CHECK BEFORE LIGHTING

1. LEVEL THE HEATER

The heater should be operated on a firm, level floor.

NOTE: If your heater is not level, change locations.

Do not prop it with books or other objects.

2. ENGAGE THE AUTOMATIC EXTINGUISHER

The automatic extinguisher is engaged automatically by turning

the wick adjuster knob clockwise.

NOTE: When it is difficult to engage the automatic extinguisher, turn the wick adjuster knob

counterclockwise once until it stops. And then turn the wick adjuster knob clockwise.

LIGHTING

NOTE: When you first use your new heater, ignite it out of the living area of your house, either in

a garage or an area outside protected from strong drafts. Burn it for about 15 minutes to

remove all of the protective oil present on the burner parts. If this 15 minutes “burn-in” is

done inside, some objectionable odor will be observed. This procedure is necessary ONLY

THE FIRST TIME you ignite your heater.

NOTE: If you have fueled your heater for the first time, or if you are refueling it after it has been

out of fuel for a long time, you will need to wait about thirty (30) minutes for the wick to

become fully saturated.

1. Turn the wick adjuster knob clockwise until it stops.

As the wick rises within the heater, the wick adjuster knob turns

with some resistance and makes a sound like the winding of a

clock. Once the wick has reached its proper height, the automatic

extinguisher is fully engages.

The wick adjuster knob can now move freely left or right to adjust

the flame.

2. AUTOMATIC LIGHTING

Gently push the igniter button, the igniter coil should glow and

touch the wick.

NOTE: If you have difficulty igniting wick, push back the igniter

button very slightly to remove the igniter coil from direct

contact with the wick.

3. LIGHTING WITH MATCH

You should not have to light the heater with a match, but should it

become necessary, open the grille, lift the heat chamber up by

holding the wire handle and touch the match to the top of the

wick. Do not allow burned parts of the match to fall or remain on

the wick.

NOTE: To restore the automatic igniter system to proper operation,

replace worn out batteries, or if the igniter coil defective,

replace it.

4. Be sure that heat chamber is properly seated by moving the wire

handle left and right. If the movement is cough and jerky, it

indicates that the heat chamber has not seated properly.

BAD GOOD BAD

NOTE: An improperly seated heat chamber can cause high flame,

smoke, and potential damage to the heater itself. Do not

leave the heater until you have determined that the flame is

burning normally, will be described in the following section.

ADJUSTING THE FLAME

1. After lighting wait for the heat chamber to reach operating temperature. This will take several

minutes, then the flame will be visible.

2. CHECK THE FLAME HEIGHT

After five minutes, the entire heat chamber should be glowing red.

If necessary, raise or lower the wick by turning the wick adjuster knob to produce the proper

flame condition.

NOTE: Do not operate your heater wick set TOO LOW or TOO HIGH. Doing so will decrease

combustion efficiency and increase production of unwanted emissions. When operating

heater, be sure wick is high enough to keep the primary heat chamber heated to a

uniform red glow from its top to bottom.

3. ADJUSTMENT OF MAXIMUM WICK HEIGHT

After using the heater over a long period of time, you may observe that the flame length in heat

chamber does not reach its normal level in several minutes after lighting. When this condition is

observed, it means that the wick height needs adjusting the unique wick life extender.

To adjust the wick height using the wick life extender mechanism,

first release the automatic extinguisher by pushing the manual

shutoff button.

holes. Pull the control dial toward you and change the location of

the pin from 1to 2, or from 2to 3. Each step from pin 1to 2

will raise the maximum wick height by 2 mm per step. After this

adjustment, replace the wick adjuster knob.

When suitable flame length can no longer be achieved even on

pin position 3, it is time to clean and replace the wick. AFTER

REPLACING THE WICK, CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE

AUTOMATIC EXTINGUISHER BEFORE LIGHTING YOUR HEATER.

NOTE: Never use positions 2or 3until position 1no linger

gives adequate flame length.

EXTINGUISHING THE FLAME

1. Turn the wick adjuster knob counterclockwise until it stops. This

requires about a quarter turn. At this point, the flame is

completely extinguished and the heater is off.

NOTE: DO NOT use the automatic extinguisher to routinely turn off

this heater. Automatic extinguishing should occur only when

the heater is jarred or tipped. Using the automatic

extinguisher to turn off the heater will cause odor, smoke and

soot.

2. Make sure the flame is out completely.

3. Do not try to relight the heater for at least three (3) minutes

extinguishing it off as this may cause smoke and odor.

MANUAL SHUTOFF

When quick shutoff is necessary, push the manual shutoff button.

NOTE: For routine turn-off, DO NOT use the Manual Shutoff or

activate the Automatic Extinguisher by jarring the heater.

These methods may cause unwanted odor, soot and smoke.

Only the wick adjuster knob should be used for normal

shutoff.

REPLACING THE IGNITER COIL

WARNING: Before replacing the igniter coil, allow the heater to cool completely.

1. FIRST CHECK THE BATTERIES

When the igniter coil no longer glows sufficiently to light the

wick, replace the batteries. If proper glow is not restored, the

igniter coil may be defective.

2. CHANGE THE IGNITER COIL

Remove the batteries from the battery holder.

Release the automatic extinguisher, and remove the heat chamber

as described in Items 1 and 2 of the preceding section.

Note that the igniter coil fits into a bayonet socket the same way a

flashlight bulb fits into its holder.

To remove the igniter coil, push it in and twist in either direction

while holding the sides of the socket with your other hand.

Install the new igniter coil by pressing it into the socket and

turning.

Replace the heat chamber, and reinstall the batteries.

STORAGE

At the end of each heating season, or when you do not plan to use your heater for an extended

period of time, the following procedures are recommended:

1. DRAIN FUEL SUB TANK

After you have burned your heater dry, a small amount of

kerosene will remain in the fuel sub tank. It should be removed in

odor to avoid contamination when the heater is refueled at a later

date. To do this, disassemble the heater as described in items, I

throng 4 under “REPLACING THE WICK”. Remove the fuel

acceptance fitting from the hole in the fuel sub tank.

Tilt the drip tray toward the hole, and remove the remaining

kerosene with a siphon or a small syringe.

Replace the fuel acceptance fitting.

Replace the cabinet and the heat chamber.

2. REMOVE BATTERIES FROM BATTERY HOLDER

3. STORE HEATER

The original shipping carton is the best place to store your heater.

If you do not have original packing materials, cover the heater

with a large plastic bag and store in a dry place.
