INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS LOCATING THE APPLIANCE • • • • Position the appliance as close as possible to the chimney. Many configuration are possible, the most frequent are illustrated in figures 1,2 and 3. Respect clearances indicated on page 1. They have been tested according to approvals. Always respect clearances of appliance pipe manufacturers. Larger clearances always prevail.
CHIMNEY INFORMATIONS • Before the hook up of the appliance, inspect the chimney to ensure that it is in good condition and that the quality of the flue will allow a sufficient draft. For a good combustion, refer to the technical data of the appliance to know the minimum draft required. • Factory built (A) or (L) type chimney is approved for this appliance. The chimney has to be well insulated; a chimney with a cold internal surface can prevent a good draft and condensation will occur.
CONNECTING THE APPLIANCE TO THE CHIMNEY • The gases are vented from the back of the appliance. The female part of the black pipe connector has to be installed toward the flue connector of the appliance. Secure all connections with the (3) self taping o screws, with 120 distance between each of them. • The connection between appliance pipes and chimney has to be perfectly airtight. • A maximum horizontal lent of 8' is allowed. Make sure to have a 1/4" slope per foot minimum.
LEVELLING THE APPLIANCE • Now that the appliance is in place and properly hooked up to the chimney, you have to adjust the level of the burner. • Put the level on the burner flange parallel to the door. (Figure 9A). Screw or unscrew the adjustable legs to level the burner with a 7/16" or 10 mm key. • Put the level on the burner flange parallel to the sides. (Figure 9B).
CONNECTING APPLIANCE TO OIL TANK • Make sure that the tank outlet is 12" (305 mm) higher than the inlet of the carburetor. (Gravity fed) • Use only copper piping to connect tank to appliance. • Make sure that there is a small slope on the connection from the tank toward the appliance. • A 3" (75 mm) down slope is needed on the tank itself, from the outlet towards the other end of the tank. • When the tank is installed outdoors, it is preferable to use oil #1, to avoid viscosity problems.
ADJUSTING THE DRAFT • Your appliance operated with natural draft, created by the ascension of combustion gases in the chimney. This movement creates a suction effect in the appliance and forces ambient air to go in the burner by the holes in its surround. These orifices let air in for combustion. • For the appliance to function properly, it is essential to check the quality of the draft using a draft gauge. The draft is usually measured in inches of water column.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS COMBUSTIBLE • Your appliance has been design to work with oil #1 or #2. DO NOT USE GASOLINE, CRANKCASE OIL OR ANY OIL CONTAINING GASOLINE. Drolet Stoves & Fireplaces declines all responsibility regarding damage cause by using other combustibles. • Make sure to use oil without impurities which may plug filters and valve’s orifice. Impurities will only give an improper combustion.
LIGHTING (CONT’D) • Place the flow regulating handle on the "1" position, as soon as the oil has started flowing into the burner, return to "0" position. • Open the door and pore into the burner 2 to 3 once (75 ml) of lighting gel or wood alcohol. NOTE : USING LIGHTING GEL IS BETTER FOR A SAFE IGNITION. • With a long wood match or a BBQ lighter ignite carefully and close the door.
TURNING THE APPLIANCE OFF • Set the flow regulating handle to position 0. • If you plan to keep the appliance off for a long while, it is recommended to disarm the valve’s lever and close the tap on the pipe between the appliance and your oil tank.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE PROBLEMS CAUSES SOLUTION ON POSITION 6 (MAXIMUM) THE FLAME IS LONGER AND PRODUCES SMOKE, THERE IS SOOT BUILD-UP ON THE GLASS Position 6 was reached too quickly. 1. Set flow regulating handle to position 1. 2. wait for combustion to stabilize. 3. Progressively increase flow to desired position. NOTE : SEE LIGHTING PROCEDURES. Maximum flow is too high 1. Set flow to a lower position 2. Call a qualified technician to adjust the valve. Cleaning tee and/or burner are dirty 1.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (CONT’D) PROBLEMS THE FLAME PRODUCES SMOKE, IN ANY POSITION FLAME GOES OUT THE APPLIANCE MAKES NOISE, GOES OUT AND LIGHT UP AGAIN CAUSES Door gasket properly is not SOLUTION sealed 1. Tighten door by turning counter-clockwise the door handle. 2. Check if gasket needs to be changed. The burner orifices are plugged up 1. Clean the burner metallic brush. with a DRAFT is too low 1. Make it checked technician by a Oil level in the tank is too low 1. Fill up the tank.
