Starting the Heater: (Ignition)
1. Fill the tank with Kerosene or other approved
fuel until needle on fuel gauge points to "F".
2. Replace fuel cap and tighten firmly.
3. Connect the heater to a three prong
(grounded) power source. You must use a
three prong (grounded) extension cord that is
at least 1.8 meters long and is a minimum of
14 AWG rating.
NOTE: On first ignition or after refueling,
you may hear a grinding sound just before
ignition. This is the fuel pump removing the
air from the fuel line. Your heater will start up
within seconds. If it does not start repeat
start-up procedures with fuel gauge reading at
least 1/2 tank.
NOTE: The electrical components of these
heaters are protected by a fuse mounted
in the PC board. If the heater fails to ignite,
check this fuse first and replace if necessary.
Also check the power source to be sure the
proper voltage is being provided to the heater.
1. Complete steps 1-3 above.
2. Push the power switch to the "ON" position.
The power indicator lamp will light and heater
will ignite. (See Figure 5)
