Fuel

OK-heaters work with paraffin or diesel; paraffin gives the cleanest combustion. Be
aware that the more dust and dirt that is contained in the fuel, the more ventilation
will be required! Use the cleanest fuel possible.
Note: paraffin may only be stored in blue containers; red containers are associated
with petrol!
 NEVER use other fuels such as petrol, alcohol, oil compounds or similar in this
heater; this could lead to fire or explosion!
 NEVER store paraffin in direct sunlight of near a source of heat.
 Do not store paraffin in living/work areas but in a well-ventilated area such as a
shed, storage area or similar.
 NEVER use paraffin from the previous season. Paraffin deteriorates in quality and
will not burn properly as a result.
 If you can, use 1-K paraffin in this heater. Other premium quality paraffin may also
be used.

Working principle

Fuel system: The heater is fitted with an electric air pump that pushes air through
the air pipes along the fuel inlet and forces the fuel from the tank into the fuel nozzle.
This mixture of fuel and air is then sprayed into the combustion chamber as a fine
mist.
Ignition mechanism:
electrode/sparkplug. This uses a spark to ignite the mixture of fuel and air, as
described above.
Air system: The heavy motor drives a ventilator that sends air into and around the
combustion chamber. The air is then heated up and driven out of the front of the
heater.
Safety devices:
Temperature limiter: This heater is fitted with a temperature limiter that switches the
heater off if the internal temperature rises to an unsafe level. If this safety device is
