2.6 Precautions

CAUTIONS:
• The Aqua-Hot's Exhaust is HOT!
• DO NOT
 park in areas where dry conditions exist underneath the

vehicle, as a fire may result (i.e. dry grassy fields) .

• DO NOT operate the Aqua-Hot’s Diesel-Fired Burner inside an

enclosed building.

• Operating the Aqua-Hot Diesel-Burner or the 120 VAC Electric

Heating Element without the water and antifreeze solution will cause
serious damage to the Heater.

 The Heater should be switched OFF when refueling.

Important
Information

SECTION 2:  OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 Maintenance Schedule
Monthly

Check the Aqua-Hot's solution of water and antifreeze to ensure that it
is at the proper level.  Do this by visually checking the coolant level in
the Aqua-Hot's Expansion Tank, see Figure 1.  This should be checked
only when the Aqua-Hot is at operating temperature, “HOT.”

Annually

CAUTION:  Before cleaning or servicing, disconnect all power supplies.

It is ideal to have your Aqua-Hot tuned-up yearly.  A tune-up should
consist of a Fuel Nozzle and Fuel Filter replacement and a thorough
cleaning of the Combustion Chamber, if necessary.  This simple tune-up
will keep your Aqua-Hot running smoothly throughout the year. This
annual tune-up will also allow service personnel to inspect for wear and
tear of other components.

CAUTION:  Operating the Aqua-Hot’s Diesel-Burner or the 120 VAC
Electric Heating Element without the water and antifreeze solution will
cause serious damage to the Heater.
