IMPORTANT

Before using the heater, read and understand all instructions and

follow them carefully. The manufacturer is not responsible for

damages to goods or persons due to improper use of units.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The direct-red heater runs on diesel fuel. This direct combustion

heater exhausts hot air and the combustion products into

the room, while those with indirect combustion are ﬁtted

with a ﬂue to take the fumes away through the chimney.

Always follow local ordinances and codes when using this

heater:

• Read and follow this owner’s manual before using the

heater.

• Use only in places free of ammable vapors or high dust

content.

• Never use heater in immediate proximity of ammable

materials (the minimum distance must be 6 ft.).

• Make sure re ghting equipment is readily available.

• Make sure sufcient fresh outside air is provided according

to the heater requirements. Direct combustion heaters

should only be used in well vented areas in order to avoid

carbon monoxide poisoning.

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

• In case of very low temperatures add kerosene to the

heating oil.

• Make sure heater is always under surveillance and keep

children and animals away from it;

• Before starting the heater always check free rotation of

ventilator fan.

• Unplug heater when not in use.

The generator can only work automatically when a control device,

such as for example a thermostat or a timer, is connected to the

generator. Connection to the generator is made by removing the

socket cover(4) and inserting the thermostat plug.

To start the machine you must:

•If connected to the thermostat, turn the switch to (ON + );

•If not connected to the thermostat, turn the switch to (ON).

When unit is started for the ﬁrst time or is started after the oil

tank has been totally emptied, the ﬂow of oil to the burner may

be impaired by air in the circuit. In this case the control box will

cut out the heater and it might be necessary to renew the starting

procedure once or twice by depressing the reset button (1).

Should the heater not start, check that oil tank

is full and depress reset button (1).

Should the heater still not work, please refer to chapter

“OBSERVED FAULTS, CAUSES AND REMEDIES”.

STOPPING THE HEATER

Set main switch (3) on “0” position or turn thermostat or other

control device on lowest setting.

The ﬂame goes out and the fan continues to work for approx.

90sec. cooling the combustion chamber.

SAFETY DEVICES

The unit is ﬁtted with an electronic ﬂame control box. In case of

malfunction this box will cut in and stop the heater, at the same

time the pilot lamp in the control box reset button (1) will light up.

Heaters are also equipped with an overheat thermostat safety

cutout which will stop the heater in case of overheating. This

thermostat will reset automatically but you will have to depress

button (1) on control box before being able to restart the heater.
