FUEL GUIDE
The RCA-2800 is designed for use with high-quality kerosene (paraffin). Use of low-quality kerosene
(paraffin) will cause wick performance to drop, leading to “Iow flame” and “odor problem” conditions.
The kerosene (paraffin) commonly known as “industrial kerosene (paraffin)” is not suitable for your heater.
Purchase only kerosene (paraffin) in non-red cans reserved exclusively for kerosene (paraffin) and marked
accordingly with the word “KEROSENE (PARAFFIN)”. Always store your kerosene (paraffin) in a separate
area from where you store gasoline (petrol) for your power equipment, to avoid accidental use of gasoline
(petrol) in your heater.
What to Buy...
ALWAYS: Crystal clear, high quality KEROSENE (PARAFFIN).
ALWAYS: Kerosene (paraffin) free of contaminants, water or cloudiness.
NEVER:
Gasoline (petrol), alcohol, white gas, camp stove fuel or additives.
NEVER: Yellow or sour-smelling fuel.
How to Use lt...
ALWAYS: Fill heater away from living quarters when heater is cool; use siphon.
ALWAYS: Check wick frequently for tar build-up. (Rapid, heavy build-up may
indicate poor quality or deteriorated fuel.)
ALWAYS: Watch fuel gauge to avoid over-filling heater.
How to Store lt...
ALWAYS: ln a clean container, clearly marked KEROSENE (PARAFFIN).
ALWAYS: Store away from direct sunlight, heat sources or extreme temperature
changes.
NEVER: ln a glass container, or one that has been used for other fuels.
NEVER: For longer than 6 months. (Begin each heating season with fresh
kerosene (paraffin); discard at the end of the season.)
NEVER: Accidental introduction of water into fuel containers.
Why lt is lmportant...
Pure, clean kerosene (paraffin) is essential for safe and efficient heater operation.
Poor quality or contaminated kerosene (paraffin) can cause:
● Low flame
● Excess tar deposits on the wick
● Reduced wick life
● Odor, smoke
● Difficulty in igniting or extinguishing flame
Use of a highly volatile flammable fuel such as gasoline (petrol) can produce
uncontrollable flames, creating a severe fire hazard.
CAUTlON
Flames observed emerging from the heater body are a clear indication that fuel is dangerously
contaminated with gasoline (petrol) or other highly flammable material. If this occurs,
a. Never attempt to move the heater.
b. Call the Fire Department.
c. Use only a class “B” fire extinguisher.
d. Never throw water directly on a burning heater.
