¢Ø KEROSENE (1-K ONLY)

It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to the operation of this heater that you use the proper grade of kerosene. The proper grade of kerosene is identified as 1-K Kerosene. DO NOT OPERATE THIS HEATER

WITH ANY FUEL OTHER THAN 1-K KEROSENE!1-K Kerosene

 

has been refined to virtually eliminate contaminants such as sulphur,

 

which can cause a rotten egg odor during operation of the heater.

Fig.9

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 water-clear 1-K kerosene.

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 explosion or uncontrolled flames.

The best way to purchase kerosene is in a pre-packaged, metal or plastic, blue colored container.

The second choice would be to buy it from a dealer who stores it in a 55 gallon drum. The third choice is to buy kerosene from a dealer who stores it in a large underground (or above ground) tank. Kerosene that is contaminated with even a small amount of water will prevent a kerosene heater from functioning properly. As you move from the first choice in purchasing kerosene (pre-packaged container) to the third choice (large storage tank), the likelihood of water being present from condensation increases.

If you purchase kerosene in bulk, know your dealer.
