I have an All Pro 150000 btu kerosene / diesel torpedo heater. It runs for a few minutes and then starts sputtering, shooting flames and smoke. What causes this problem?

First thing is to download the service manual.

http://www.desaparts.com/service_manuals.html

You need to make sure the filters are clean and that you are getting the proper air pump pressure.

If the units starts up and runs good and slowly goes out it will normally be due to a lack of fuel getting to the nozzle. When there is not enough fuel being delivered to the nozzle from either a clogged fuel filter of dirty air pump output filter the unit will slowly shut down from lack of fuel.

If the unit shuts down while it is running properly and the nose come is orange then you probably have a problem with a photocell or the flame out control.

If you have other questions you can contact our service department at 269-685-4125 at extension 224

My all pro 150000 btu heater sputters, shoots flames and smoke. what causes that?

The first thing to check would be the fuel filter from the tank to the nozzle.

Then check the input and output filters on the back of the pump housing.

Here is a link to a service manual.

Where are the filters on a Handy master forced air heater- our smells very bad

Pretty much every kerosene heater I've seen has the filters in the same place. You have to take the cover off, then locate the pump at the back of the motor. Take 2 or 4 screws out of the pump to remove the pump cover, and you'll see the filters in there.

There are some kind of generic directions here: http://www.desatech.com/techDocs/Kerosene%20Heater%20Filter%20Replacement.pdf

I'm sure they apply to your heater too.

Be careful putting it back together, it's reeeeally easy to crack the plastic pump by overtightening the screws, and it will never work right again if you do.

Should the an on my master 150000 btu be hard to spin . My wont run all of a sudden. It keeps tripping the reset button aftera humming sound for a few seconds

the fan should turn freely. those fans have a tendancy to dry out and will trip the reset. if the fan isn't shot completely, try oiling it and working the blades until they loosen up. most of the fans used on these units are not bearing type but brass collars which dry out. if they don't loosen up, the fan is probably too far gone. usually the humming indicates the motor trying to turn the rotor but can't turn the dry rotor shaft or a bent blade stuck on something. good luck jay

Take air preassure from an air hose to turn the fan blades to loosen everything up. Time for afull service, like change the vanes in the pump, 3- filters fuel--2 air.

Kerosene Portable Forced Air heater comes on, runs awhile

Here is a link to your owner's manual... http://12.153.20.74/manuals/123919-01A.PDF. Look on page 8 and 10. It could be several things. It could only be a dirty fuel filter or the pump pressure may just need adjustment. If you need a part you can contact Master Parts at 800-466-1446 or you can find them on-line at www.masterparts.net. I hope this helps!

common mistake like sharpening your own lawnmower blade, many will install the blade showing the shinny new edge just ground. That means the blade is on upside down, and therefore it will not cut for scheisse.
Your hose to the nozzle adapter from the back of the motor (air), need to be closest to the fitting nearest the combustion chamber. The fuel line up from the tank will be closest to the fan. You mix em up and it'll never run.
A regular service should include a nozzle replacement. at the rear of the nozzle stem is a squared rubber seal, that should also be replaced if it does not come with nozzle itself.
