WHY DOESN'T MY STOVE PRODUCE ENOUGH HEAT?
Possible causes and solutions :
1- The oil flow control knob is set too low.
Solution #1: Increase the oil flow control knob by one position every 10 minutes until the desired intensity
is reached. DO NOT MODIFY THE ADJUSTMENTS ON THE CARBURATOR. The adjustments on the
carburetor are done at the factory level, using specialized equipment. By trying to adjust the carburetor
yourself, you will worsen the problem.
Solution #2: Verify that the cleaning tee rod is completely pulled out toward the exterior of the burner. If
the cleaning tee rod extends to far into the burner, it can overheat. This can cause the small orange rubber
joint to melt and partially block the oil entry into the burner.
2- The stove is not level and the carburetor is sitting lower than the burner. Since your stove is gravity fed, it
is essential that the oil be able to flow from the carburetor to the burner. For this to occur, the carburetor
must be sitting at a higher level that the burner. The burner must also be level in order to allow for a
uniform dispersion of the oil.
Solution: Make sure that the carburetor is sitting higher than the burner. Then, make sure that the burner
is level. Put a level on top of the burner and adjust the stove's threaded legs accordingly.
Step #1 : level the burner in the east/west direction.
