FUEL GUIDE
A WARNING:
USE ONLY WATER CLEAR N0.1-K KEROSENE (ASTM 1-K) OR SYNTHETIC FUELS FOR USE WITH
KEROSENE-FIRED PORT ABLE HEATERS. DO NOT USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE FUELS THAT
WILL DANGEROUSLY INCREASE THE RISK OF FIRE.
DO NOT USE KEROSENE OR SYNTHETIC FUEL THAT IS DEGENERATED, CONTAMINATED BY IMPURITIES,
OR CONTAINS WATER IN YOUR HEATER.
Degenerated or contaminated kerosene or synthetic fuel refers to;
• Fuel that has been carried over from the previous season.
• Fuel that has been stored in the sun for a long period of time.
• Fuel that has been stored with its container cover left open for a long period of time.
• Fuel that is contaminated by water, dust, oil other than kerosene or synthetic fuel, even if only
by a very small quantity.
• Degenerated or contaminated kerosene or synthetic fuel is yellowish in color or smells like acid.
If your heater is fueled by degenerated or contaminated fuel:
• The wick rapidly accumulate large amounts of tar.
• The wick won't move up and down easily, and the heater cannot be ignited or extinguished
readily;
• The burner chimney won't heat to redness satisfactorily, resulting in a decrease in heat output;
• The heater will give out an offensive smell;
• Water contaminated fuel will restrict the fuel flow through the wick and cause the flame to
extinguish;
• The use of highly volatile fuels, such as gasoline and paint thinner, may result uncontrollable fire;
What to do should the fuel tank be filled with degenerated or contaminated fuel:
• Drain degenerated or contaminated fuel out of the fuel tank completely.
• Wash the fuel tank in clean 1-K kerosene or synthetic fuel two or three times.
• Repair or replace the wick, following the instructions given on page 9.
• If repair does no good, replace the wick with a new one.
