NEVER LEAVE THE HEATER

UNATTENDED WHILE BURNING

To replace the igniter plug (Fig. 16);

Remove the batteries.

Remove the 2 Guard Bracket by removing 4 Screws and lift off the

Guard grill assembly.

Remove burner chamber and push the ignition lever to raise the

igniter plug.

Pull the igniter plug in and turn in a clockwise direction to remove.

Install a new igniter plug (Type "B", 2.5V DC, 1A only) by pushing it

in and turning it in a

counter-clockwise direction.

Reassemble the heater and replace the batteries.

TEST IGNITION

Using the wick adjuster knob, raise the wick to its maximum height.

Push the ignition lever.

The igniter plug should be within 1~2mm of the wick when the ignition lever is fully engaged. (Fig. 13)

ADJUSTING THE WICK

After lighting the heater, it is important to check the heater flame within the first 5-7 minutes of operation.

During the first 5 minutes after ignition, the burner chamber warms up and flames will become visible at the top

of burner. These flames will gradually build up. After 5-7 minutes of operation, you should use the wick

adjuster knob to obtain the proper flame height. The proper flame height is a 1/2” flame above the center flame

spreader disk, with even distribution of flame around the flame spreader disk visible through the glass cylinder

of the heater. See pictures below for reference.

As you continue to operate the heater, the temperature of the heater and the temperature of the room will

continue to change. As the heater warms up, the kerosene in the tank will vaporize faster, and this could

require adjusting the wick adjuster down in order to maintain the desired 1/2" flame height. Therefore, it is

necessary to continue to monitor the flame height, and to make adjustments using the wick adjuster knob to

keep the proper flame height. It is recommended that the heater be checked every 30 minutes in order to keep

the proper adjustment because periodic adjustment is required.

IMPORTANT NOTE : NEVER LEAVE THE HEATER UNATTENDED WHILE BURNING.

Always make sure to turn the heater off and inspect it to insure that it is completely

extinguished prior to going to bed.

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 assemby 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.
