OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
This is a oil/kerosene, direct-fired, forced air heater. Its intended use is
primarily temporary heating of buildings under construction, alteration or
repair.
Direct-Fired means that all of the combustion products enter the
heated space. Even though this heater operates very close to 100
percent combustion efficiency, it still produces small amounts of carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide (called CO) is toxic. CO can build up in a
heated space and failure to provide adequate ventilation could result in
death.
The symptoms of inadequate ventilation are:
• headache
• dizziness
• burning eyes and nose
• nausea
• dry mouth or sore throat
Be sure to follow advice about ventilation in the Safety Precautions
section.
Forced Air means that a blower or fan pushes the air through the heater.
Proper combustion depends upon this air flow. Therefore, the heater
must not be revised, modified or operated with parts removed or missing.
Likewise, safety systems must not be circumvented or modified in order
to operate the heater. When the heater is to be operated in the presence
of other people the user is responsible for properly acquainting those
present with the safety precautions and instructions, and of the hazards
involved.

Operation
For optimal performance of this heater, it is strongly suggested that 1-K
kerosene be used. 1-K kerosene has been refined to virtually eliminate
contaminants, such as sulfur, which can cause a rotten egg odor
during the operation of the heater. However, #1 or #2 fuel oil (diesel
fuel) may also be used if 1-K kerosene is not available. Be advised that
these fuels do not burn as clean as 1-K kerosene, and care should be
taken to provide more fresh air ventilation to accommodate any added
contaminants that may be added to the heated space. Using diesel fuel
can cause excess soot production. DO NOT use any fuel that is not
approved above.
NOTE: Kerosene should only be stored in a blue container that is clearly
marked “kerosene”. Never store kerosene in a red container. Red is
associated with gasoline.
• NEVER store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene should be
stored in a well ventilated area outside the living area.
• NEVER use fuel such as gasoline, benzene, alcohol, white gas,
camp stove fuel, paint thinners, or other oil compounds in this heater
(THESE ARE VOLATILE FUELS THAT CAN CAUSE A FIRE OR
EXPLOSION).
• NEVER store kerosene in direct sunlight or near a source of heat.
• NEVER use kerosene that has been stored from one season to the
next. Kerosene deteriorates over time. OLD KEROSENE WILL NOT
BURN PROPERLY IN THIS HEATER.
• Use 1-K kerosene in this heater. #1 fuel is a suitable substitute.
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.
COMPONENTS OF OPERATION

15
operation
FUELING THE HEATER
Temperature Limit Control: This heater is equipped with a
Temperature Limit Control designed to turn the heater off should the
internal temperature rise to an unsafe level. If this device activates and
turns your heater off, it may require service. Once the temperature falls
below the reset temperature, you will be able to start your heater again.
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.
CAUTION
• 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.
WARNING
• Never refuel this heater while it is hot or operating. Fire or explosion
could result.
It is always a good idea to fire the heater outdoors for the fist time. This
will allow any oils used in the manufacturing process to be burned off in a
safe environment. This initial burn should last at least 10 minutes.

16
operation
STARTING THE HEATER
VENTILATION
1. Fill the tank with kerosene until fuel gauge points to “F”.
2. Be sure fuel cap is secure.
3. Plug power cord into prong, grounded extension cord and plug
extension cord into prong 120V grounded outlet.
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.
Risk of indoor air pollution. Use heater only in well ventilated areas.
NOTICE
• 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.
• 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.

17
STOPPING THE HEATER
RESTARTING THE HEATER
LONG TERM STORAGE
Simply turn the Power switch to “OFF” position and unplug the Power
Cord.
1.Wait ten seconds after shutting off heater.
2. Turn the Power Switch to “ON” position.
3. Be sure to follow all starting procedure precautions.
1. Put the heater on the working table and place an oil container under
the fuel tank.
2. Use a spanner to loose the drain screw und release the water and
waste inside the tank.
3. After draining tighten the drain screw again and wipe clean the leftover
water and oil.
IMPORTANT: Never store leftover kerosene over the summer. Using old
fuel can damage your heater. Store heater in a dry, well-ventilated area.
Be sure that the storage area is free of dust and corrosive vapors. Re-
pack the heater in the original shipping material. Keep the Users Manual
in an easily accessible place.

WARNING
• Never service heater while it is plugged in or while hot!
Maintenance
FUEL TANK
AIR FILTERS
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 shown below:
Flush every 200 hours of operation or as needed. Do not use water to
flush the tank. Use fresh 1-K kerosene only.
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.
NOTE: Use of diesel may require additional maintenance.

19
maintenance
FAN BLADES
NOZZLES
IGNITION ELECTRODE
Blades should be cleaned at least once per heating season, depending
on conditions.
Remove all accumulated dust and dirt with a damp cloth, taking care
not to bend any of the fan blades. Be sure fan blades are restarting the
heater.
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.
NOTE: Use of diesel may require additional maintenance. Using this
heater without proper maintenance or with contaminated or old fuel may
lead to improper combustion and possible soot production.
Clean and re-gap every 600 hours of operation, or replace as needed.
After removing the Spark Plug, clean the terminals with a wire brush. Re-
gap the terminals to 3.5mm.

20
maintenance
PHOTOCELL
FUEL FILTER
The Photocell should be cleaned at least once per heating season or
more depending on conditions.
Use a cotton swap dipped in water or alcohol to clean the lens of the
Photocell. Note the proper Photocell position as noted.
The Fuel Filter should be cleaned at least twice per heating season
by rinsing it in clean 1-K kerosene. Contaminated fuel could make this
immediately necessary.
Use of diesel may require additional maintenance.
Improper maintenance can lead to poor combustion and soot production.
