OWNER’S MANUAL

STORING,
TRANSPORTING,
OR SHIPPING

Note:

If shipping, transport companies re-

quire fuel tanks to be empty.

1.

Drain fuel tank. Drain fuel through fuel
cap opening. Be sure all fuel is re-
moved.

2.

If any debris is noted in old fuel, add 1
or 2 quarts of clean kerosene to tank,
stir, and drain again. This will prevent
excess debris from clogging filters dur-
ing future use.

3.

Replace fuel cap. Properly dispose of old
and dirty fuel. Check with local auto-
motive service stations that recycle oil.

4.

If storing, store heater in dry place.
Make sure storage place is free of dust
and corrosive fumes.

IMPORTANT:

Do not store kerosene over

summer months for use during next heating
season. Using old fuel could damage heater.
