heaters ever made. TOYOTOMI, the leader in kerosene heater technology, has tested and refined the DC-80to
assure you of long-term safety and satisfaction. Please study the following instructions, use and care for your
heater carefully, and it will serve you well for many years,
SAFETY TIPS
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR HEATER, PLEASE review these safety tip:
WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSION
1. Never use any fuel other than water-clear kerosene (ASTM No.1-K kerosene) Ga
Never use gasoline. Use of gasoline can lead to uncontrollable flames resuting in |
destructive fire, Even Kerosene contaminated with small amounts of gasoline, or | 3
similriy volatile materials, can be hazardous, Never use acanforkerosenethathas | ‘eoeene |)
previously been used for gasoline, paint thinner, or solvents. Co
2. Never refill heater fuel tank when heater is operating or still hot. To do so may —>}
cause a “flash back’ of flame to the fuel container, resulting in injury to yourselt kts,
and your property. ii
3. Never use heater in areas where flammable vapors or gases may be present.
Especially avoid use of heater where gasoline, naphtha, acetone or other volatile
solvents are in the air, or whose containers are open. Such vapors could be ignited
by the heater, resulting in fire and/or explosion,
4, Never fill heater fuel tank in living space. Fill heater tank outdoors. Never overfill
your heater. Always replace heater tank cap securely after refueling. Spillage of
kerosene produces strong odor which is hard to remove. Spillage on carpet can be
\gnited if match or some other ignition source contacts it
5. Never store or transport kerosene in other than a metal or plastic container that is
(1) acceptable for kerosene, (2) non-red in color, and (3) clearly marked,
“KEROSENE”. Never store kerosene in the living space, Picking up a gasoline can
by mistake when fueling is a major cause of heater fires.
WARNING
RISK OF BURNS OR FIRE
1, Observe the heater carefully for 15-20 minutes after start-up. Problems of
improper adjustment of wick height or improperly seated heat chamber should
become evident during this warm up period,
NOTE: Carefully follow the instructions for lighting and adjusting the flame.
2, Duetohigh surface temperatures, keep away from children, furniture and clothing
3. Do not operate heater without protective guards completely attached,4. Do not use heater to heat or boil water or as a cooking appliance. Do not place
cooking utensils, tea kettles or any other object on top of heater while in operation.
6, Toavoid possible burns or fire, donot move, refuel or attempt to service your heater
while itis burning or still hot Ifthe heater is dropped while itis burning, fuel spillage
and flames outside the heater may occur.
6. Do not operate heater less than three (3) feet from walls, draperies, clothing, oF
furniture. The operation of any heating appliance too close to such materials could
cause them to ignite, possibly resulting in a serious fire.
7. To avoid unstable burning, do not operate your heater in areas exposed to strong
drafts, Do not operate heater in high-traffic areas such as doorways or hallways
where it may be touched, jarred or tipped accidentally
8. Do not operate heater in direct sunlight to avoid overheating, which may cause
‘abnormal flame behaivor. Do not allow room temperature to go above 80° 85°F.
I the room temperature exceeds 80°-85°F the flame may increase, thereby
producing smoke,
9. Before going out, or at bedtime, turn the heater off, making sure the wick is in its
lowest position (see Extinguishing the Flame on page 10) and flame is completely
extinguished
AUST]
RISK OF INDOOR AIR POLLUTION
Use heater only in well-ventilated areas. People with breathing problems should
consult a physician before using the heater.
“In @ house of typical construction, that is, one that is not of unusually tight
construction due to heavy insulation and tight seals against air infiltration, an
‘adequate supply of air for combustion and ventilation is provided through infiltration.
However, ifthe heater is used in a small room where less than 200 cubic feet (5.7m)
of air space is provided for each 1000 Btu per hour of heater rating (considering the
maximum burner adjustment), the door(s)to adjacent room(s) should be kept open or a
window to the outside should be opened at least 1 inch (25.4 mm) to guard against
‘potential buildup of indoor air pollution. Do not use the heater in a bathroom or any
‘other small room with the door closed.”FUEL GUIDE
The Toyostove DC-80 is designed for use with high-quality kerosene only. Use of low-quality kerosene will cause
wick performance to drop, leading to “low flame” and “odor problem” conditions.
Purchase only 1-K kerosene in non-red cans reserved exclusively for kerosene and marked accordingly with the
word “KEROSENE”. Always store your kerosene in a separate area from where you store gasoline for your
Power equipment, to avoid accidental use of gasoline in your heater.
‘What to Buy
ALWAYS: Crystal clear, colorless, high quality KEROSENE, ASTM No.1-K.
