Fuel gauge
1. Open the fuel tank lid on the top of heater cabinet and lift out the removable fuel
tank. Turn the removable tank upside down and remove the fuel tank cap.
2. Insert the straight tube of the manual siphon into the kerosene container. Insert
the siphon’s flexible hose into the removable fuel tank opening.
3. Turn the air vent knob on the top of the siphon clockwise to close the vent. Start
the flow of kerosene by squeezing the bulb of the siphon vigorously six or seven
times. Once flow begins, it is no longer necessary to squeeze the bulb.
4. Watch the fuel gauge on the removable tank to avoid overfilling. When it shows
half, stop flow by turning the air vent knob counterclockwise.
NOTE: Be careful to avoid overfilling the tank, especially with very cold kerosene.
Overflow might occur due to expansion when the fuel warms up.
5. Remove the siphon carefully, allowing excess kerosene to drain from the tube back into the container. Replace
fuel tank cap and tighten it securely. Be sure to wipe away any spilled kerosene from tank and other heater parts.
6. After making sure fuel tank cap is tightly fastened, invert tank and replace into heater body.
