SETUP PROCEDURE (HIGH ALTITUDE)
When the FVO-1000TR is required to operate over 2000 feet above sea
level there will be necessary adjustments needed to burn efficiently with
thinner air. Please review the following chart as a starting point; please
note that a combustion analyzer & smoke gun will be required to
achieve optimum set up.

Please refer to the Air adjustment plate diagram on page 6, the
turbulator diagram at the bottom of this page & the nozzle replacement
diagram on page 8.
NOTE: The burners are equipped with a 2.00 X 60W nozzle, due to the
increase density of oil/diesel fuel at colder temperatures.
