INSTRUCTIONS
(Refer to
the illustrations in
the parts list
to identify
the various
parts mentioned
below.)
TO FILL
1. Remove tank from case
and check both stem
and
wheels on the tank valve.
The
black wheel
or air
valve and the red valve or fuel valve
must be closed
by turning to the right as far as possible.
2.
Remove the pump assembly from
the tank and
fill with a GOOD GRADE
OF CLEAN,
FRESH
FUEL.
3. Replace
pump
assembly
by
turning down snuggly
with
fingers.
4.
Wipe
off any
gasoline that has been spilled
while
filling.
ATTACH TANK
1.
Place tank and generator on the stove
by
insert-
ing the air tip hood of the generator
in the
hole of
the outer
shield
on the
manifold.
This is behind and
above the first or master
burner.
2.
Hook the tank on the case tank shield and push
down
to seat firmly.
AIR
PRESSURE
1. Be certain both valves are closed.
2. Pump about
35
strokes.
3. If the
gas
tip
hood fails
to
seat properly within
the
opening
in
the air shield,
it
may
be
necessary
to
loosen
the
screws
that
hold
the
manifold
in
position, and move the manifold assembly either
forward
or backward.
LIGHTING
1. Valve handle for other burners must be pushed
in. Open black valve about one
turn.
Light match
and open red valve slowly, holding match at burner
under generator until it lights. After burning about
two minutes, slowly close black valve as this sup-
plies air only for starting.
In
lighting, if
the
flame
goes down or dies out, pump in more air.
IF
BLACK
VALVE IS LEFT
OPEN AFTER LIGHTING OPER-
ATION, PRESSURE WILL GO DOWN.
IMPORTANT
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not rush the
lighting operation with this
stove
or you will have a high, yellow, smoky flame.
TO LIGHT
OTHER
BURNER
Slide valve handle out from case and light burner.
When two
burners
are
used it is
obvious
that
more
gas must be supplied.
The
flow of gas is regulated
by
opening or closing the red valve.
TO
EXTINGUISH
Close red valve
tight. A little
gas will continue to
escape from the generator for a moment or two after
valve is closed.
This
does
not
indicate that the
valve leaks.
Be
sure the red valve is closed
tight.
IMPORTANT!
After appliance has been
in
use, the packing In
the valve
stem
nuts
canshrink and cause a
leak.
Tighten nut with wrench
to
stop
leak.
Be sure
to empty fuel from tank when appliance is to be
out of use for some time.
GENERAL
INFORMATION.
If flame has
a tendency
to go
out when closing
the
black
valve, open
red valve
wider
and then
close
the black valve
more slowly.
Best results
are
ob-
tained
by using a low
flame
for
about two
minutes,
until the
generator
is thoroughly
heated.
If stove
burns with a yellow
flame
there may be
liquid
gas-
oline
in the manifold.
With
instant starting
gasoline
pressure
stoves some
liquid
gasoline
will pass
into
the manifold.
As the manifold
heats,
this gas-
oline will
vaporize and
the burners
will
burn with
a blue
flame.
If flame blows
away
from burner,
there is too
much air
pressure
in
the
tank,
or black
valve has
been left
open.
This
stove has
an air
adjustment
located
on the
top of
the
outer
shield
above the
end of the gen-
erator. For
more air, loosen
screw and
slide to the
left in the
direction of
the arrow.
Extreme changes
in altitude may
require a
change
in this
shutter from
the factory setting.
After the stove
has operated for at
least
ten
minutes
and the flame tends
to blow away from
the burner,
it is an indication
that the air
adjustment
is
too
far open.
Closing it too much will
give a yellow
(rather than blue) flame.
If stove will
not
burn, or goes
out while
burning,
this
may
be
due
to lack of
fuel or air
pressure
or
the gas tip on
the
generator may
be clogged.
To
remedy,
close and
open red
valve
quickly or
re-
move and
clean
or replace
gas tip.
If needle
point
is
bent, replace.
Air or
fuel orifice
in the
tank
valve may
be clogged.
To remedy,
unscrew
valve
from tank and
clean
both orifices.
If stove pops
and blows out,
this is
probably due
to burned
out rings
on the
burners. Replace
with
new burner rings.
Should generator
leak gas
while stove
is not
burn-
ing, tighten
the red
valve more.
If
leakage
still
occurs,
replace the
gas tip, as
the orifice
may have
become
enlarged
by the action
of the needle
point.
CARE
OF
STOVE
1. Keep
cabinet and
parts clean.
2.
Store in
a
dry
place.
3. Clean
burner
periodically
by removing
two
screws
and lifting
them off
manifold.
4.
Empty and dry out tank
before
putting
in storage.
5.
Keep packing
nuts on
the two
valve wheels
tight
to avoid gasoline
leaks.
6.
Replace
gas tip
on
generator and needle
valve
occasionally.
Needle points
for
repair
are extra long
be-
cause they
do not
screw into
the stem
the same
distance.
They need
to
be cut off and
trimmed
to a
tapered point
that
extends
through the
tip
about
one-sixteenth
of an inch.
