SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS AND GUIDELINES
TIPS FOR MAINTAINING HIGH PERFORMANCE
DO NOT ALLOW ANY UNAPPROVED MATERIAL INTO THE OIL STORAGE TANK.
Explana on:
Material placed in the oil storage tank will eventually be delivered to the burner. An freeze and
water will not ignite and will cause the hea ng equipment to shut down.
DO NOT USE EXHAUST FANS THAT CREATE A VACUUM IN THE BUILDING.
Explana on:
A backdra at the hea ng equipment will damage cri cal burner components. If your shop
requires exhaust fans there must be adequate make up air so that the furnace can maintain a
proper natural dra . If there is insuffi
cient make up air, install make up air louvers or use a relay
to open the wall thermostat circuit to ensure the burner does not fi re when an exhaust fan is in
use.
TURN OFF POWER TO THE BURNER IF A CALL FOR HEAT IS NOT EXPECTED FOR
MORE THAN A WEEK.
Explana on:
If the green power light is “on” at the burner, the oil temperature is being maintained by the
200W heater element. If this oil temperature is maintained over a long period of me (like over
the summer months) without a call for heat, the nozzle adapter heater block is more likely to
accumulate carbon build up which may cause a plugged nozzle. Flip the breaker “off ” at the panel
or turn the Burner Power Switch “off ” located on the junc on box on top of the unit.
