THEORy OF OPERATION
The Fuel System: The motor turns the fuel pump. The fuel pump pulls fuel from the fuel tank.
The fuel pump pushes fuel through a lter and a solenoid valve and out the burner head
nozzle. A ne 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 electronic ignitor sends voltage to the spark plug. The spark plug
ignites the fuel and air mixture.
The Flame-Out Control System: This system causes the heater to shut down if the ame goes
out. It also allows the fan to continue running after normal shutdown of heater. This cools the
combustion chamber.

of re or explosion. Never use
gasoline, naphtha, paint thin-
ners, alcohol or other highly
ammable fuels.
Do not use heavy fuels such as No. 2 fuel oil or
No. 2 diesel. Using heavy fuels will result in:
• clogged fuel lter and nozzle
• carbon build-up on spark plug
• the need of non-toxic anti-icer in fuel during
very cold weather
IMPORTANT: Use a KEROSENE ONLY
storage container. Be sure storage container
is clean. Foreign matter such as rust, dirt or
water will cause ame-out control to shut
down heater. Foreign matter may also require
you to clean fuel system often.
VENTILATION
WARNING: Follow the mini-
mum fresh, outside air ventila-
tion requirements. If proper
fresh, outside air ventilation is
not provided, carbon monoxide
poisoning can occur. Provide
proper fresh, outside air ventila-
tion before running heater.

cycle. The purge cycle cools the
combustion chamber. Damage
to heater can occur if combus-
tion chamber is not cooled. Do
not restart heater until purge
cycle is complete.
1. Turn thermostat dial to lowest temperature
setting. This will cause heater ame to go
out. The motor will continue to run during
the purge cycle. This allows the fan to cool
the combustion chamber. When the purge
cycle is nished, the motor will stop. Do not
unplug heater until purge cycle is nished.
2. Unplug extension cord from outlet.
3. To temporarily stop heater, set thermostat
at a temperature lower than air around
heater. Heater will cycle back on if air
temperature around heater matches
thermostat setting.
TO RESTART HEATER
CAUTION: Do not restart
heater until purge cycle is n-
ished. The purge cycle cools the
combustion chamber.
1. Wait until purge cycle is nished after
stopping heater.
2. Repeat steps under To Start Heater.
