THEORY OF | The Fuel System: The air pump forces air through the air line. The air is then | ||||

fine 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. |

FUELS | WARNING |
|
Use only kerosene or No. 1 fuel oil to avoid risk of fi re or explosion. Never use gasoline, naphtha, paint thinners, alcohol or other highly fl 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 filter and nozzle
•carbon build up on spark plug
•use of
IMPORTANT: Use a KEROSENE ONLY container. Be sure storage container is clean. Foreign matter such as rust, dirt, or water will cause the
