SAFETY

INFORMATION WARNINGS

IMPORTANT: Read this Owner’s Manual carefully and completely

beforetryingtoassemble,operate,orservicethisheater.Improperuse

of this heater can cause serious injury or death from burns, ﬁre,

explosion, electrical shock, and carbon monoxide poisoning.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning

resemble the ﬂu, with headaches, dizziness, and/or nausea. If you have these signs,

the heater may not be working properly. Get fresh air at once! Have heater

serviced. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. These

includepregnant women, persons withheart or lung diseaseor anemia, those under

the influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.

MakecertainyoureadandunderstandallWarnings.Keepthismanualforreference.

It is your guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.

•Use only kerosene or No. 1 fuel oil to avoid risk of ﬁre or explosion. Never

use gasoline, naphtha, paint thinners, alcohol, or other highly ﬂammable

fuels.

•Never use heater where gasoline, paint thinner, or other highly ﬂammable

vapors are present.

•Follow all local ordinances and codes when using heater.

•Never use heater without properly installed vent piping and regulator.

•This heater must have fresh air for proper operation. If not, poor fuel

combustion and improper venting of flue gases will result. Carbon monox-

ide poisoning from backed-up flue gases could occur.

•Use only in places free of ﬂammable vapors or high dust content.

•Use only with the electrical voltage and frequency speciﬁed on model plate.

•Use only a three-prong, grounded (earthed) extension cord.

•Minimum heater clearances from combustibles:

Outlet: 8 Ft. (250 cm) Sides, Top, and Rear: 4 Ft. (188 cm)

•Locate heater on a stable and level surface while hot or running or a ﬁre

may occur.

•When moving or storing heater, keep heater in a level position or fuel

spillage may occur.

•Keep children and animals away from heater.

•Unplug heater when not in use.

•When used with thermostat, heater may start anytime.

•Never use heater in living or sleeping areas.

•Never block air inlet (rear) or air outlet (front) of heater.

•Never move, handle, refuel, or service a hot, operating, or plugged-in

heater.

•Never attach duct work to front or rear of heater.

DANGER

Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to death!

This heater is designed to provide heated air. The heated air is free of harmful

exhaust gases. Vent exhaust gases to the outdoors through a ﬂue pipe, smoke-

stack, or chimney. When using the heater, provide enough air for combustion and

ventilation. Provide proper power supply for the heater.

This manual contains operating, maintenance, and troubleshooting instructions. A

complete parts list is also included.

1. Remove all packing items applied to heater for shipment.

2. Remove all items from carton.

3. Check items for shipping damage. If heater is damaged, promptly inform

dealer where you bought heater.

ASSEMBLY This heater is furnished with wheels, handles, and an interrupter. These items and

the mounting hardware are found in the shipping carton.

Tools Needed

•Medium Phillips Screwdriver

•3/8" Open or Adjustable Wrench

•Hammer

1. Slide axle through wheel support frame. Install wheels on axle.

IMPORTANT:

When installing wheels, point extended hub of wheels toward

wheel support frame (see Figure 2).

2. Place cap nuts on axle ends. Gently tap with hammer to secure.

3. Place heater on wheel support frame. Make sure air inlet end (rear) of heater is

over wheels. Line up holes on fuel tank ﬂange with holes on wheel support

frame.

4. Place front handle and rear handle on top of fuel tank ﬂange. Insert screws

through handles, fuel tank ﬂange, and wheel support frame. Attach nut ﬁnger

tight after each screw is inserted.

5. After all screws are inserted, tighten nuts ﬁrmly.

6. Place interrupter onto combustion chamber. Secure with two screws. Save two

additional screws for mounting vent pipe.

Gases Air For Fuel

System Air For Combustion

And Heating Fuel

The Fuel System: The air pump forces air through the air line. The air is then

pushed through the burner head nozzle. This air causes fuel to lift from the tank.

A ﬁne mist of fuel is sprayed into the combustion chamber.

The Air System: The motor turns the fan. The fan pushes air into and around

the combustion chamber. This air is heated and provides a stream of clean, hot air.

Exhaust gases are ducted out of the heater through a vent pipe. The user must

supply the vent pipe.

The Ignition System: The electronic ignitor sends voltage to the spark plug.

The spark plug ignites the fuel and air mixture.

The Flame-Out Control System: This system causes the heater to shut down

if the ﬂame goes out.

Do not use heavy fuels such as No. 2 fuel oil or No. 2 Diesel. Using heavy fuels

will result in:

•clogged fuel ﬁlter and nozzle

•carbon build up on spark plug

•the need of non-toxic anti-icer in fuel during very cold weather

IMPORTANT:

Use a KEROSENE ONLY storage container. Be sure storage

container is clean. Foreign matter such as rust, dirt, or water will cause the flame-

out control to shut down heater. Foreign matter may also require you to clean fuel

system often.

VENTILATION WARNING

A standard 4 inch (10.16 cm) draft regulator is required only if total vertical and

horizontal length of the vent pipe exceeds 20 feet (6.1 meters). Regulator, vent

pipe, and ﬁttings are not supplied with the heater. Purchase these items at a local

hardware store.

Never use heater without properly installed vent pipe and

regulator. You must vent heater to the outdoors. This as-

sures proper combustion and avoids air contamination in

the room.
