2. Check the tank valve feature to ensure it has
proper external mating threads to fit the Hose
and Regulator Assembly provided. (Type 1
connection per ANSI Z21.58a-1998)
3. Make sure the Burner Valve is in the OFF
position.
4. Inspect the valve connection port and Regula­
tor Assembly. Remove any debris and inspect
hose for damage. Never attempt to use
damaged or plugged equipment.
5. When connecting the Hose and Regulator
Assembly to the tank valve, hand tighten nut
clockwise to a full stop. Do Not use a
wrench to tighten because it could damage
the Quick Coupling Nut and result in a
hazardous condition.

place the Contact on top of the Spring.
Screw the Ignitor Cap back onto the Heater
Head Assembly. See Fig. 6.
Connecting A Liquid Propane Gas (LP gas)
Tank To Your Patio Heater
1. Raise LP Tank Cover and unhook the safety
chain. Place your filled gas tank on the
Weighted Base. Hang the Safety Chain on
the Hooks of both Legs using the chain links
which hold your tank most securely. See Fig.
7. Make sure the LP gas tank valve is in the
full OFF position. (Turn clockwise to close.)
NOTE: When connecting the LP gas tank,
position the tank so its Hose and Regulator does
not interfere or rub against the Tank Cover which
will be raised and lowered often, possibly causing
damage to the hose.

CONNECTION DEVICE
CAUTION: When the patio heater is not in use,
the gas must be turned off at the supply tank.
6. Open the tank valve fully (counterclockwise).
Use a soapy water solution to check all
connections for leaks before attempting to
use your patio heater. If bubbles appear in the
soap solution the connections are not properly
sealed. Check each fitting and tighten or repair
as necessary.
If you have a gas leak that cannot be repaired
by tightening, turn off the gas at the source,
disconnect fuel line from your patio heater and
call 1-800-4-MY-HOME® or your gas supplier for
repair assistance.
Disconnecting A Liquid Propane Gas (LP gas)
Tank From Your Patio Heater
1. Turn the Burner Valve and LP gas tank valve
to the full OFF position. (Turn clockwise to
close.)
2. Detach the Hose and Regulator Assembly
from the LP gas tank valve by turning the
Quick Coupling Nut counterclockwise.
Congratulations

ning of each season (and whenever the LP

1. Read all safety, lighting and operating
instructions.
2. Check Gas Valve Orifices, Burner Tubes
and Burner Ports for any obstructions.
3. Perform Gas Leak Check according to
instructions found on page 13 of this
