Turn on burner
(If hot spray or
steam is desired)
If HOT spray or steam is desired, turn on the burner:
1. First make sure vicinity is free of flammable vapors, dust, gases, or
other potentially combustible materials. Operate only where open
flame or torch is permitted.
2. Make sure there is fuel in the burner fuel tank.
CAUTION: Do not run the machine in hot mode without fuel in the
burner's fuel tank, or damage can occur.
3. Make sure the engine throttle is all the way open. If it is not, the engine
will not supply adequate voltage to the burner, resulting in smoke
coming from the heat exchanger during operation.
Turn the heat switch ON and adjust the thermostat to the desired
temperature.
WARNING:
• NEVER attempt to immediately run or re-light the burner if it
doesn't ignite the first time. Unburned oil or gas may have
accumulated, causing potential explosion or fire hazard.
• Do not attempt to set temperature limit above the preset limit.
• Never touch hot burner surfaces and stay clear of burner exhaust.
All are very hot and will burn you.
• Do not inhale burner exhaust. It contains dangerous carbon
monoxide that can kill you.
4. The burner will fire when the trigger is squeezed – follow instructions
for spraying.
Note:
If burner exhaust is white, adjust burner for peak performance. See the
"Oil Burner Adjustment Instructions" step in the "Set-Up" section of this
manual.
5. When the trigger is released, a pressure switch automatically turns the
burner off. Also, when the temperature setting is reached, the
thermostat automatically turns the burner off.
WARNING:
It is important that the burner stops firing when the trigger is
released. If the burner remains firing, discontinue use until the
pressure washer is serviced. Extremely high temperatures can
result in serious injury and equipment damage.
