Air filters
Air intake filter:
After a maximum of 500 operational
hours, wash in a mild, soapy solution and
dry thoroughly or replace. Do so more
often if used in dusty environments!
Air intake filter/lint filter:
Replace after a maximum of 500
operational hours or once a year if used
in a dusty environment.
NB: when using diesel, extra
maintenance may be required
Fan blades
Clean at least once a season or whenever necessary. Clean the fan with a soft cloth,
slightly moistened with a gentle soapy solution. Be careful not to move the blades out of
position and check that they are rotating correctly after restarting the heater.
Nozzle
Clean the nozzle as often as required, but at least once per season. Contaminated fuel
may mean the nozzle will have to be cleaned immediately. In order to remove dirt, use a
compressor to blow air from the front of the nozzle. Soak in clean paraffin in order to
remove any stubborn dirt.
Attention:
Using diesel fuel, dirty or old fuel requires additional maintenance. If this is not carried out
in time, it can result in poor combustion and soot formation.
Spark plug
Clean the sparkplug with a wire brush and adjust it, or replace it, after a maximum of 600
operational hours; the opening must be 3.5 mm.
