3. Operation

3.1 System Description

The Cub 400 and Cub 700 heaters are indirect-fired air heaters. TheCub 400 and 700 have stainless steel fireboxes and heat exchangers.They run on three fuel options: diesel, natural gas (NG), or LP. The fuelis consumed in a closed combustion chamber. The exhaust gases arevented outdoors through a vent pipe. The clean, dry hot air is blown orciculated in the space by a centrifugal blower. The blower assembly isprotected by a guard fitted on the air inlet. Cub 400 and Cub 700 heaters are meant to heat air on constructionsites and in other rugged applications. Do not use the Cub 400 or Cub700 for any other purpose.

Operation Cub 400/700

3.6 Preliminary Checks

Before starting the Cub 400 or Cub 700, check the following:

• Fuel supply on diesel burning machines. See Fuel Blending Guide.

• Position of operation mode switch. It must be in the OFF (“0”) position.

• Power supply.Each machine must be connected to two (2) separate power supplies adhering to specific requirements. Please see the Technical Data tables in this manaul for the specific power requirements.Note: On diesel burning machines, the fuel heater will begin heating the fuel as soon as power is connected to the machine.

• Thermostat plug/remote thermostat connection. Either the thermostat plug or the remote thermostat cable must be connected in order for the machine to operate.

Cub 400/700 Operation

3.7 Starting the Machine

3.7.1 If using the remote thermostat, place it in the area to be heated. Set itto the desired temperature.

3.7.2 Turn the operation mode switch tothe HEAT position.The burner will start. It will go througha prepurge cycle and then light.As soon the air temperature reachesapproximately 104°F (40°C), theblower will start.The burner will continue to fire until the temperature of the space beingheated reaches the temperature set by the thermostat. At that time, theburner shuts down but the blower will remain on.

Operation Cub 400/700

3.8 Shutting Down the Machine

3.8.1 Turn the operation mode switch tothe OFF (“0”) position.The burner will shut down. As soon as the air temperaturedecreases to below approximately104°F (40°C), the blower will stop.

Electric shock and cutting injury hazard! At temperatures above 104°F(40°C), electric power is available at the supply blower even with theoperation mode switch in the OFF position. Always remove all powerto the machine before servicing it.

3.8.2 Once the blower has shut off automatically, disconnect the powersupply cord. NOTICE: Do not disconnect the power supply cord until the blower hascooled the heat exchanger and has shut off automatically.

3.8.3 Disconnect the remote thermostat and re-install the thermostat plug.3.8.4 When using NG or LP gas, have a qualified and licensed technician

disconnect the gas supply.

3.10 Adjusting the Recirculation System

See Graphic: wcghi_gr0038843.10.1 When the machine is positioned within the space (A) to be heated, the

recirculation baffle can be used to reduce fuel costs. The open positionof the recirculation baffle brings air to the heat exchanger from thespace to be heated instead of using cooler, outside air. This practicesaves fuel and provides the ability to achieve higher internal buildingtemperatures because the machine does not have to raise thetemperature of recirculated (preheated) as far as it does the outsidenon-recirculated air.

3.10.2 When the machine is positioned outside of the space (B) to be heated,the recirculation baffle can be used to introduce fresh air into the airsupply.

See Graphic: wcghi_gr0033875Suffocation hazard! Exhaust gas from this machine contains carbonmonoxide, which is an odorless, colorless, and deadly gas. Thismachine must be properly vented to reduce the risk of carbonmonoxide poisoning.

When installing vents:• Adhere to all local and national codes.• Consult all appropriate governing bodies or local contractor for

venting and fresh air requirements.• Place the machine in a manner that avoids excessive vent bends

(elbows), and long horizontal runs.• Keep air inlets and outlets free from obstruction. • Route the venting pipes in a manner that avoids any flammable

material. • Route the venting pipes in a manner that avoids contact with

humans.

4.7 OIl Burner Adjustments

The machine should be operated with standard diesel/fuel oil (OIL)DIESEL. Note: All burners are test fired at Ground Heaters, Inc.'s factorylocated 600 ft.(180 m) above sea level (asl) using 70/30% blend of #2diesel with additives (70%) and #1 (K1) diesel (30%) with additives. The use of a high quality combustion analyzer and fuel pressure testgauge is mandatory. All adjustments must be accomplished by alicensed professional and must conform to the requirements of local,state and federal codes and authorities. A qualified technician mustrecalibrate the burner air and fuel settings to obtain proper combustionat your work site.To ensure proper burner performance and to avoid machine downtimedue to heater sooting, burner combustion verification and adjustmentmust be performed:• Before operating at elevations 1,000 ft (305 m) above or below

the last adjustment.• Before starting at a new job site.• After any burner maintenance has been performed.• If burner performance is in question for any reason.

Fuel Pressure Adjustment:4.7.1 Remove the bleeder valve. Install an adapter with British Parallel

threads to accept a 0–300 psi fuel pressure gauge. Do not use jointcompound (pipe dope) on the adapter.

4.7.2 Turn the operation mode switch to HEAT. The burner will begin a 15-second pre-purge. Monitor the fuel pressure during the pre-purge andmake adjustments using the fuel pressure adjusting screw.

4.7.3 Turn the adjusting screw (located on the side of the fuel pump)clockwise to increase fuel pressure or counterclockwise to decreasefuel pressure until it is stable.Once the fuel pressure is set, proceed with air setting and adjustment.

O2 Content:A Combustion Analyzer, Smoke True Spot Tester and common handtools will be required for O2 content sampling.

4.7.4 Follow the combustion analyzer manufacturer’s instructions for pre-purge and exhaust sampling.

wcghi_tx000684gb.fm 36

Cub 400/700 Maintenance

4.7.5 Sample the exhaust gas. Exhaust O2 content must be 3 to 4% for

optimum performance and minimum soot production. Several samplesshould be taken as the heater warms. The final sample should betaken just before the heater reaches 160°F.

Smoke Spot Sampling:4.7.6 Follow the smoke spot tester manufacturer’s instructions for accurate

exhaust sampling.4.7.7 Sample the burner exhaust for smoke. Smoke spot production must be

1 or less. Several samples should be taken as the heater warms. Thefinal sample should be taken just before the heater reaches 160°F.Note: Higher O2 percentage (excess air settings) lowers sootproduction but raises stack temperature and reduces efficiency. LowerO2 percentage (inadequate air settings) increases efficiency andlowers stack temperature but may cause soot build-up. A burneroptimized for clean and efficient operation will have O2 levels of 3 to4% and a smoke spot value of 1 or less.

4.7.8 Loosen the air damper locking screws enough to provide movementfor adjustment.

4.7.9 Turn the operation mode switch to HEAT. The burner will begin a 15-second pre-purge followed by the ignition sequence.

4.7.10 Once the burner lights, sample the exhaust as outlined above. Adjustthe air damper until combustion parameters fall within the aboveoutlined values.

4.7.11 Lock the air damper in place by tightening the locking screws.
