10. Installation and commissioning

• Check that the scope of delivery of your oil heating unit is com-
plete. If an accessory part is missing, please contact the Trotec
customer service or the specialist dealer from whom you pur-
chased the device.
• Check the oil heating unit and its connection parts for possible
damages.
• Mount the support/the handle and the wheels to the oil heating
unit. Please refer to the supplied assembly instruction manual
for further information. Please use the supplied assembly tools.
• Make sure to comply with the requirements described in the
chapter "Installation conditions".
• Fill the heating oil into the tank with the device switched off and
cooled down.
• Inspect the device prior to commissioning and check it regularly
for its proper condition during operation.
• Make sure that the characteristics of the mains supply corre-
spond to those indicated on the rating plate.
• Each time before switching on the device, make sure that the fan
can move freely before plugging the power plug into the mains
socket.
• Connect the power supply cable to a properly secured mains
socket (230 V / 50 Hz / 10 A). On construction sites, a residual
current circuit breaker must be connected upstream of the mains
socket according to VDE 0100/0105.
The oil heating unit is now ready for operation. Use the device according
to the functions described in chapter 11 "Functions and operation".

11. Functions and operation

The device may only be used by persons who have been trained in op-
erating the device.

Switching on the oil heating unit

The oil heating unit features two operating modes:
1. Manual mode
The generator can operate in manual mode.
• Switch the device on by setting the selector switch to the position
"ON" (continuous operation).
2. Automatic mode
The oil heating unit can only operate in automatic mode if a control device
(optional) is connected to it, e.g. a thermostat. The thermostat is to be
connected to the thermostat socket.
• Switch the device on by setting the selector switch to the position
"ON" + " (thermostat operation).
If the start-up cycle has been completed, the electronic control unit will
confirm that the start-up of the device is complete by activating a red
flashing light on the reset button.

Switching off the oil heating unit

• Switch the device off by setting the selector switch to the posi-
tion "0".
• If you are using a thermostat, switch the device off via the set-
tings of the control device (e.g. by setting the thermostat to a low
temperature).
The flame is extinguished and the fan will continue running for approx.
90 seconds in order to cool down the burner.
Damage to the device due to overheating!
Do not switch off the device by pulling out the power
cord. This may cause the device to overheat.
Switch the device off properly. Only disconnect the power
plug if the fan motor has come to a complete standstill.
• Wait until the automatic aftercooling has been completed.
• Secure the device against being accidentally switched on again
by pulling out the power cord.

Resuming operation after a failure

During the initial commissioning of the device or after the heating oil
circuit has been completely emptied, the inflow of heating oil to the noz-
zle may be insufficient. This will cause the flame control system to be
activated and the device will be blocked.
• Wait for approx. 1 minute.
• Press and hold the reset button for at least 5 seconds.
• Switch on the device.
If the device is still not starting up:
• Make sure that there is enough heating oil in the tank.
• Press the reset button.
In order to determine the cause of the fault:
• see the chapters "Safety equipment" and "Troubleshooting"

Safety equipment

The oil heating unit features an electronic flame and maximum tem-
perature monitoring system that uses a photoelectric cell and a safety
thermostat.
The electronic control unit controls the start-up, shutdown and safety
shutdown times in the event of malfunctions. The control unit is equipped
with a reset button whose colour (operation indicator) is depending on
the operating mode:
• switched off if the device is in pause or standby mode and ex-
pecting the heating demand
• continuous green light for normal operation of the device
• continuous red light for safety shutdown of the device
• flashing orange light if the operation is interrupted due to consid-
erable mains fluctuations (T < 175 V or T > 265 V); the operation
is automatically resumed if the voltage has stabilised in the range
of 190 V to 250 V
If the device has triggered the safety shutdown:
• Press and hold down the reset button for 3 seconds in order to
resume operation.
