OPERATION
! DANGER
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Purchaser of equipment must post in a prominent location, detailed instructions to be followed in the
event the operator smells gas. Obtain the instructions from the local gas supplier.
! CAUTION
To eliminate gas build up which could result in an explosion, in the event of main burner ignition
failure a five minute purge period must be observed prior to re-establishing ignition source.
! CAUTION
Top section pilots, when out, do not interrupt the flow of gas to the burners. Consequently, it is the
responsibility of the operator to check the ignition of the burners, immediately after burner value has
been turned “ON.” Should ignition fail after 10 seconds, turn off burners, wait 5 minutes, and then try
again.
