OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
This is a kerosene, direct-fired, forced air heater. It's intended
use is primarily temporary heating of buildings under
construction, alteration or repair.
Direct-Fired means that all of the combustion products enter the
heated space. Even though this heater operates very close to
100 percent combustion efficiency, it still produces small
amounts of carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide (called CO) is
toxic. We can tolerate small amounts but not a lot. CO can build
up in a heated space and failure to provide adequate ventilation
could result in death. The symptoms of inadequate ventilation
are:
headache
burning eyes and nose
dry mouth or sore throat
So, be sure to follow advice about ventilation in these operating
instructions.
dizziness
nausea
Forced Air means that a blower or fan pushes the air through
the heater. Proper combustion depends upon this air flow;
therefore, the heater must not be revised, modified or operated
with parts removed or missing. Likewise, safety systems must
not be circumvented or modified in order to operate the heater.
When the heater is to be operated in the presence of other
people the user is responsible for properly acquainting those
present with the safety precautions and instructions, and of
the hazards involved.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.Check the heater thoroughly for damage. DO NOT operate a
damaged heater.
2.DO NOT modify the heater or operate a heater which has
been modified from its original condition.
3.Use only Kerosene or #1 fuel oil. Never use gasoline,
naphtha, paint thinner, alcohol or other fuels of any kind.
4. For indoor use only. Use only in well ventilated areas.
Provide at least 2 sq. ft. of opening near the floor and
2 sq. ft. of opening near the ceiling. (Also see "Operating
Precautions").
5. Install the heater such that it is not directly exposed to water
spray, rain and/or dripping water.
6. Maintain minimum clearance from normal combustible
material (like paper) at least 8 ft. from the heater outlet and
3 ft. from the top, sides and inlet. Locate 10 ft. from canvas
or plastic coverings and secure them to prevent flapping or
movement.
7.Due to the high surface and exhaust temperatures, adults
and children must observe clearances to avoid burns or
clothing ignition.
8. Never use in areas normally for habitation and/or where
children may be present.
9. Operate only on a stable, level surface.
10. Do not use with duct work. Do not restrict inlet or exit.
11. Use only the electrical power specified. The electrical
connection and grounding must comply with National
Electrical Code - ANSI/NFPA 70 (USA) and CSA C22.1
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 (Canada).
12. Use only a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle or
extension cord.
13. Do not move, handle or service while hot or burning.
14. Use only in accordance with local codes and federal
ordinances.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARING FOR OPERATION
1. Check the heater for possible shipping damage. If any is
found, immediately notify the factory.
2. Follow all of the "Precautions".
3. Fill the fuel tank with clean kerosene, No. 1 fuel oil or No. 1
diesel fuel only. Kerosene is recommended for use when
the temperature drops below O*F (-18°C). In extremely cold
weather, condensation may develop in the tank and it is
recommended that a tablespoon of de-icer be added for
each gallon (4 liters) of fuel in the tank. When filling the
heater, use at least 2 gallons (8 liters) of fuel. Be sure
heater is level and do not overfill. Use a funnel or can with a
long fill spout.
IMPORTANT: Before filling fuel tank the first time or after
extended storage periods, drain the fuel tank of any
moisture or condensation.
4. Locate heater at a safe distance from combustible
materials. Model K75 is not suitable for use on wood floors
or other combustible materials. When used, the heater
should rest on suitable insulating material at least 1 inch
think and extending 3 ft. or more beyond the heater in all
directions.
START
1. Turn thermostat to lowest setting. Plug heater into a well
grounded 115V, 60HZ, 1@ outlet. Turn thermostat to highest
setting. Start heater by pushing toggle switch to "ON"
position (light signifies switch is in "ON" position). Adjust
thermostat to desired setting. Heater will cycle on/off, as
heat is required.
In cold weather, starting may be improved by holding a
finger over the end of the pressure adjusting screw until the
heater starts. This unit is equipped with a circuit breaker
located near the power cord. If the unit does not start, check
to see that the reset button is pressed in.
STOP
1.For a short duration shutdown, press toggle switch to "OFF"
position. For extended shutdown, unplug the heater.

MAINTENANCEAND STORAGE
WARNING. To prevent personal injury, unplug the heater
from the wall outlet before servicing.
For maximum efficiency and trouble-free service, make the
following periodic maintenance, cleaning and inspections.
DAILY SCHEDULE
1.GENERAL. Make general visual inspection of heater for
loose or damaged parts. Check nuts and bolts to insure
against looseness caused by vibration or rough handling.
