SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS

IMPORTANT: Read this Owner’s Manual carefully and completely before trying to assemble, operate, or service this heater. Improper use of this heater can cause serious injury or death from burns, ﬁre, explosion, electrical shock, and carbon monoxide poisoning.

DANGER: Carbon monoxide

poisoning may lead to death!

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 include pregnant women, persons with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the inﬂuence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.

Make certain you read and understand all Warnings. Keep this manual for reference. 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.

• Fueling a) Personnel involved with fueling shall

be qualified and thoroughly familiar with the manufacturer's instructions and applicable 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 762cm (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 authority having jurisdiction.

• Never use heater where gasoline, paint thinner, or other highly ﬂammable v apors are present.

• Follow all local ordinances and codes when using heater.

• 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 304.8cm (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.

• Use only in well-vented areas. Before using heater, provide at least a 2800 square cm (three-square-foot) opening of fresh, outside air for each 100,000 Btu/Hr of rating.

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

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

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

• Minimum heater clearances from combustibles:

Outlet: 250 cm (8 Ft.) Sides, Top, and Rear: 125 cm (4 Ft.)

• Locate heater on a stable and level surface if heater is 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.

UNPACKING

1. Remove all packing items applied to

heater for shipment.

2. Remove all items from carton.

3. Check items for any shipping damage.

If heater is damaged, promptly inform dealer where you bought heater.

FUELS

WARNING: 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

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

IMPORTANT:

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.

ASSEMBLY

These models are furnished with wheels and handles. Wheels, handles, 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:

point extended hub of wheels toward wheel support frame (see Figure 3).

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

3. Place heater on wheel support frame. For D20H model, make sure outlet end (front) of heater is over wheels. For D30H and D44H models, 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. For D20H model, place rear handle on top of fuel tank flange. For D30H and D44H models, place front handle and rear handle on top of fuel tank ﬂange. Insert screws through handle(s), 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.

VENTILATION

WARNING: 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.

Axle

Figure 3 - Wheel and Handle Assembly

Provide a fresh air opening of at least 2800 square cm (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 [4.9 m (16 ft.) opening] raised 9 cm (3.5 inches)

Extended Hub

• a single-car garage door [2.75 m (9 ft.) opening] raised 15.25 cm (6 inches)

• two, 76 cm (30 inch) windows raised 28 cm (11 inches)

OWNER’S MANUAL

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 ignition control assembly provides power to the ignitor. This ignites the fuel/air mixture in the combustion chamber.

The Flame-Out Control System

This system causes the heater to shut down if the ﬂame goes out.

STORING, TRANSPORTING, OR SHIPPING

Note:

If shipping, transport companies re-

quire fuel tanks to be empty.

1. Drain fuel tank.

Note:

Some models have drain plug on underside of fuel tank. If so, remove drain plug to drain all fuel. If heater does not have drain plug, drain fuel through fuel cap opening. Be sure all fuel is removed.

2. Replace drain plug if provided.

3. If any debris is noted in old fuel, add 1 or 2 quarts of clean kerosene to tank, stir, and drain again. This will prevent excess debris from clogging filters during future use.

4. Replace fuel cap or drain plug. Properly dispose of old and dirty fuel. Check with local automotive service stations that recycle oil.

5. If storing, store heater in dry place. Make sure storage place is free of dust and corrosive fumes.

IMPORTANT:

summer months for use during next heating season. Using old fuel could damage heater.

Do not store kerosene over
