CAUTION
Hold the sheet metal securely while curl-
ing it to prevent it from slipping and causing
severe cuts.
6. Assemble the smoke-pipe sections starting with
the section of pipe having the damper installed. Place
the smooth female end of the pipe over the steel collar
on the heater top.
b. From the inside, insert a split rivet through
each of the three holes in the smoke-pipe sections.
Spread the tines of the rivet, and hammer them flat.
NOTE
The damper is not required in the smoke
pipe when it is burning liquid fuel.
c. In one section of the smoke pipe, insert the
damper. Punch a hole through the pipe at a position half
the length of the pipe. Hold the damper in place inside
the pipe, and thread the damper shaft through the holes
locking the curved shank of the damper shaft into the
center slot of the damper. When they are locked together
properly, the damper and operating handle are parallel.
NOTE
When conditions permit, use six lengths of
pipe extended straight up. Elbows and horizon-
tal pipes reduce the draft and cut down the heat
output.
7. Install the spark arrester on one pipe section
above the heater or on top of the smoke pipe outside of
the shelter.
To assemble and set up the Type II space heater,
refer to figure 2-5 and proceed as follows:
1. Place the adapter ring on the heater base.
