NEVER LEAVE THE HEATER
UNATTENDED WHILE BURNING!
WICK ASSEMBLY- Check at least once a month!!
The burner assembly sits on top of the wick guide. Over time, tar deposits can
accumulate on the wick guide, and this can prevent the burner assembly from
seating properly. This can result in poor combustion, smoke, odor, etc.. To prevent
this from happening, tar deposits on the wick guide can be removed as follows:
Making sure that the heater is both cool and turned off, lower the wick to the "off" position.
Remove the batteries (located at the rear of the heater).
Remove the 2 cabinet screws. Lift off the cabinet and grill assembly as shown in
illustration. (Fig.A)
Using the wick adjuster knob, raise the top of the wick until it is even with the top
of the wick guide. Using a flat-edge screwdriver, scrape off the tar deposits.
Be careful not to allow any of the tar deposits to drop into the grooves of the wick
guide. A small vacuum cleaner can be used to remove the tar deposits that have
been scraped off. (Fig.B)
Reassemble the heater and replace the batteries.
WICK REPLACEMENT
The wick in your heater needs replacing if, after repeated cleanings, any of the following conditions still exist: slow to light,
hard movement of the wick adjuster knob, kerosene odor while burning, low heat output, slow warm up, damaged wick.
Use only a genuine replacement wick.

SHOOTING GUIDE", see page 14, which outlines conditions under which the wick should be replaced.

model heater. You could damage the heater and create a potential fire hazard.
