Rupture Disk:
If pressure from pump or thermal expansion should
exceed safe limits, the rupture disk will burst allow-
ing high pressure to be discharged through hose to
ground. When disk ruptures it will need to be replaced.
The replacement rupture disk should be torqued to
35 ft./lbs.
fuel:
Use clean fuel oil that is not contaminated with water
and debris. Replace fuel filter and drain tank every
100 hours of operation.
Use No. 1 or No. 2 Heating Oil (ASTM D306) only.
NEvER
use gasoline in your burner tank. Gasoline is
more combustible than fuel oil and a serious explo-
sion could result.
NEvER
use crankcase or waste oil
in your burner. Fuel unit malfunction could result from
contamination.
fuel Control System:
These machines utilize a fuel solenoid valve located
on the fuel pump to control the flow of fuel to the
combustion chamber. This solenoid valve, which is
normally closed, is activated by a flow switch when
water is flowing through it. When an operator releases
the Trigger on the spray gun, the flow of water through
the flow switch stops, turning off the current to the fuel
solenoid. The solenoid then closes, shutting off the
supply of fuel to the combustion chamber. Controlling
the flow of fuel in this way allows for an instantaneous
burn or no burn situation, thereby eliminating high
and low water temperatures, and combustion smoke
normally associated with machines incorporating a
spray gun.
CAUTION:
Periodic inspection is recommended to
insure that the fuel solenoid valve functions properly.
This can be done by operating the machine and check-
ing to see that when the trigger on the spray gun is in
the off position, the burner is not firing.
Electrode Setting:
(See illustration below.)
burner Nozzle:
Keep the tip free of surface deposits by wiping it with
a clean, solvent-saturated cloth, being careful not to
plug or enlarge the nozzle. For maximum efficiency,
replace the nozzle each season.
Air Adjustment:
Machines are preset and performance tested at the
factory - elevation 100 feet. A one-time initial correction
for your location will pay off in economy, performance
and extended service life. If a smoking or eye-burning
exhaust is being emitted from the stack, two things
should be checked. First, check the fuel to be certain
that kerosene or No. 1 home heating fuel is being used.
Next, check the air adjustment on the burner.
To adjust:
Start machine and turn burner ON. Loosen
two locking screws found in the air shutter openings
(refer to illustration below) and close air shutter until
black smoke appears from burner exhaust vent. Note
air band position. Next, slowly open the air shutter
until white smoke just starts to appear. Turn air shutter
halfway back to the black smoke position previously
noted. Tighten locking screws.
If the desired position cannot be obtained using only
the air shutter, lock the air shutter in as close a position
as can be obtained, then repeat the above procedure
on the air band setting.
Periodically check wiring connections. If necessary to
adjust electrodes, use diagram.
