ORIGO
1500 and 3000 Alcohol Stoves
This is a reproduction of the English portion of the instructions that came with my stove in
1987.
INSTRUCTIONS
ORIGO 1500 and 3000 are non-pressurized alcohol stoves with the fuel absorbed in a non-
flammable pulp. They have no valves to develop leaks, or other components in need of
regular service. This makes ORIGO 1500 and 3000 safe and easy to maintain.
As always - when working with a naked flame - certain precautions are required. So, read
the following simple instructions carefully before using your new ORIGO 1500 and 3000
stove.
If an accident should ever occur, remember that burning alcohol can be extinguished with
water.
LOCATION OF YOUR NEW ORIGO 1500 AND 3000
Your stove should be located in a well-ventilated space. Avoid excessive draft. If your
ORIGO 1500 and 3000 is used in an open cockpit, it should be placed so that maximum
protection against the wind is obtained. Mount the stove as far away from combustible
materials as possible. Preferably mount the stove in a metal-lined space.

TO FILL, OPEN THE STOVE TOP

Turn the knobs to 0 position, burner openings fully covered. Pull the forward lower edge of
the stove top slightly forward, while simultaneously pressing the catch PRESS (photo 1).
Tank must not be filled near an open flame or a hot object. The stove top can only be
opened when the burner openings are completely covered by the regulating plates. Turn
the regulator knobs clockwise as far as they go, and the flames are extinguished. Lift out
tank unit. It is essential that not only has the flame been completely extinguished, but that
there is no heat grow on burner top.
