III.) Getting Started

IMPORTANT: Proper initial installation of equipment will assure more satisfactory performance, longer service life, and lower maintenance cost.

Make sure the water heater is on a level surface and in a protected area where it is not readily influenced by outside forces such as freezing temperatures, strong winds, rain, etc. Locate the water heater for easy access to fill fluids and make adjustments. It is recommended that a partition is made between the wash area and the water heater to prevent direct nozzle spray from coming in contact with the water heater. Excessive moisture will reduce the water heater’s service life.

IV.) Venting

DANGER: Do not run machine indoors or in an enclosed area without adequate ventilation, or in areas where flammable vapors, (gasoline, solvents, etc.) may be present. Do not vent exhaust gases into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space.

CAUTION: All venting must be in accordance with applicable federal and state laws, and local ordinances. Consult local heating contractors.

If the water heater is to be used in an enclosed area, a flue must be installed to vent burner exhaust to the outside atmosphere. Be sure the flue is the same size as the burner exhaust vent on the water heater lid. Poor draft will cause the water heater to soot and not operate properly. When selecting the location for installation, beware of poorly ventilated locations or areas where exhaust fans may cause an insufficient supply of oxygen. Proper combustion can only be obtained when there is a sufficient supply of oxygen available for the amount of fuel being burned. If it is necessary to install a unit in a poorly ventilated area, outside fresh air may have to be piped to the burner and a fan installed to bring sufficient air into the unit. Locate the water heater in such a manner that the flue will be as straight as possible and protrude through the roof at a proper height and location to provide adequate draft. This oil fired unit must have a draft controller installed in the flue (Part #18007 call 1-800-270-0810 to order). A draft controller will permit proper upward airflow of exhaust flue gases.

V.) Oil Burner

Burner Air Adjustment: The oil burner is preset and performance tested at the factory (elevation 1100 feet).

Aone-time initial correction of the burner for your location will pay off in economy, performance, and extended service life.

1.) Turn the pump and heat switches on (Refer to “Operation” for details). Have someone operate the spray gun so the burner fires.

2.) Loosen the locking screw and close the air band until black smoke appears from the burner exhaust vent. Note the position of the white arrow on the air band.

3.) Slowly open the air band until white smoke just starts to appear.

4.) Turn the air band half way back to the black smoke position previously noted. Tighten the locking screw.

5.) Fine tune the burner air by loosening the shutter lock screw and turning the shutter until the exhaust is cleanest. Tighten the shutter lock screw.

CAUTION: If white smoke appears from the burner exhaust vent during start-up or operation, discontinue use and readjust air bands.

NOTE: If a flue is installed, have a professional serviceman adjust your burner for a #1 or #2 smoke spot on the Bacharach scale.
