Troubleshooting

The most common cause for the heater not working correctly is an inadequate or non-existent gas supply. Therefore, if the

heater will not light you should check the following:

• There is gas in the cylinder.

• The gas valve on the cylinder is fully open.

• The quick connectors are firmly fastened together.

• You are following the ignition instructions provided on the heater label or in this manual.

• The emitter is fastened securely to the burner head.

• The emitter is clean.

• The gas jet in the burner head is clean (dirt, bugs, cob webs etc. may partially plug opening).

• Mix a solution of dish soap and water. Turn on the gas supply and apply soapy liquid with a small brush to the joints that

could be leaking gas. Bubbles will form if a leak is present.

• Even if the soap test does not detect a leak, be sure teflon tape has been applied to the gas valve.

The heater is equipped with a tip switch. Bumping the heater accidentally can activate this safety feature. The heater must

sit on a level surface for the same reason.

If you have followed these instructions and your heater is still not working properly, contact your Zubri dealer or local gas

supplier immediately. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR ANY OF THE GAS SUPPLY PARTS YOURSELF.

Cleaning

• Do not attempt to clean the heater while it is warm. Be sure the gas supply is turned off. General cleaning can be done

with a damp soapy cloth followed by polishing with a soft cloth. Do no use abrasive cleansers.

• Remove the reflector by loosening and flipping the folding wing nut up. Clean the reflector with a damp soapy cloth

followed by polishing with a soft cloth. Be careful when handling the reflector as it can bend or dent easily.

• Remove the emitter by loosening and removing the U bracket assembly. Use a wire brush on the inside and outside of

the emitter to remove deposits.
