SAFETY TIPS
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR HEATER, PLEASE review these safety tips:
WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSION
1. Never use any fuel other than clean kerosene (paraffin).
Never use gasoline (petrol). Use of gasoline (petrol) can lead to uncontrollable
flames resulting in destructive fire. Even kerosene (paraffin) contaminated
with small amounts of gasoline (petrol), or similarly volatile materials, can be
hazardous. Never use a can for kerosene (paraffin) that has previously been
used for gasoline (petrol), paint thinner, methylated spirit, or solvents.
2. Never refill heater fuel tank when heater is operating or still hot. To do so may
cause a “flash back“ of flame to the fuel container, resulting in injury to
yourself and your property.
3. Never use heater in areas where flammable vapors or gases may be present.
Especially avoid use of heater where gasoline (petrol), naphtha, acetone or
other volatile solvents are in the air, or whose containers are open. Such
vapors could be ignited by the heater, resulting in fire and/or explosion.
4. Never fill heater fuel tank in living space. Fill heater tank outdoors. Never
overfill your heater. Always replace heater tank cap securely after refueling.
Spillage of kerosene (paraffin) produces strong odor which is hard to remove.
Spillage on carpet can be ignited if match or some other ignition source
contacts it.
5. Never store or transport kerosene (paraffin) in other than a metal or plastic
container that is (1) acceptable for kerosene (paraffin), (2) non-red in color,
and (3) clearly marked, “KEROSENE (PARAFFIN)”. Never store kerosene
(paraffin) in the living space. Picking up a gasoline (petrol) can by mistake
when fueling is a major cause of heater fires.
Store the kerosene (paraffin) out of reach of children in a safe container,
marked “KEROSENE” (“PARAFFIN”).
WARNING
RlSK OF BURNS OR FIRE
1. Observe the heater carefully for 15-20 minutes after start-up. Problems of
improper adjustment of wick height or improperly seated heat chamber
should become evident during this warm up period.
NOTE: Carefully follow the instructions for lighting and adjusting the flame.
2. Due to high surface temperatures, keep away from children, furniture and
clothing.
