolts. Be sure not to over tighten.
Hose and Regulator setup
Whenever joining a male threaded pipe to female threaded
pipe, apply a pipe dope compound or PTFE tape to male
threads prior to assembly. Leave the first two threads bare.
SETUP FOR PROPANE
First locate the hose and regulator assembly included with
your heater. Inspect the hose for cracks, breaks and any
signs of damage. If any damage is found, contact the factory
for a replacement. The regulator end is equipped with a
standard POL connection designed to fit most vertical vapor
draw propane tanks. Note: This is a reverse "left hand"
thread. Next attach the P.O.L. to an appropriately sized tank
for your application. This is a flared fitting and this type of
connection does not require any additional sealant or thread
tape. Check all connections with a mixture of soap and
water for leaks. Mix water and a small amount of dish soap
in a spray
bottle and apply the solution on all connections, looking
for small bubbles to appear. If you see bubbles that is an indication
of a leak. Tighten your connection until the bubble are eliminated.
For proper tank sizing, refer to the sizing chart in the trouble
shooting section of this manual. (page 10)
SETUP FOR NATURAL GAS.
You must first determine if a regulator will be
required. When using NG a regulator will only be
required when the source of the gas has an output
pressure greater than 14" w.c. (3.48 Kpa).
First locate the hose and regulator assembly included with
your heater. Inspect the hose for any cracks breaks or signs
of damage. If any damage is found, contact the factory
for a replacement. The regulator end is equipped with a
standard POL connection designed to fit most vertical vapor
draw propane tanks. If you are using your unit with Natural
Gas and you have determined the regulator will be needed,
first the "P.O.L. fitting will have
to be removed and replaced with
a connector/connectors that
will allow for connection to your
Natural Gas supply. To remove the
P.O.L. fitting, secure the regulator
body in a vice being careful not
to damage it. Then using a socket wrench remove he P.O.L.
stem and nut from the regulator. Then replace the POL with
the appropriate pieces to make your connection. Be sure to
use an appropriate sealant or thread tape when required.
Check all connections with a mixture of soap and water
for leaks. Mix water and a small amount of dish soap in
a spray bottle and apply the solution on all connections,
looking for small bubbles to appear. If you see bubbles that
is an indication of a leak. Tighten your connection until the
bubble are eliminated.
