Dayton Operating Instructions and Parts Manual

Models 2E510D, 2E511D, 3E218D, and 3E219C

General Safety Information

Make certain you read and understand all warnings. Keep these instructions for reference. They are your guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.

Safety information appears throughout these instructions. Pay close attention to them. Below are definitions for the safety information listed throughout this manual.

Under this heading, installation, operat-

ing and maintenance procedures or practices will be found that, if not carefully followed, WILL result in IMMEDIATE serious personal injury or death.

Under this heading, installation, operating, and maintenance proce-

dures or practices will be found that, if not carefully followed, COULD result in severe personal injury or death.

Under this heading, installation, operat-

ing, and maintenance procedures or practices will be found that, if not carefully followed, COULD result in minor personal injury, product or property damage.

IMPORTANT: Every possible circumstance that might involve a hazard cannot be anticipated. The warnings in this manual and on tags or decals affixed to the unit are therefore not all-inclusive. If a procedure, work method, or operating technique not specifically recommended by Dayton is used, you must make sure it is safe for you and others. You should also ensure that equipment will not be damaged or made unsafe by the operating or maintenance method you choose.

Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead

to death! Carbon monoxide poisoning: Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. 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.

Improper use of this heater can

cause serious injury or death from burns, fire, explosion, electrical shock, and carbon monoxide poisoning.

Make certain you read and understand all warnings. Keep these instructions for reference. They are 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.

Fueling

a)Personnel involved with fueling shall be qualified and thoroughly familiar with the manufacturer's instructions and applicable federal, state, and local regulations regarding the safe fueling of heating units.

b)Only the type of fuel specified on the heater's data plate shall be used.

c)All flame, including the pilot light, if any, shall be extinguished and the heater allowed to cool, prior to fueling.

d)During fueling, all fuel lines and fuel-line connections shall be inspected for leaks. Any leaks shall be repaired prior to returning the heater to service.

e)At no time shall more than one day's supply of heater fuel be stored inside a building in the vicinity of the heater. Bulk fuel storage shall be outside the structure.

f)All fuel storage shall be located a minimum of 25 feet from heaters, torches, welding equipment, and similar sources of ignition (exception: the fuel reservoir integral with the heater unit).

g)Whenever possible, fuel storage shall be confined to areas where floor penetrations do not permit fuel to drip onto or be ignited by a fire at lower elevation.

h)Fuel storage shall be in accordance with the federal, state, or local authority having jurisdiction.

Never use heater where gasoline, paint thinner, or other highly flammable vapors are present.

Follow all local ordinances and codes when using heater.

Use only in well-vented areas. Provide at least three square feet of fresh, outside air for each 100,000 BTU/Hr of rating. This heater produces carbon monoxide, which is listed by the State of California as a reproductive toxin under Proposition 65.

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 extension cord.

General Safety Information

(Continued)

Heaters used in the vicinity of tarpaulins, canvas, or similar enclosure materials shall be located a safe distance from such materials. The recommended minimum safe distance is 10 feet. It is further recommended that these enclosure materials be of a fire retardant nature. These enclosure materials shall be securely fastened to prevent them from igniting or from upsetting the heater due to wind action.

Minimum heater clearances from combustibles:

Outlet: 8 Ft.

Sides: 4 Ft.

Top: 4 Ft.

Rear: 4 Ft.

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 pluggedin heater.

Never attach duct work to front or rear of heater.

THEORY OF OPERATION

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.

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.

FUELS

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.

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 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.

Follow the minimum fresh, outside

air ventilation requirements. If proper fresh, outside air ventilation is not provided, carbon monoxide poisoning can occur. Provide proper fresh, outside air ventilation before running heater.

Provide a fresh air opening of at least three square feet for each 100,000 Btu/Hr rating. Provide extra fresh air if more heaters are being used.

Example: A 150,000 Btu/Hr heater requires one of the following:

a two-car garage door raised six inches

a single-car garage door raised nine inches

two, thirty-inch windows raised twelve inches

11 to 100 feet long, use 16 AWG rated cord.