Damaged parts should be repaired or replaced before
using heater again. Check heater operation to be sure it is
operating normally (See "Servicing" section for description
of normal operation).
2.FILTERS. Dirty air or fuel filters will cause an imbalance in
the air-fuel mixture. The best indication that this condition
exists is an increase in odors or difficulty getting your heater
to ignite. This heater should never be operated without the
filters in place. If required, clean filters as described under
“500 Hours" and "Annual Schedules".
500 HOUR SCHEDULE
AIR INTAKE FILTER. Remove and wash the filter element
with a mild detergent, dry thoroughly and replace. Do not oil
the filter element. If your heater is used where there is
considerable dust or dirt, clean as often as necessary
(approximately every 50 hrs.).
2.REMOVE DUST. Clean heater twice a season (more often
under dusty conditions). Remove accumulated dust from
the transformer, burner, motor and fan blades with
compressed air. Wipe area clean with a clean dry cloth.
Inspect area to insure all foreign materials are removed,
especially around the burner and combustion area.
3.CAD CELL. Clean the glass portion of the cad cell with a
soft dry cloth.
4. NOZZLE. Accumulation of dirt from fuel and carbon from the
compressor vanes will eventually fill up the passages in the
nozzle, resulting in reduction of fuel and air flow. Pressure
will gradually increase giving improper fuel-air mixture and
excess odor and smoke. If this occurs, replace the fuel
nozzle.
5.FUEL TANK. Clean twice a season (during frequently used
periods, clean twice a month). Drain and flush the fuel tank
with clean fuel oil.
_
ANNUAL SCHEDULE
LAIR OUTPUT FILTER. Remove the air output filter and tap
the contaminated side gently on a solid object to remove
contaminates. Compressed air or liquids should not be
used to clean this filter. Reinstall cleaned filter in filter body
in the same position as it was when removed. If the filter
appears extremely dirty, replace it with a new filter of the
same type. When replacing the filter cover, be sure the
gasket is firmly in place and the screws in the filter cover are
tight to prevent air leaks.
2.FUEL FILTER. Remove the fuel filter from fuel line and
direct compressed air through the filter in the opposite
direction of fuel flow. Safety glasses should be worn when
using compressed air.
3.AIR AND FUEL LINES. If the air or fuel lines are removed
during cleaning, be sure all connections are tight before
operating unit.

4 AIR PRESSURE SETTING. The air pressure has been
properly set at the factory. If the air pressure is out of
adjustment, it will most likely be caused by dirty air filters, a
partially plugged nozzle, an air leak in the system or
improperly set pressure. If adjustment becomes
necessary, first determine the proper pressure setting for
your heater which is printed on the serial label located on
the fuel tank. Remove the plug from the air filter cover and
attach an accurate pressure gauge calibrated to a
maximum reading of 15 PSI, Start the heater and note the
pressure reading. If the pressure is low, slowly turn the
pressure adjusting screw in (Clockwise) until the correct
pressure is obtained. If the air pressure is high, turn the
adjusting screw out (counterclockwise) until the pressure is
correct. When correct pressure is reached, unplug the
heater, remove the gauge and replace the plug.
STORAGE
Store the heater in a dry location free from fumes or dust.
At the end of each heating season, clean the heater as
described in the MAINTENANCE section. Drain and flush the
fuel tank with clean fuel. The manufacturer recommends
completely filling the tank with fuel for extended storage to
minimize condensation inside the tank.
SERVICING
A hazardous condition may result if a heater is used that has
been modified or is not functioning properly. When the heater is
working properly:
* The flame is contained within the heater.
* The flame is essentially yellow.
* There is no strong disagreeable odor, eye burning or other
physical discomfort.
* There is no smoke or soot internal or external to the heater.
* There are no unplanned or unexplained shut downs of the
heater.
The parts lists and wiring diagram show the heater as it was
constructed. Do not use a heater which is different from that
shown. Heater performance is effected by air pressure setting.
If there is any uncertainty about the air pressure setting, have it
checked.
A heater which is not working right must be repaired, but only by
a trained, experienced service person. To find the service center
closest to you, visit our website at www.scheuco.com.or call
(888) 619-7060.
You may also obtain in-warranty or out-of-warranty service by
taking the product to your local service center.
In-warranty products will be repaired with no charge for either
parts or labor. Please include a brief statement indicating date,
place of purchase, the nature of the problem and proof of
purchase.
Out-of-warranty products will be repaired with a charge for parts
and labor.
