Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides comprehensive guidelines for the installation, operation, and maintenance of a natural draft oil heater or stove. It includes specifications, procedures, and recommendations to ensure efficient and safe operation.
Warnings and Disclosures: Key warnings include the necessity of following all installation and operating procedures, installing a flue, ensuring a fresh air inlet vent, and using specified components. The stove should not be operated unattended.
Installation Guidelines:
  • Location: Ensure sufficient space for safety clearances and use heat retardant materials. The flue stack should be straight, and on sailboats, the stove should face the bow or stern.
  • Mounting and Securing: Secure the stove with the supplied tie-down bar and appropriate fasteners.
Flue Stack: The flue stack must be the correct diameter and as straight as possible. A barometric damper is essential for optimal combustion and should be installed between 12” and 24” from the stove exhaust collar.
Fuel Supply: Fuel can be supplied via gravity feed or low-pressure pump, with pressure not exceeding 4 PSI. A fuel filter and shut-off valve are necessary.
Fuel Pump Installation: Use 12V DC pumps, include a 3 amp fuse, and ensure proper installation to maintain pressure. The pump should be in a ventilated area away from hot exhausts.
Fuel System Specifications and Recommendations: Emphasizes the use of a check valve to prevent backflow and recommends annual filter maintenance. A specific model with a replaceable stone element is suggested for the shut-off valve.
Oil Metering Valve Overflow: The overflow feature manages over-pressurization. The overflow line must prevent air locks, and a manual shut-off may be needed if connected back to the tank.
Fuel Variations and Calibration: Discusses the need for calibration due to fuel viscosity and quality variations, particularly with diesel.
Fuel Flow Measurement and Adjustment: Instructions for measuring and adjusting fuel flow to ensure optimal performance.
Oil Metering Valve Rebuild Instructions: Detailed instructions for rebuilding the valve, emphasizing proper assembly.
Valve Safety Features: Includes a high-temperature fuse to prevent overheating and warns against unattended operation.
Burner Assembly and Combustion Air: Adequate ventilation is essential, with recommendations for a permanently open fresh air inlet.
Specifications and Installation: A permanent 3” diameter fresh air vent and a minimum of 4 feet of exhaust stack are required. Proper insulation and spacing are necessary.
Lighting Instructions: Steps for engaging the pump, lighting the burner, and adjusting settings for efficient combustion.
Operating Tips: Adjust air and fuel mixture to maintain clean combustion and prevent carbon build-up.
Maintenance and Cleaning: Regular cleaning of the burner and annual maintenance are recommended.
Warnings: Do not light a hot or flooded burner and avoid using gasoline for lighting.
Additional Features: The stove can be equipped with a hot water coil for heating water.
Firebox and Cement Replacement Instructions: Detailed steps for replacing cement and ensuring the combustion chamber is airtight.
Cleaning Procedures: Instructions for cleaning fuel lines, combustion chamber, and cooktop.
Cooking Instructions: Preheat times and temperature control using the oven damper.
Troubleshooting: Solutions for common issues such as no fuel in burner, hard carbon, soot accumulation, and burner floods.
Warranty Information: Limited one-year warranty covering defects in workmanship and materials, excluding normal wear and misuse.

-2- Warnings and Disclosures - Follow all installation and operating procedures. - The oil stove requires an installed flue for correct operation. Do not attempt to operate the stove without the flue chimney installed correctly as required in this manual. - A permanently open fresh air inlet vent must be installed near the stove to provide air to the stove for combustion. - The fuel supply must have a manual shut-off at the fuel tank as well as a manual shut-off near the stove. - The fuel must be filtered to at least 10 microns and not exceed 4 PSI of pressure. - The fuel type stamped on the...

