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 atonce! 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.

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:

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 sys-
tem causes the heater to shut down if the
flame goes out.

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.
