SECTION C:
FUEL GUIDE
The Laser 73 is designed for use with clear paraffin only. Use of low-quality paraffin will cause burner
performance to drop, leading to abnormal combustion and reduced heater life.
Purchase only paraffin in non-red cans reserved exclusively for paraffin and marked accordingly with the
word "PARAFFIN". Always store your paraffin in a separate area from where you store gasoline for your
power equipment to avoid accidental use of gasoline in your heater.
What to Buy . . .
ALWAYS :
Clear Paraffin.
ALWAYS :
Paraffin free of contaminants, water or cloudiness.
NEVER :
Gasoline, alcohol, white gas, camp stove fuel or additives.
NEVER :
Yellow or sour-smelling fuel.
How to Store It . . .
ALWAYS :
Store in a clean container, non-red in color, clearly marked
PARAFFIN.
ALWAYS :
Store away from direct sunlight, heat sources or extreme
temperature changes.
NEVER :
In a glass container, or one that has been used for other fuels.
NEVER :
For longer than six months. Begin each heating season with
fresh paraffin; discard at the end of season.
NEVER :
In the living space.
Why It is Important . . .
Pure, clean paraffin is essential for safe and efficient heater operation. Poor
quality or contaminated paraffin 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.
