Maintenance
NEVER OpERATE THIS HEATER UNATTENDED!
Use
only original equipment replacement parts. The use of
alternate or third party components can cause unsafe
operating conditions, and will void your warranty. We
suggest following a maintenance schedule as follows:
Filters
- The Fuel Filter
and
Oil Filter should be cleaned at
least twice per heating season.
Fan Blades -
The fan blades should be cleaned at least
once per heating
season, depending on conditions.
Spark plug
- Clean and re-gap every 600 hours of
operation, or replace as needed.
photocell
- The Photocell should be cleaned at least once
per heating season or more depending on conditions.
Fuel/Fuel Tank
- Flush every 200 hours of operation or as
needed.
Long Term Storage
-
Unscrew the Fuel Cap, and using an approved fuel
siphon, remove paraffin or diesel.
-
Using a small amount of paraffin or diesel, rinse and
swirl the fuel inside of the Fuel Tank. Empty the tank
fully.
-
NEVER MIX WATER WITH FUEL, as it will cause rust
inside the tank.
Never store leftover paraffin or diesel over the
summer. Using old fuel can damage your heater.
Store heater in a dry, well-ventilated area
