1. UNPACKING
REMOVE THE HEATER AND ALL PACKING
MATERIALS FROM THE BOX.( Fig. 2 )
NOTE : Save the shipping carton and packing materials
for future storage.
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 diesel/fuel oil, JET A or JP-8 fuels 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. #2 diesel/fuel oil heavier than 1-K kerosene in extreme cold temperatures without nontoxic anti-icer
additives will not ignite properly. When diesel fuel is used for this heater, small amount of smoke may occur at
the ignition and turn off time.
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 flames.
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.
2. ASSEMBLY
Tools Required
• Medium Phillips Screwdriver.
1. Remove the pre-assembled Bolts on the shell
and shell ring.
2. Align the holes in the shell with two mounting
holes on the handle as shown in Figure3.
3. Secure handle with Bolts.
4. Align the holes in the shell ring with two
mounting holes on the heat shield as shown in
Figure 3.
5. Secure heat shield with Bolts.
CAUTION : DO NOT operate heater without heat
shield assembled to the heater.
The heat shield must be attached to prevent any
damage, discoloration, or deformation to the floor.
NOTE : Heater should be inspected before each use, and at least annually by a qualified service person.
