ASSEMBLY
1. First, take all parts out of the inside of the
oven.
2. Unfold the supports and secure each one of
the supports with the system of pins (Fig. 2).
3. Now attach the five-part flue on the body
of the Loki. At the very bottom, i.e. directly
on the oven, attach the component with the
outgoing air control, now pointing upwards.
To ensure that the smoke can correctly
escape through the flue, all flue parts must
be correctly and tightly attached.
4. If you use the Petromax Loki in a tent,
install the suitable tent kit and a spark arre-
stor. Ideally, attach the tent kit as high as
possible in the tent, so that the created heat
puts as little strain as possible on the tent
material.
5. Finally, fasten the ash catcher under the
oven door. If you open the oven door while
using the oven, the ash catcher catches the
hot embers that might fall down.
FIRST USE
Caution! The first lighting of the
Petromax Loki should be done out-
doors and not in a tent, for it can
produce smoke.
LIGHTING THE LOKI
• Place the Petromax Loki on an even, steady
surface.
• When placing the tent oven, make sure the
oven door can be opened and closed trouble-
free.

• If you wish to use a firelighter, place it first
in the combustion chamber of the oven, and
then stack your firewood. We recommend
only solid firelighters, such as Petromax
Zunder or the Petromax Fire Kit. If you do not
have a special firelighter, start the fire with
an old newspaper and thinly chopped wood.
• Optimal fuel for your Petromax Loki are
brushwood, dry twigs, well seasoned fire-
wood, etc. Do not use damp wood!
• Open the door only to put more fuel. Keep
it closed or in draught position to ensure an
optimal combustion. In draught position,
the fire is further fanned and provided with
oxygen.
• Put more fuel when needed, thus regulating
the heat of the fire in the tent oven. Putting
more firewood is particularly easy thanks to
the Petromax Lid Lifter for Dutch Ovens, if
you use it as a poker.
COOKING WITH THE PETROMAX LOKI
• After ca. 30 minutes, the
Petromax Loki should be
hot enough for you to cook
on it. While cooking, the
outgoing air control should
always be completely open.
The levers are then pointing
upward and downward (ver-
tical position).
• Place suitable cookware such as pots, pans
and kettles on the cooking surface (40 x
25 cm) and prepare a delicious meal. If
you wish to use a Petromax Dutch Oven
on the Petromax Loki, we recommend the
model without legs; otherwise, the distance
between the pot and the tent oven is too big
and allows the heat to escape unused.
• To ensure that the oven is kept in balance,
always place the pots, pans and kettles as
centrally as possible on the cooking surface.
• You can remove the round cooking plate of
the tent oven and thus cook and fry food
directly on the fire. In particular then, we
recommend that you use suitable cookware
1
with a base diameter of at least 16 cm (6.3 in)
in order to cover the opening in the cooking
surface completely – otherwise, flames or
sparks could come out.
• To reduce heat, close the oven door com-
pletely. If you want the fire to be further
5
poked, put some more wood and engage the
oven door in draught position.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CARE AND
STORAGE
• Once you have finished cooking or heating,
let the fire in the Petromax Loki burn out.
Never pour water to extinguish the fire in the
tent oven.
• Once the tent oven has cooled down, you can
remove the ashes through the opened oven
door. Remove soot from the parts of the flue
2
as well.
• We recommend cleaning the tent oven after
each use. Remove the ashes from the com-
bustion chamber and soot from the parts of
the flue. Wait until ashes and soot are cold
before removing them, and then dispose of
them properly. Never throw hot ashes in the
domestic refuse!
• Let the tent oven cool down and clean it
before storing it.
• You can wipe your Petromax Loki with an oily 4
cloth in order to increase the corrosion resi-
stance of its surface.
WARRANTY
In the case of normal use, a warranty period
of two years will apply to your Petromax Loki
from the date of purchase. If you cannot pro-
perly use your tent oven and camping stove due
to a defect in material or manufacturing, you
are entitled to a warranty repair. Contact your
dealer for that purpose.
