UNUSUAL ENVIRONMENT/WEATHER.

Operation in Extreme Heat.
CAUTION
Gaskets and seals are more likely to leak when system operating temperatures are high. Transfer oil
level should be checked more often during periods of extreme heat to prevent damage to Heater
system components. Checks for leaks around gaskets, seals, and fittings should also be made
more often.
(1)
Check transfer oil level (page 3-12) often.
(2)
Monitor system for temperature above 475'F (246°C).
