Maintenance Tips

• Pre-Use Inspection: Check for fuel leaks, loose connections, and worn hoses before operation. Ensure glycol lines and heat exchangers are in good condition.
• Use Clean, High-Quality Fuel: Always use fresh diesel fuel. Drain water and contaminants from the fuel tank and filters regularly to prevent clogging.
• Monitor and Change Engine Oil: Regularly check the oil level and change it according to the manufacturer’s schedule using the recommended oil type.
• Inspect and Maintain Glycol System: Ensure glycol levels are adequate, inspect hoses for leaks, and use the recommended glycol-to-water mixture for efficient heat transfer.
• Clean or Replace Air Filters: Keep air filters clean for proper airflow, preventing reduced efficiency and overheating. Replace as needed.
• Check Hydraulic System: Inspect hydraulic fluid levels and hoses for leaks. Change hydraulic oil and filters as specified by the manufacturer.
• Test Safety and Control Systems: Verify the operation of thermostats, flame sensors, emergency shutoff mechanisms, and circulation pumps for safe and reliable performance.
• Inspect Exhaust and Venting: Keep exhaust vents and air intakes free from obstructions to prevent carbon monoxide buildup and ensure efficient combustion.
• Keep the Unit Clean: Remove dirt, glycol spills, and debris after each use to prevent corrosion and maintain efficiency.
• Proper Storage: Store in a dry, covered location when not in use. If storing long-term, drain fuel, check glycol levels, and protect components from extreme temperatures.
