Long Term Storage:
1. Unscrew the fuel cap.
2. Using an approved siphon, remove the
Kerosene or diesel.
3. Using a small amount of Kerosene or diesel,
rinse and swirl the fuel inside the fuel tank
NOTE: NEVER MIX WATER WITH FUEL. It will
cause rust inside the tank.
4. Empty the tank completely.
IMPORTANT: Never store leftover Kerosene
between seasons, using old fuel can
damage heater.
Store Heater in a dry, well ventilated area.
