OPERATION

WARNING! This heater is not suitable for use with Bio-Diesel; the use of Bio-Diesel will damage the filter and seals. Damage caused by the use of Bio- Diesel will not be covered by a warranty.
5.1. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
5.1.1. Fuel System: This heater is equipped with an air pump that operates off 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 as a fine mist.
5.1.2. Quick-Fire Ignition: A transformer sends high voltage to a two-pronged spark plug.
5.1.3. The spark ignites the fuel/air mixture as it is sprayed into the combustion chamber.
5.1.4. 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.
5.1.5. Electrical System Protection: The heater’s 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.
5.1.6. Flame Sensor: The heater uses a photocell to see the flame in the combustion chamber. Should the flame extinguish, the sensor will stop the electrical current and the heater will shut off.
5.1.7. Tip-over Sensor: The heater uses a tip-over sensor.
5.1.8. Fuel: the heater operates with paraffin, kerosene, or diesel fuel. DO NOT use any other type of fuel.
5.1.9. When used in the construction or agricultural industries ensure that the safety regulations in force are adhered to with regard to distances from flammable materials and any other specified substances.
WARNING! Air contaminants taken into the heater may affect the heat output, damage the unit, and may cause health problems. Example: Bodyshop filler dust/paint overspray will damage the motor bearing, clog the filter and compressor and contaminate the combustion chamber causing flame flutter and health hazards. Please note that any art damaged by filler dust/paint overspray will not be covered by warranty. Additionally, a cleaning charge will be made for any heaters damaged by filler dust/ paint overspray.

5.2. VENTILATION:
WARNING! Only use the heater in well-ventilated areas. Careful consideration must be given to the placing of the heater to provide safe and comfortable heating. Ensure continuous ventilation is provided to the heater operating area. A ventilation opening must run to the outside of the premises in which the heater is to be operated.
The heater requires a fresh air opening of at least 2800cm².
For Example:
– A two-car garage door should be open at least 11cm.
– A single-car garage door should be open at least 16cm.
– Two 76cm windows should be open at least 20cm.
5.3. STARTING THE HEATER
NOTE: If air has entered the fuel line; possible when new, when left standing for a long period, or when the tank level has fallen too low, priming may be necessary (see 5.3.4).   preferable to start the heater outdoors for the first time, to allow any oils left over from the manufacturing process and transporting to be burnt off in a safe environment. Run it for 10 minutes on this first burn.
5.3.1. Carefully fill the fuel tank with clean approved fuel until the fuel gauge (Fig.1B) points to ‘F’.
5.3.2. Ensure the fuel cap is secure.
5.3.3. Plug the power cord into a suitable power socket. If using an extension lead see Electrical Safety section 1.1.
5.3.4. Turn the power knob in Fig.1 from “O” to the “ “ setting. The green “power indicator” lamp will illuminate, and the fan will run the following thing in 15 seconds by the ump. Inside the next 30 seconds, the heater will ignite. If the heater does not ignite the red “Misfire” lamp will illuminate and flash after 3 attempts. Switch the unit off “O” and wait approximately 20 seconds before attempting to ignite again; these 20 seconds will allow the PCB to recalibrate. On successful ignition, if required, increase the heat by turning the knob to set
5.3.5. When switching from one heat level to another during operation, it may cease operating and go into the misfire sequence. If this happens, turn the power knob to the “O” position and immediately turn it to the desired heat level.
NOTE: The electrical components of this heater are protected by a fuse mounted in the PCB. If the heater fails to fire, check this fuse first, and replace if necessary. Also, check the power source to ensure that the correct voltage is being provided to the heater.
5.4. TILTING FEATURE
5.4.1. Loosen the hand screws on the main frame of the heater, position the heater in the desired position and tighten the hand screws to secure the heater in the tilted position.
5.5. TO STOP THE HEATER
5.5.1. Turn the power knob to the “O” position, and the green “power indicator” will go off. Combustion will stop, and the Cooling Cycle (approx. 5 minutes in duration) will begin.
5.5.2. When the Cooling Cycle is completed (fan stops running), it is safe to unplug the heater.
WARNING! Unplugging the heater before the Cooling Cycle has finished may cause overheating, and possible damage to the heater and heat plate, and will invalidate the warranty.
5.6. RESTART THE HEATER
5.6.1. Wait ten seconds after the cooling cycle has been completed.
5.6.2. Turn the power knob to the position and wait 10 seconds before adjusting the heat level if required.
