Safety Information

Danger: Carbon Monoxide poisoning may

lead to death!

This is a kerosene, direct-fired, forced air heater. It is pri­marily intended for use for temporary heating of buildings
under construction, alteration or repair. Direct-fired means
that all of the combustion products of the heater enter the
heated space. This appliance is rated at 98% combustion
efficiency, but does produces small amounts of carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans can tolerate
small amounts of carbon monoxide, and precautions
should be taken to provide proper ventilation. Failure to
provide proper ventilation in according to this manual can
result in death. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning
resemble the flu. Symptoms of improper ventilation are:

headache * dizziness * burning of the nose and eyes

*

If the heater is being used in the presence of others, be
sure to inform them of all proper safety precautions, oper­ating procedures and hazards. Some people are more
affected by carbon monoxide than others. These are preg­nant women, people with heart or lung disease or anemia,
those under the influence of alcohol or at high altitudes.

-

Check the heater thoroughly for damage before each
use. DO NOT operate a damaged heater.

-

DO NOT modify this heater or operate a heater that
has been modified from it’s original state.

-

Use only K-1 kerosene or #1 fuel oil. Be advised that
diesel fuel may also be used, but because of the addi­tives contained in diesel fuel, increased ventilation will
be required to disperse the added contaminants pro­duced.
required.

-

NEVER use gasoline, naphtha, paint thinner, alcohol or
other fuels of any kind to operate this heater

-

For outdoor use, and indoor use only in well ventilated
areas. Provide at least 3 square feet of opening per
100,000 Btu of rated operation.

-

NEVER use heater in occupied dwellings.

-

Operate heater in a manner that will not directly expose
it to water, rain or dripping water.

-

Keep heater area free from combustible materials such
as gasoline, paint thinners and other flammable vapors
and liquids. Dust is combustible. Do not use heater in
areas of high dust concentration.

Forced Air Heaters

-

Operate only on level and stable surfaces.

-

Do not restrict inlet or outlet of heater. Heater is never
to be used with ductwork.
NEVER leave heater unattended.

-

-

Keep children and animals away from heater.

-

To prevent injury, always wear gloves when handling
heater. Never handle an operating or hot heater, as
severe burns may result.
This heater is not for use on finished floors.

-

Use heater in accordance to local codes and Federal

-

Ordinances.
Use only the electrical/power cord specified. Electrical

-

and grounding connection must comply with National
Electrical Code - ANSI/NFPA 70 (USA) and CSA C22.1
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 (Canada).

Theory of Operation

Fuel System: This heater is equipped with an air pump

that operates off of the electric motor. The pump forces air
through the air line connected to the fuel tank, drawing fuel
to the nozzle in the burner head. Air also passes through
the nozzle where it mixes with the fuel and is sprayed into
the combustion chamber in a fine mist.

Quick-Fire Ignition: A transformer sends high voltage to a
two pronged spark plug. The spark ignites the fuel/air mix­ture as it is sprayed into the combustion chamber.

Air System: A fan is turned by the heavy duty motor,
which forces air around and into the combustion chamber,
where it is super-heated and forced out the front of the
chamber.

Electrical System Protection: The heaters’ electrical sys­tem is protected by a circuit breaker that protects the sys­tem components from damage. If the heater fails, check
the fuse first, and replace if necessary.

Flame Sensor: The heater uses a photocell to “see” the
flame in the combustion chamber. Should the flame extin­guish, the sensor will stop electrical current and the heater
will shut off.

Kerosene

Forced Air Heaters

Fuel (1-K Kerosene)

For the best results when operating this heater, it is strong­ly suggested that 1-K kerosene be used. 1-K kerosene has
been refined to virtually eliminate contaminants such as
sulphur. #1 or #2 fuel oil (diesel fuel) can also be used,
but be advised that these fuels do not burn as clean as
1-K kerosene. Care should be taken to provide more fresh
air to accommodate the added contaminants that will be
present in the heated area.

Kerosene should only be stored in a blue container
that is clearly marked “kerosene”. Never store
kerosene in a red container, because red containers
are associated with gasoline.

Never store kerosene in a living area. Kerosene should

always be stored in a well ventilated area outside of the
living space.
Never store kerosene in direct sunlight or near any heat-

ing source.

WARNING! Never use fuels such as gasoline, ben-

zine, alcohol, white gas, camp stove fuel, paint thinners or
other oil products to fuel this heater. These are volatile
fuels that could cause an explosion or uncontrolled flame.

Never use kerosene that has been stored from one sea­son to the next. Kerosene does break down over time. Old

kerosene will not burn properly in this heater.

Fueling the Heater

Never fill the fuel tank indoors. Always fill the tank
outdoors. Be sure that the heater is on level ground
when fueling, and never overfill the fuel tank.

It is always a good idea to fire the heater outdoors for the
fist time.

Operation

To Start the Heater

1. Fill the tank with kerosene until fuel gauge points to “F”.

2. Be sure fuel cap is secure.

3. Plug power cord into three prong, grounded extension
cord and plug extension cord into three prong 120V
grounded outlet. The extension cord should be at least six
feet long.
Extension cord wire size requirements are as follows:

- 6 to 10 feet (1.8 to 3 meters), use 18 AWG wire.

- 11 to 100 feet (3.4 to 30.4 meters), use 16 AWG wire.

- 101 to 200 feet (30.8 ti 61 meters), use 14 AWG wire.

4. Turn “thermostat control knob” to desired temperature
setting. The setting range is from 40oF to 110oF. Push

the Power switch to the “ON” position. The power indicator
lamp and room temperature display will light and the
heater will start.
Note that the room temperature display will indicate the
following:

- When temperature is less than 0oF, display says “LO”.

- When temperature is above 99oF, display says “HI”.

- Between 0oand 99odisplay shows actual temperature.
If the heater does not fire, the thermostat may be set too
low. Turn the Control Knob to a higher setting until heater
fires. If the heater still does not start, push Power Switch
to “OFF”, then back to “ON”. If heater still does not fire,
see Troubleshooting Guide on Page 12.
NOTE: The electrical components of this heater are pro­tected by a fuse mounted in the PC board. If the heater
fails to fire, check this fuse first, and replace if necessary.
Also check the power source to be sure that the proper
voltage is being provided to the heater.

Ventilation

WARNING! Always provide a fresh air opening in the

heated space of at least three square feet (2,800 sq. cm)
for each 100,000 BTU/Hr. of heater output. Provide a larg­er opening if more heaters are being used.
an PT-215T-KFA heater will require:

- a two-car garage door open 6 inches, or

- a single car garage open 9 inches, or

- two thirty two inch wide windows open fifteen inches.

Nozzles - Nozzles should be cleaned or replaced at least

once per heating season. Contaminated fuel could make
this necessary immediately.

To clean dirt from nozzle, blow compressed air through
nozzle front. It may be necessary to soak nozzle in clean
1-K kerosene to help loosen any particles.

Use only original equipment replacement parts. The use of
alternate or third party components can cause unsafe
operating conditions, and will void your warranty.

We suggest following a maintenance schedule as follows:
Fuel/Fuel Tank - Flush every 200 hours of operation or as

needed. Do not use water to flush the tank. Use fresh 1-K
kerosene only.

Filters - The Air Intake Filter should be replaced or
washed with soap and water and dried thoroughly every
500 hours of operation, or less, depending on conditions.

The Output and Lint Filters should be replaced every

500 hours of operation or less, depending on conditions.
