Troubleshooting Guide
Below we have provided a common problems and solutions table. Be sure to consult this table should you
experience any technical problems.
Description of Problem
Possible Causes
Known Solutions
The burner will not ignite or
the burner will not stay lit
1) The electric ignition may have
dead or low power batteries
2) Starter button not being held
long enough for ignition to take
place
3) The fuel level could be too low
4) The propane cylinder valve
could be partially or fully closed,
which can restrict fuel flow
5) The pressure regulator valve
may be in the off position or may
not be providing sufficient fuel flow
1) Change the batteries located in
the ignitor assembly, double check
spark.
2) Ensure you hold your starter
button until the burner ignites,
continue to hold for an additional
15-20 seconds
3) Check and refill your fuel tank
4) Ensure your fuel valve is fully
open, you can do this by turning
the knob fully counter-clockwise
5) You may increase the pressure
from the regulator by turning the
knob clockwise
Crack filler is hot, but will not
come out of the flow valve
1) Crack filler was left inside the
melter from a previous job. This
crack filler has solidified inside the
flow valve and although the
material in the kettle is melted, the
material in the transfer tube and
flow valve may not be.
2) There is a material blockage in
the transfer tube or flow valve
preventing crack filler from flowing
which can be caused by dirt or
debris inside the kettle or by old
crack sealant which has lost its
ability to melt from being reheated
too many times
1) Allow the burner more time to
heat up the flow valve until the
crack filler inside begins to melt.
Alternatively, you may heat up the
valve using a propane torch
assembly.
2) This is routine maintenance as
described in the maintenance
guide. Make sure your melter is
cool enough to touch with gloves,
carefully remove the valve control
arm. Rotate the control valve
forward (clockwise) about a ¼ turn
and pull out of the transfer tube
(this may require some force if the
material is cold). Using a drill and
a long 1” wire wheel, carefully
clean all build up on the inside of
the flow valve and transfer tube
while being careful not to damage
the original steel surface. Once
clean you may put re-assemble
the control valve and control arm.
Burner will not stay lit
1) The fuel level may be too low
2) Loose connection between the
thermocouple and flame-out valve
1) Refill your fuel tank
2) Tighten the thermocouple
connection to the flame-out valve
Crack filler is melting really slowly
1) Incorrect crack sealant being
used
2) Burner is not providing enough
heat to melt the crack sealant
3) The temperature outside is
cooler than normal slowing down
the melting process
1) Double check that your using
an approved crack sealant for use
in direct-fire melters
2) Increase the fuel to your burner
3) No solutions, melting takes
longer on cooler days
