Filter Kit Instructions
1. Position the filter sleeve onto the injector body.
Fasten the sleeve to the body by pushing the slots of
the sleeve onto the tabs of the body. Rotate the
sleeve so it locks into place on the injector body. See
Fig. 4.
2. Expand the elastic on the filter and slide the filter over
the sleeve. Make sure the elastic of the filter is
covering the top of the sleeve and that the seam of
the filter is perpendicular to the canopy edge of the
heater. See Fig. 4. Filter sleeve holes will not be
exposed when the filter is properly installed.
3. After installation, make sure that the filter does not
sag or touch the canopy of the heater.
4. The operating position of the heater must allow for a
tilt of the canopy of between 1° (min.) and 5° (max.)
from the filter end of the heater. The tilt angle is
necessary to allow proper venting of combustion by-
products from the heater as well as minimize
convective and radiant heat to the filter element.
INSTALLING FILTER
CLEANING THE FILTER
1. During EEach FFlock — Remove the filter and shake out
the dust. Reinstall the filter according to previous
instructions.
2. After EEach FFlock — If necessary, remove the filter and
use compressed air and/or water to clean the filter.
Make sure to squeeze out any excess water from the
filter before reinstalling the filter back onto the filter
sleeve. DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER TO CLEAN
THE FILTER. DO NOT WASH IN A WASHING MACHINE.
High pressure, either water or air, can tear the filter
material. Use standard faucet pressure only. Clean the
venturi tube and cones if necessary using pressurized
air and/or water. Refer to the cleaning instruction
guidelines in this Owner's Manual. Let the heater and
filter dry completely before lighting.
CAUTION
■
Never allow the filter to become fully clogged with dust
and dirt.
■
A dust choked filter will restrict the combustion air,
causing improper combustion.
■
Signs of improper combustion include: backflashing
of flame into the venturi tube, yellowing of the flame
within the burner cone, presence of blue and/or
yellow flames outside of the outer cone or carbon
sooting on the underside of the canopy.
■
At first signs of any of these conditions, clean the
filter.
ATTENTION
■
Do not squeeze or tap the filter while the heater is in
operation.
■
Doing so will allow dust to be ingested within the
venturl tube and cones.
■
Shut the heater off and remove filter in its entirety
and shake out dust
