FUELING
1. lnsert the straight tube of the manual fuel siphon into the kerosene (paraffin)
container. Remove the fuel tank cap on the heater, and insert the siphon’s flexible
hose into the fuel tank opening.
2. Turn the air vent knob on the top of the siphon clockwise to close the air vent.
3. To start the flow of kerosene (paraffin), squeeze the bulb of the siphon vigorously
six or seven times. Once the flow begins, it is no longer necessary to squeeze the
bulb. To avoid overfilling the tank, watch the fuel gauge. As the indicator enters the
red zone, stop the flow by turning the air vent knob counterclockwise.
NOTE: Be especially careful to avoid overfilling the tank with very cold kerosene
(paraffin); otherwise overflow might occur when the fuel warms up.
4. Remove the siphon carefully, allowing the excess kerosene (paraffin) to drain from
the tube back into container. Replace the fuel tank cap and tighten it securely. Be
sure to wipe away any spilled kerosene (paraffin) from tank or other heater parts.
CHECK BEFORE LIGHTING
1. LOCATE YOUR HEATER AWAY FROM WALLS AND AVOID DRAFTS
Allow at least one (1) m of clearance between the heater and walls, curtains, shelving or other combustible
materials. DO NOT operate your heater in drafty areas or locations where opening doors may create gusts of air.
Drafts or strong air currents may make flame unstable and affect heater performance.
2. LEVEL THE HEATER
The heater should be operated on a firm, Ievel floor.
NOTE: lf your heater is not level, change Iocations. DO NOT attempt to prop it up
with books or other objects. An unlevel heater may burn with an uneven flame.
3. CHECK THE WICK LIFE EXTENDER
When you first use your new heater or after replacing the wick, check if the WICK
LIFE EXTENDER is on position 1. If not, readjust the wick life extender mechanism
to position 1 by following the instructions on page 9, ADJUSTMENT OF WICK
HEIGHT WITH WICK LIFE EXTENDER.
4. ENGAGE THE AUTOMATIC EXTINGUISHER
The automatic extinguisher is engaged automatically by turning the wick adjuster
knob clockwise. Check the operation of the automatic extinguisher before lighting
your heater. After turning the wick adjuster knob clockwise until it stops, turn the
manual shutoff counterclockwise to be sure the wick moves smoothly down.
