OPERATION

FUELING THE HEATER:
Kerosene (K-1)
For optimal performance of this heater, it is strongly suggested
that K-1 kerosene be used, especially in temperatures lower
than 26°F (-3°C). K-1 kerosene has been refined to virtually
eliminate contaminants, such as sulfur, which can cause a
rotten egg odor during the operation of the heater. Using
diesel fuel can cause excess soot production. Do not use Bio-
Diesel as this fuel will damage your heater's seals and filter.
- CSA certified for use with K-1 kerosene, no. 1 & no. 2 diesel,
JP8/Jet A Fuel, no. 1 and no. 2 fuel oil.
DANGER:
!
NEVER REFUEL THIS HEATER WHILE IT
IS HOT OR OPERATING. FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD
RESULT.
CAUTION:
!
NEVER FILL THE FUEL TANK INDOORS.
ALWAYS FILL THE TANK OUTDOORS. BE SURE THAT THE
HEATER IS ON LEVEL GROUND WHEN FUELING, AND
NEVER OVERFILL THE TANK.
WARNING:
!
DO NOT USE GASOLINE OR
CRANKCASE DRAININGS.
DO NOT use any fuel that is not approved above.
- NEVER use fuel such as, benzene, alcohol, white gas, camp
stove fuel, paint thinners, or other oil compounds in this
heater. THESE ARE VOLATILE FUELS THAT CAN CAUSE A FIRE
OR EXPLOSION.
- NEVER store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene should be
stored in a well ventilated area outside the living area.
- NEVER store kerosene in direct sunlight or near a source of
heat.
- NEVER use kerosene that has been stored from one season to
the next. Kerosene deteriorates over time. OLD KEROSENE WILL
NOT BURN PROPERLY IN THIS HEATER.
NOTE: Kerosene should only be stored in a blue
container that is clearly marked "Kerosene." Never store
kerosene in a red container. Red is associated with
gasoline.
VENTILATION:
- Risk of indoor air pollution and carbon monoxide poisoning.
Use heater only in well ventilated areas.
- Refer to Safety Information on Page 3 for information about
carbon monoxide poisoning.
DANGER:
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY
LEAD TO DEATH!
- Always provide a fresh air opening in the heated space of at
least three square feet (2,800 sq. cm.) for each 100,000 BTU/
Hr. (29 kW) of heater output. Provide a larger opening if more
heaters are being used.

STARTING THE HEATER: (IGNITION)
1. Fill the tank with kerosene or other approved fuel until
needle on fuel gauge points to F. Do not overfill.
2. Replace fuel cap and tighten firmly.
3. Connect the heater to a three prong
(grounded) power source. You must use a three prong
(grounded) extension cord that is at least 6 feet long
and is a minimum of 14 AWG rating.
4. Turn thermostat control knob to desired temperature
setting. The thermostat set range is from 40 ºF to 110 ºF.
5. Move power switch to "On" position. The power
indicator light and room temperature display will
illuminate and heater will ignite.
NOTE: 80T-KFA models do not have a room
temperature display feature.
The room temperature display will indicate the following:
- When the temperature is less than 0ºF the display says LO.
- When the temperature is more that 99ºF the display says HI.
- Between 0°F and 99°F the display shows actual temperature.
STOPPING / RESTARTING HEATER:
- To stop the heater, move the power switch to the OFF
position and unplug the power cord.
- To restart the heater; wait 10 seconds and follow ignition
steps.
TIP: If the heater does not ignite, the thermostat
may be set too low. Turn the control knob to a higher
setting until the heater ignites. If the heater does not
ignite; move switch to OFF position, check steps 1-3
above and then move switch to ON position.
LONG TERM STORAGE:
Model 80T-KFA:
1. Use an approved siphon to drain fuel through the fuel
cap opening.
Models 140T-KFA or 215T-KFA:
1. Drain fuel through the drain bolt in the bottom of the
fuel tank.
2. To remove the drain bolt, unscrew counterclockwise.
3. Using a small amount of kerosene, rinse and swirl the
kerosene inside of the fuel tank, empty the tank fully.
4. To replace the drain bolt, push the drain head fully into
the drain hole and screw clockwise.
IMPORTANT: Never store leftover kerosene between seasons.
Using old fuel can damage heater.
