Fueling The Heater:
Kerosene (K-1)
For optimal performance of this heater, it is strongly
suggested that K-1 kerosene be used. 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
OR OPERATING. FIRE OR EXPLOSION
COULD RESULT.
CAUTION
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 any fuel that is not approved above.
- NEVER use fuel such as, benzene, alcohol, white glass,
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 1 for information
about Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.
- ALWAYS provide a fresh air opening in the heated space
of at least three square feet (2,800 sq. cm) for each
100,00 Btu / Hr. (29 kW) of heater output. Provide a larger
opening if more heaters are being used.
