10. Operation
The first time the oil-metering valve is turned on it will take 5-10 minutes
for the fuel lines to fill and oil to appear in the bottom of the burner.
Lighting Procedure
1. Turn on the fuel pump or open the gravity feed valve to allow fuel to
flow into the oil metering valve on the heater.
2. Open the door or open the lid and twist the superheater so the bottom
makes a good contact with the bottom of the burner.
3. Lift and turn the oil metering valve knob on to setting #5 for 2
minutes to accumulate 2 tablespoons of oil in the bottom of the burner
pot.
4. Then turn the oil metering valve OFF.
5. Twist a piece of tissue, light it and throw it into the pool of oil in the
burner pot. Use a poking tool to push the lit paper into the pool of oil.
6. Once the oil has ignited, replace the lid or close the door.
7. Turn the draft assist fan on to the medium speed (6 o’clock) then turn
it back down to the slowest speed (4 o’clock).
8. After a few minutes, watch the flames grow above the top burner ring
where they should burn at all times.
9. It will take approx. 5-10 minutes for the priming fuel to burn. Once
the flames drop back down into the burner pot it’s time to turn the oil
metering valve back on.
10. Lift and turn the oil metering valve knob to setting #2.5 and turn the
fan OFF and watch the flames grow back to above the top burner ring.
11. Wait 20 minutes for the heater and chimney pipe to warm up before
you adjust the valve further.
*NOTE: The flames must ALWAYS burn above the top burner ring
regardless of the valve setting.
***DANGER: If the flames go out at any point at this stage, turn the
valve off and wait 5-10 minutes for the burner to cool. Re-lighting warm
diesel or a flooded burner can result in an explosion. *Do not use
gasoline or any other flammable materials to light the burner. Do not
operate this heater unattended.
