Theory of Operation
Fuel System:
This heater is equipped with a high-pres-
sure pump. The pump draws fuel up from the fuel tank to
the nozzle in the burner head. It is sprayed into the
combustion chamber in a fine mist where it is mixed with
air for combustion.
Quick-Fire Ignition:
A transformer sends high voltage to a
two-pronged spark plug. The spark ignites the fuel/air
mixture as it is sprayed into the combustion chamber.
Air System:
A blower motor assembly forces air around
the combustion chamber, where it is super-heated and
forced out the front of the chamber. A cooling fan blows air
up and around the chamber during operation and also
runs during the cool-down period.
Electrical System Protection:
The heater’s electrical
system is protected by a circuit breaker that protects the
system components from damage. If the heater fails,
check the fuse first, and replace if necessary (see page
10).
Flame Sensor:
The heater uses a photocell to see the
flame in the combustion chamber. Should the flame
extinguish, the sensor will stop electrical current and the
heater will shut off.
Unpacking Heater
1. Attach handle by lining up holes of handle with the holes
in the upper shell of heater (See figure 4).
2. Insert screws and tighten.
3. Remove the heater and all of the packaging materials
from the shipping carton.
NOTE: Save the box and packaging materials for future
storage.
Fuel (1-K Kerosene)
When operating this heater, use 1-K kerosene only. 1-K
kerosene has been refined to virtually eliminate contami-
nants such as sulphur.
#1 or #2 fuel oil (diesel fuel)
cannot be used
, as that these fuels do not burn as clean
as 1-K kerosene.
Kerosene should only be stored in a blue container
that is clearly marked “kerosene”. Never store
kerosene in a red container, because red containers
are associated with gasoline.
Never
store kerosene in a living area. Kerosene should
always be stored in a well ventilated area outside of the
living space.
Never
store kerosene in direct sunlight or near any
heating source.
Never
use kerosene that has been stored from one
season to the next. Kerosene does break down over time.
Old kerosene will not burn properly in this heater.
Use of old or contaminated kerosene can lead to
excessive soot production.
Fueling the Heater
Never fill the fuel tank indoors. Always fill the tank
outdoors. Be sure that the heater is on level ground
when fueling, and never overfill the fuel tank.
It is always a good idea to fire the heater outdoors for the
first time. This will allow any oils used in the manufacturing
process to be burned off in a safe environment. This initial
burn should last at least 10 minutes.
Never use fuels such as gasoline,
benzine, alcohol, white gas, camp stove
fuel, paint thinners or other oil products to fuel this heater.
These are volatile fuels that could cause an explosion or
uncontrolled flame.
