WARNING: THIS HEATER IS NOT INTENDED FOR RESIDENTIAL
USE.
VENTILATION
Caution: Always provide a fresh air opening in the heated space of at least three square feet (2,800 sq. cm)
for each 100,000 BTU/Hr. of heater output. Provide a larger opening if more heaters are being used. As an
example, a MH-0018-0M11 heater will require:
•
a two-car garage door open 2 inches, or
•
a single car garage open 3 inches, or
•
two thirty two inch wide windows open 4 inches
CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
CAUTION: THE PROPANE (LP) GAS PRESSURE
REGULATOR AND HOSE ASSEMBLY SUPPLIED
WITH THE HEATER MUST BE USED WITHOUT
ALTERATION.
CAUTION: BE SURE TO INSPECT THE REGULATOR
HOSE BEFORE EACH USE. IF THE HOSE IS
CUT OR FRAYED, REPLACE IT WITH THE
MANUFACTURER SUGGESTED ASSEMBLY.
IMPORTANT! Always use a propane (LP) cylinder that has a
connection device that is compatible with the hose and regulator assembly supplied.
1. Remove the Back Cover by sliding the cover straight up and away from the Heater Body. Place the LP
cylinder on the Bottom Plate and replace the Back Cover.
2. To connect LP cylinder, insert regulator end fitting into cylinder valve, rotate coupling nut clockwise and
tighten firmly.
3. Open valve on propane cylinder slowly. If the valve is not opened slowly, the excess flow check valve in
the regulator will stop the flow of gas. If this should happen, close the valve, wait one minute (or until you
hear the valve click), and re-open, slowly.
4. Be sure to inspect all connections for leaks, by using a 50/50 mixture of dish soap and water on all
connections. Any bubbles forming indicate a leak.
