2. Before using the heater, read and understand all instructions and follow them carefully. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages to goods or
persons due to improper use.
3. Ensure fire-fighting equipment is available and suitable to the potential of the heater.
4. Check that the fuel is the appropriate type for this unit (#1 or #2 fuel oil, or kerosene).
5. Check that there is sufficient fuel in the fuel tank by reading the fuel gauge embedded near the fuel filter.
6. If not already closed, close the tank cap by rotating it clockwise. It is recommended to use winter diesel oil below ambient temperatures of 41 °F.
7. Ensure minimum safety clearances from combustibles is achieved in all directions.
8. Make sure that flue gas is adequately ventilated from the chimney.

flipping the power switch from “OFF” to “ON”. The burner box will begin firing, which will
heat up the combustion chamber. Within 30 seconds the blower fan will activate.
NOTE: If the heater switches off due to a lack of fuel, top off the tank and reset the heater
(see page 6).
EXTERNAL THERMOSTAT SOCKET
The heater will only work automatically when a control device, such as the included
thermostat, is connected to the heater. Connect by removing the thermostat socket cap
