Assembly
1. Attach handle by lining up holes of handle with the holes
in the upper shell of heater (See fig. 1).
2. Insert screws and tighten.
Ventilation
ALWAYS provide a fresh air opening in the heated space
of at least 2,800 sq.cm for each 29 Kw/Hr. of heater
output. Provide a larger opening if more heaters are being
used.
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.
NOTE: On first ignition or after refueling, you may hear
a grinding sound just before ignition. This is the fuel
pump removing air from the fuel line. Your heater will
start up within seconds. If it does not start, repeat
Step #4 with fuel gauge reading at least 1/2 tank.
