SAFETY CONTINUED

STOP

WARNING! Risk of indoor air pollution!

The products described in these instructions are kerosene direct-fired, forced air heaters. Kerosene forced air heaters are primarily intended for use for temporary heating of buildings under construction, alteration or repair. Direct-fired means that all of the combustion products of the heater enter the heated space. This appliance is rated at 98% combustion efficiency, but does produce small amounts of carbon monoxide.

DANGER! Carbon monoxide poison may lead to death.

• Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans can tolerate only small amounts of carbon monoxide, so precautions should be taken to provide proper ventilation. Failure to provide proper ventilation in accordance with these instructions can result in death.
  • People with breathing problems should consult a physician before using this heater.
• Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu. Symptoms of improper ventilation/carbon monoxide poisoning are headache, dizziness, nausea, dry mouth, sore throat and burning of nose and eyes.
• If you experience any of these symptoms, get fresh air at once. Have your heater serviced and check for proper ventilation. Some people are affected by carbon monoxide more than others. These include pregnant women, those with heart or lung problems, anemia or those under the influence of alcohol or at high altitudes.
• For outdoor use. Indoor use permitted only for the temporary heating of adequately ventilated buildings or structures under construction, alteration or repair. Provide at least a three square feet opening of outside air for every 100,000 BTU/HR heater rating. Refer to Ventilation on page 5 for more information.

OPERATION

FUELING THE HEATER

KEROSENE (1-K)

For optimal performance of this heater, it is strongly suggested that 1-K kerosene be used. 1-K 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 heater's seals and filter.

• CSA certified for use with 1-K kerosene, no. 1 and no. 2 diesel, JP8/Jet A Fuel, no. 1 and no. 2 fuel oil.

Do not use any fuel that is not approved above.

DANGER! Never refuel this heater while it is hot or operating. Fire or explosion could result.

CAUTION! Never fill the fuel tank indoors. Always fill the tank outdoors. Ensure the heater is on level ground.

WARNING! Do not use gasoline or crankcase drainings.

• Never use fuel such as benzene, alcohol, white gas, 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 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. Old kerosene will not burn properly in this heater.

NOTE: Kerosene should only be stored in a blue container that is clearly marked "Kerosene". Never store kerosene in a red container. Red is associated with gasoline.

VENTILATION

• Risk of indoor air pollution and carbon monoxide poisoning. Use heater only in well ventilated areas.
  • Refer to Safety section on pages 1 and 2 for information about carbon monoxide poisoning.

DANGER! Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to death.

- Always provide a fresh air opening in the heated space of at least three square feet for each 100,00 BTU/HR of heater output. Provide a larger opening if more heaters are being used.
