4-1. Daily inspection

■ Inspection of the filter and drainage of water from the fuel tank
Checking the filter element
Remove the suction pipe from the fuel tank.
1
If the filter is dirty, replace it with a new one.
2
Return the suction pipe to the fuel tank and
3
firmly secure.
Drainage of water from the fuel tank
Remove the fuel cap and insert a suction
1
pump into the tank.
Remove as much fuel as possible (with the
2
suction pump). Be sure that the fuel being
removed is put only into a can or other con-
tainer approved in your area for holding
flammable liquids such as kerosene and
No.1 Fuel Oil.
Tighten the fuel cap firmly.
3
Prepare an empty container of about 3 liters
4
(0.7gallons) capacity: to hold kerosene and
water remaining in the fuel tank, place the
container under the drain bolt (of the fuel
tank).
Next, use a 24mm wrench to remove the
5
drain bolt and tilt the fuel tank until the fuel is
completely drained out of the tank. (At the
same time, be careful not to lose the drain
bolt packing.)
Restore the drain bolt packing and tighten the
6
drain bolt firmly so that fuel can not leak out
(of the fuel tank).

While the heater is operating, grasp the
1
handle and shake the heater up and down,
and from side to side.
Check if the tip-over switch has automati-
2
12
cally extinguished the flame.
Pull up
Wipe off kerosene or water spilled over the
7
tank and the surrounding area.
Be sure to dispose of in a safe manner as
8
approved in your local area the kerosene,
etc, placed in the empty container and the
materials used to clean up any spilled kero-
sene, etc. Safely clean and/or dispose of
the empty container as also approved in
your local area.
