4)
NEVER use highly combustible materials to light the unit.
Highly combustible materials such as gasoline, refined spirits, etc. ignite at an
explosive rate which may cause serious injury or death. The safest method to
start the fire in the box is to use materials such
as and kindling wood. In the ab-
sence of these materials or when starting materials with a high moisture con-
tent, use diesel fuel oil as an acceptable option.
5)
NEVER climb on the unit or lean over to view or light the fire.
Always load and operate the machine from the MANIFOLD side. Hot embers
will escape at a low height opposite the manifold. The left side (opposite the
manifold) of the machine should be restricted access to prevent injury.
6)
Shut the unit down in an emergency.
Stop loading the unit, stop the air flow by shutting down the engine. Dump dirt
or sand onto the fire. Water should only
be used as a last resort as it will likely
damage the refractory panels.
