Waste oil may contain many foreign materials. Waste oil may also contain 
gasoline. Therefore, speciic precautions on the handling and storage of waste 
oils are to be observed when using, cleaning, and maintaining this heater. 

Use a 

screen in a funnel when pouring oil into storage tank to catch foreign material, 
i.e., gasket material and sealant ibers, etc. WARNING: This appliance is not 
designated for use in hazardous atmospheres containing lammable vapors 
or combustible dust, or atmospheres containing chlorinated or halogenated 
hydrocarbons. Do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. If installed in high 
moisture atmosphere, a special cover for the integrated air compressor 
must be obtained from factory to avoid rusting of internal raw metals. If this 
occurs, see trouble-shooting guide for remedy.

 OMNI burns the widest range of 

used and new oils including, but not limited to: used motor oils up to 90 weight, 
transmission and hydraulic luid, used synthetic oils, crude oil, vegetable, ish, and 
mineral oil,all diesel fuel and many more. Do not use old, contaminated oils that 
have been stored in underground tanks or outside barrels for long periods of time. 
Excessive water and sludge may be present, causing quick ilter plugging. 

NOTES:

 The instructions contained in this manual apply to the installation, 

operation, and service of OMNI Waste oil ired heaters. The following instructions 
should be carefully followed for obtaining the best possible installation, operation, 
and service conditions. Speciications are subject to change without notice. This 
heater was designed to be a primary or auxiliary heat source, but not the only 
source of heat. And provide economical disposal of waste oil. Proper operation 
depends on the consistency of the oil. Any water or foreign material in the oil may 
cause the unit to shut down. If a continuous stream of oil cannot be guaranteed 
at the heater, the main heating system should be set above freezing which will 
prevent any building damage if the waste oil heater were to become inoperative 
during subfreezing weather, i.e. supply tank empty, ilter plugged, etc. 

UNCRATING:

 Immediately upon uncrating units, check rating plate for certainty 

of electrical and mechanical characteristics. Also, check the unit for any damage 
that may have been incurred in shipment, if any damage is found, ile a claim 
with the transporting agency. The unit has been tested and inspected at the 
factory prior to crating and was in perfect condition at that time.  If anything is 
missing, check packing slip for indications of possible backorder of those parts or 
components. Otherwise, a claim must be iled for those missing parts.
