Page 16: Operation
operation Operation fUElING THE HEATER 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 fuel tank. It is always a good idea to fire the heater outdoors for the fist time. This will allow any oils used in the manufacturing process to be burned off in a safe environment. This initial burn should last at least 10 minutes. KEROSENE (1-K) For optimal performance of this heater, it is strongly suggested that #1-K kerosene be used. #1-K kerosene has been refined to virtually eliminate contaminants, such as sulfur, which can cause a rotten egg odor during the operation of the heater. However, #1, #2 (fuel oil), JP-8 or Jet A fuel oil may also be used if #1-K kerosene is not available. Be advised that these fuels do not burn as clean as #1-K kerosene, and care should be taken to provide more fresh air ventilation to accommodate any added contaminants that may be added to the heated space. NOTICE Kerosene should only be stored in a blue container that is clearly marked “kerosene”. Never store kerosene in a red container. Red is as- sociated with gasoline. • NEVER store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene should be stored in a well ventilated area outside the living area. • NEVER use fuel such as gasoline, 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 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. • ... -
