Operation - HeatStar HS115TC Operating Instructions And Owner's Manual

RATE AND FUEL SELECTION
FUEL SELECTION
When setting up your Nomad heater you will need to
know which fuel you will be using and move the Rate/
Fuel selector switch to the correct settings before use. For
LP you will use the Red settings and rate. For NG you will
use the Blue settings and rates Refer to figure 5.
RATE SELECTION
Your Nomad heater is equipped with multi-rate and dual
fuel technology. During setup of your area to be heated
you have the option to use the heater on either the high
or low setting. In order to bring the heat in your space
up to your desired temperature as quickly as possible set
the heater on its high setting (refer to figure 5). Once
you have your space heated to the desired temperature,
you can then turn your setting to the low position to
maintain your desired temperature resulting in dramatic
cost savings from the lower fuel consumption during the
entire heating project.
OPERATION (NO THERMOSTAT)
Plug in your unit using an appropriately sized properly
grounded three pronged extension cord. Attach the small
length of power cord on the heater to your extension
cord. Once power is supplied to the heater you should
see the green indicator light above the switch light up.
Before you turn on your heater you will want to ensure
that you make your fuel and rate selection. Refer to the
"Rate and fuel selection" section for more information.
You can now flip your power switch to the ON position.
After a few seconds your heater will light and you should
feel hot air begin to emit from the outlet of the heater.
With this setup the heater will run continuously until
the operator flips the switch to the off position. If you
would like your heater to cycle on and off based on
the temperature of the space, you will need to use the
supplied remote thermostat.
OPERATION (WITH THERMOSTAT)
To operate your Nomad heater with a thermostat you will
need to place the thermostat in the environment to be
heated and turn the dial to the lowest temperature. Take
the "Piggy-Back" style plug end that was factory installed
on the thermostat and attach it to the small length of
power cord attached to the heater (located near the
Forced-Air Dual-Fuel NOMAD Construction Heater
power switch). The male plug end of the heater will
go inside the female receptacle on the thermostat plug
end. Next plug in your properly grounded three pronged
extension cord into the other side of the thermostat
plug. You can now switch on your heater and return to
where you have your thermostat located and set the
temperature at which you would like your heater to cycle
on and off at. Once the temperature in the space to be
heated drops below the point at which your thermostat
is set, the green indicator light above the switch will
illuminate and the heat sequence will begin. The unit
will continue to run until the setting of the thermostat
is satisfied. If your heater shuts down for any reason
other than the operator turns it off or the thermostat
is satisfied, refer to the troubleshooting portion of this
manual on page 1 1.
