Please note the following very important safety precautions:
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures of the
main burner and reflector and should stay away from these areas.
Children should be carefully supervised when near the heater. This heater is not a toy and
children should not be allowed to push, climb on, or swing on the heater. This could cause
serious injury, property damage, or death.
Clothing or other flammable materials should not be hung from the heater or placed near
the heater while in operation.
Installation and repair of the heater should only be carried out by a qualified service
person.
Any part or component removed for cleaning or maintenance must be properly re-installed
before using the heater.
The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
the installation must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code, also known as NFPA 54 and ANSI
Z223.1 latest edition.
There must be adequate clearance around all air openings into the combustion chamber,
clearances from combustible materials, and accessibility and for combustion and ventilating air
supply. Clearances from the side and top must be at least 24” combustible materials.
Always place heater on a hard and level surface.
The inlet gas supply pressure must not exceed 11" W.C. Use only hose, regulator, and tank
adapter that is supplied with the product. Replacements must be those specified by the
manufacturer.
Test all fittings and connections with a soapy solution prior to use. Never use an open flame or
open flame device.
Keep water sources such as sprinklers away from the burner and controls.
Certain items or materials when stored under the heater or too close to the heater head will be
subject to radiant heat and these items could be damaged.
Review carefully and follow all assembly instructions. If you do not understand any of these
instructions please call your selling dealer or call SunStar directly at local 704 372 3486.
Carefully inspect the rubber hose included with the unit before each use. Be sure there are no
visible cracks, damage, abrasion, or other signs of visible wear. If there is any evidence of wear it
should be replaced with a Sunstar replace hose assembly.
In the event your unit uses an approved 12 foot hose please be sure that it is placed in a manner
when it cannot be damaged or positioned in a way that someone might trip over it.
Always follow the lighting and shutdown instructions to insure safe use.
The heater should be visually inspected before each use and at least annually by a qualified
service person. Certain weather conditions such as being near the ocean, dusty areas, areas with
high humidity, areas with high wind conditions, and heavy use, may require more frequent
cleaning or maintenance. When in doubt call a qualified service person. It is imperative that the
control compartment, burner system, and circulating air passages of the heater be kept clean.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR THE USE OF
LIQUID PROPANE (LP) GAS.
Caution: Liquid Propane (LP) gas is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Become
aware of the characteristics before using any LP product.
Propane or liquefied petroleum gas is highly flammable, explosive under pressure, clean burning,
heavier than air, and settles in puddles in low areas.
In its natural form propane gas is odorless. For your safety and for ease of detection an odorant
has been added to the propane that smells like rotten cabbage. If you ever believe that you have
a propane gas leak in any appliance shut off the appliance immediately and find and correct the
leak.
Direct contact with propane gas can cause freeze burns to the skin.
Your heater is shipped from the factory to be used with propane fuel only. Do not attempt to alter
your heater in any way.
Use only a "DOT" (Department of Transportation) approved 20-pound cylinder (when it's empty)
with an "ACME"TYPE 1" connection with "QCC" (Quick Connect Coupler). Use only cylinders
equipped with an approved OPD "Overfill Protection Device." This device prevents accidental
over-filling and possible escape of fuel when the cylinder is heated. These OPD equipped
cylinders can be easily identified by their triangular handle at the top of the tank and inside and
outside threads where the regulator attaches to the cylinder valve. Do NOT attempt to alter or
modify any parts of this safety system!
Never attempt to use a cylinder that has a rusted or damaged main body, a damaged collar or
valve, or a damaged foot ring. Take your cylinder to an authorized propane retailer if you have
any questions about the safety or suitability of your cylinder.
When the heater is not in use turn the LP tank OFF.
New tanks with OPD valves also contain a device that senses leaks in your heaters fuel system.
If you find that the pilot light lights and ignites the burner only to find that it shuts down within a
minute or two this indicates that the safety system has detected a leak in either the hose or at the
various connections of the heater head. Check all fittings with a soapy solution and then attempt
to re-light.
On all new OPD cylinders the regulator assembly and hand wheel must be completely and
correctly engaged and tightened into the cylinder valve or it will not allow the gas to flow to the
heater. Be sure this connection is tight but do not over-tighten. You do not need to use any tools
to make this connection. You should always double-check this connection at the cylinder with a
soap and water solution.
Never store a propane cylinder indoors. If you are not using the heater disconnect the cylinder
from the heater and store it outdoors in an area where it is not accessible to children.
WARNING: Chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm are created by the combustion of propane and other fossil fuels.
