Fueling The Heater:
Kerosene (K-1)
For optimal performance of this heater, it is
strongly suggested that K-1 kerosene be used. K-1
kerosene has been refined to virtually eliminate
contaminants, such as sulfur, which can cause
a rotten egg odor during the operation of the
heater. Using diesel fuel can cause excess soot
production. Do not use Bio-Diesel as this fuel will
damage your heater's seals and filter.
- CSA certified for use with K-1 kerosene, no. 1 &
no. 2 diesel, JP8/Jet A Fuel, no. 1 and no. 2 fuel
oil.
DANGER
OR OPERATING. FIRE OR EXPLOSION
COULD RESULT.
CAUTION
FILL THE TANK OUTDOORS. BE SURE THAT
THE HEATER IS ON LEVEL GROUND WHEN
FUELING, AND NEVER OVERFILL THE
TANK.
WARNING
DO NOT use any fuel that is not approved above.
- NEVER use fuel such as, benzene, alcohol, white
glass, camp stove fuel, paint thinners, or other oil
compounds in this heater. THESE ARE VOLATILE
FUELS THAT CAN CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
- NEVER store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene
should be stored in a well ventilated area outside
the living area.
- NEVER store kerosene in direct sunlight or near a
source of heat.
- NEVER use kerosene that has been stored from one
season to the next. Kerosene deteriorates over time.

DANGER
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD
TO DEATH!
- Risk of indoor air pollution and Carbon Monoxide
Poisoning. Use heater only in well ventilated
areas.
- Refer to Safety Information on page 3 for
information about Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.
- ALWAYS provide a fresh air opening in the heated
space of at least three square feet (2,800 sq. cm) for
each 100,000 Btu / Hr. (29 kW) of heater output.
Provide a larger opening if more heaters are being
used.
