CAUTION : DO NOT OPERATE heater without support frame assembled to tank.
NOTE : Heater should be inspected before each use, and at least annually by a qualified service person.
4. FUEL SELECTION
1. All models can use 7 different fuels: K1 Kerosene, #1 Fuel Oil, #1, Diesel, #2 Fuel Oil, #2 Diesel, Jet A, JP-8
2. K1 Kerosene is recommended for optimal combustion and performance, and for less maintenance. K1 is also
the optimal fuel choice in extremely low temperatures of 15°F or less, as its pour-point/"gel-point" varies
3. Jet A and JP-8 are also excellent choices for clean combustion, reduced maintenance, and temperatures below
15°F, but they are rarely found outside of the aviation industry or the military.
4. #1 Fuel Oil, #1 Diesel, #2 Fuel Oil, #2 Diesel are often selected, as they are readily available. However, the
following:
a. #1 Diesel and #1 Fuel Oil will have some degree of increased smoke/soot during ignition, increased smell,
and increased regular cleaning/maintenance.
use of #2 fuels will result in a little more smoke/soot during ignition, a greater increase in smell, and will
require more regular cleaning/maintenance than #1 fuels.
c. At temperatures lower than 15°F, most diesel/fuel oil blends will become more viscous (start to gel) as
the diesel falls below its pour point (starts to "gel"), and may pose a challenge igniting the heater and with
continuous operation of the heater. There are troubleshooting steps for this situation, but selecting K1 (or
JP-8/Jet A) is recommended when operating below 15°F. The colder the temperatures the more likely you
could problems you will experience diesel gelling.
temperature drops. At 32°F, the wax in liquid form will crystallize and leave the fuel clouded; this can start
correct which can cause white smoke and performance problems.
KEROSENE SHOULD ONLY BE STORED IN A BLUE CONTAINER THAT IS CLEARLY
MARKED "KEROSENE". NEVER STORE KEROSENE IN A RED CONTAINER.
Red containers are associated with gasoline.
NEVER
store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene should be stored in a well ventilated place outside the
living area.
NEVER
use any fuel other than 1-K kerosene (#1/#2 diesel/fuel oil, JET A or JP-8 fuels are acceptable substitutes)
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 an explosion or uncontrolled
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.
