One more thing on servicing my Oasis - I’m going to watch the hour meter and take a look at the general condition of the burn box and specifically the fuel block after about 25 hours of use and then every 25 hours after that to determine my new maintenance interval.
I wont let it get as dirty as it was and if that is happening more quickly than it should I’ll chase down that issue as well. But regardless, my maintenance interval will be based on the hour meter and not the calendar and it will be triggered by the amount of time it takes to start looking like its in need, not a published spec.
I’ll report my findings here when I make this determination for anyone interested. I was surprised to see how dirty it was but that was after at least 100 hours (probably more) and 2 years. Unfortunately I havent been able to find any notation of the hours on the unit when I bought it. But that doesn't matter now - what’s important is just keeping it in good shape and reliable.
