FUEL GUIDE
The Toyostove Laser 60AT is designed for use with clear or red dyed ASTM D3699 1-K Kerosene. Use of low-
quality kerosene will cause burner performance to drop, leading to abnormal combustion and reduced
heater life.
Purchase only ASTM D3699 1-K kerosene in non-red cans reserved exclusively for kerosene and marked
accordingly with the word "KEROSENE". Always store your kerosene in a separate area from where you
store gasoline for your power equipment to avoid accidental use of gasoline in your heater.

Why It is Important . . .
Pure, clean kerosene is essential for safe and efficient heater operation. Poor
quality or contaminated kerosene can cause:
¡Excess tar deposits on burner and flue pipe
¡Incomplete combustion
¡Reduced heater life
Use of a highly volatile flammable fuel such as gasoline can produce
uncontrollable flames, creating a severe fire hazard.