-4- Clearance Diagram Installation Guidelines Location The location of the stove must be large enough to provide safety clearances. Objects and materials closer to the stove than 6” must be lined with high density, heat retardant insulation and covered with metal (stainless steel, aluminum, etc.). Another alternative is using ceramic tiles. Particular care must be taken to protect the surfaces close to the cast iron top and first section of flue pipe. The install location should also take into account the length and configuration of the flue stack. It is generally preferable that the flue stack...

-5Ideally, the stove should face the bow or stern of your vessel, particularly on a sailboat. Fuel gravity feeds from the oil-metering valve into the burner. Should this valve drop below the level of the burner fuel will not flow uphill into the burner and the fire will go out. In a beam-facing sailboat installation, the oil metering valve may have to be relocated to the side of the stove. There are holes in the side panel to hold the repositioned valve bracket. If you have any doubt regarding the need for a valve bracket, please ask your dealer or email [email protected] Mounting and...

-6- Flue Stack The length and straightness of the flue stack are important to the efficient operation of the stove. The Flue stack must be the correct diameter. If elbows must be used, the elbows shall not be greater than a 45 degree angle. The first elbow should not be closer than 12” (28cm) to the stove. Allow for as much straight pipe as possible before the first elbow. The pipe will attach to the stove by squeezing the round pipe over the oval flue collar when installing. Pipe Diameter 5 inch dia. 12.7cm Recommended Length 6 ft 1.83m Minimum Length 4 ft 1.23m Hole Diameter 7 inch dia. 17.8cm...

-7The draft above the top of the fire will be aprox -.05 inches of water column, should you have a draft meter, however adjusting the damper as above should get you close enough. Dickinson can supply you with a stainless steel thru-deck fitting for your pipe installation. The thru-deck fitting includes a stainless steel dress ring for the interior of the cabin and a rubber (neoprene) gasket easy mounting. Depending on the contour or the angle of the cabin top, you may need to make a hardwood spacer block. One surface of the block would be a level plane to mate to the deck cap. The other would...

-8#20-000 FRD-2 3 PSI FUEL PUMP & #20-002 FRD-HD c/w REGULATOR FUEL PUMP • • • • • • • • • • These are 12 volt DC pumps. The factory spring pressure for the #20-000 FRD-2 pump is set at 3 PSI (max 6 ft. lift). The #20-002 FRD-HD pump has a stronger pressure spring that will draw the fuel higher (max 15 ft. lift) but will need the regulator to adjust the pressure down to 3 PSI before the fuel goes to the oil metering valve. You must use a fuel oil filter in your installation before the pump to keep debri from plugging up the 3 check valves inside the pump. When the oil metering valve (carburetor)...

-8Ainstalled as per diagram. Place the check valve as shown in the diagram on top of the heavier replacement spring, and the spring on top of the pump plunger and push it back into the pump body holding it in with a finger. Note the magnetic part of the plunger is on the opposite end of the spring. Replace the lid with the gasket on by lowering your finger on to the red O ring sleeve without the plunger falling out ( the plunger is about 2” long so you have room to lower your finger out of the way). The red O ring sleeve will fit inside the pump tube and the black O ring will fit over the outside...

-8B- #20-002 FRD-HD c/w REGULATOR We recommend using an elbow fitting on the fuel inlet. When priming this pump hold down the knob of the pressure regulator to prime the fuel lines and take out the air then turn the dial to the lowest setting on the regulator and increase pressure 1 increment at a time until the pump is just delivering a small amount of fuel as the heater/stove only requires a very small amount .

-9Use 3/8" (9.52 mm) copper fuel line for the first 2-3 ft closest to the heater/stove. Approved hose can be used for the remainder of the installation. DO NOT USE A PRESSURIZED FUEL TANK. When a low pressure fuel delivery pump is used (less than 4 psi) a fuel line must be plumbed directly from the main fuel tank or tee in at the tank (not from the engine supply line or engine filter). Use a check valve in the stove fuel line to stop the engine from pulling back the fuel and starving the stove. The fuel inlet is a 3/8" flare fitting. To keep the oil metering valve clean and trouble free install...