ALWAYS : Kerosene free of contaminants, water or cloudiness.
NEVER: Gasoline, alcohol, white gas, camp stove fuel or additives.
NEVER: Yellow or sour-smelling fuel
How to Use It
ALWAYS : _ Fill heater away from living quarters when heater is cool; use siphon.
ALWAYS ; Check wick frequently for tar build-up, (Rapid, heavy build-up may
indicate poor quality or deteriorated fuel.)
ALWAYS : Watch fuel gauge to avoid over filling heater.
How to Store It
ALWAYS : Ina clean container, clearly marked KEROSENE.
ALWAYS: AWAY FROM direct sunlight, heat sources or extreme temperature
changes.
NEVER: Ina glass container, or one that has been used for other fuels.
NEVER: For longer than 6 months. (Begin each heating season with fresh
kerosene; discard at the end of the season.)
‘Why It is Important
Pure, clean kerosene is essential for safe and efficient heater operation. Poor
quality of contaminated kerosene can cause:
© Low flame
© Excess tar deposits on the wick
© Reduced wick life
© Odor, smoke
© Difficulty in igniting or extinguishing flame
Use of a highly volatile flammable fuel such as gasoline can produce uncontrollable
flames, creating a severe fire hazard.
CAUTION
Flames observed emerging from the heater body are a clear indication that fuel is dangerously contaminated
with gasoline or other highly flammable material. If this occurs,
‘2, Never attempt to move the heater.
b. Call the Fire Department.
¢. Use only a class "B" fire extinguisher.
4. Never throw water directly on a butning heater.10.

1. Insert the straight tube of the manual fuel siphon into the kerosene container
Remove the fuel tank cap on the heater, and insert the siphon’s flexible hose into
the fuel tank opening
2. Turn the air vent knob on the top of the siphon clockwise to close the air vent.
3, To start the flow of kerosene, squeeze the bulb of the siphon vigorously six or
seven times. Once the flow begins, itis no longer necessary to squeeze the bulb,
To avoid overfilling the tank, watch the fuel gauge. As the indicator enters the
red zone, stop the flow by turning the air vent knob counterclockwise
NOTE: Be especially careful to avoid overfilling the tank with very cold
kerosene, otherwise overflow might occur when the fuel warms up
4, Remove the siphon carefully, allowing the excess kerosene to drain from the
tube back into container. Replace the fuel tank cap and tighten it securely. Be
Sure to wipe away any spilled kerosene from tank or other heater parts.
CHECK BEFORE LIGHTING
1. LOCATE YOUR HEATER AWAY FROM WALLS AND AVOID DRAFTS
Allow at least three (3) feet of clearance between the heater and walls, curtains, shelving or other
combustible materials. Do not operate your heater in drafty areas or locations where opening doors may
create gusts of air. Drafts or strong air currents may make flame unstable and affect heater performance
2. LEVEL THE HEATER
The heater should be operated on a firm, level floor
NOTE: If your heater is not level, change locations. Do not attempt to prop it up.
with books or other objects. An unlevel heater may burn with an uneven
flame.
3. CHECK THE WICK LIFE EXTENDER
When you first use your new heater of after replacing the wick, checkifthe WICK.
LIFE EXTENDER is on position (If not, readjust the wick life extender
mechanism to position ) by following the instructions on page 9, ADJUSTMENT
OF WICK HEIGHT WITH WICK LIFE EXTENDER
4, Engage the automatic extinguisher by turning the manual shutoff clockwise into
vertical positionLIGHTING
NOTE: When you first use your new heater, ignite it out ofthe living area of your house, either ina garage or an
outside area protected fram strong drafts. Burn itfor about 15 minutes to remove all of the protective oil
presenton the burner parts. I this 16 minute “burn-in” is done inside, some objectionable odor willbe
lobserved. This procedure is necessary ONLY THE FIRST TIME you ignite your heater.
NOTE. ifyouhave fueled yourheater for the firsttime, orif you are refueling it after it has been out of fuel for a
tong time, you will need to wait about thirty (30] minutes for the wick to become fully saturated before
lighting. Failure to allow enough time for the wick to become fully saturated may cause permanent
damage to the wick when it is lighted.
1. Turn the wick adjuster knob clockwise until it stops. This raises the wick to its
maximum height. As the wick rises within the heater, the wick adjuster knob
turns with some resistance and makes a sound like the winding of a clock. Once:
the wick has reached its proper height, the automatic extinguisher is fully
engaged. The wick adjuster knob will now move freely eft or right to adjust the
flame.
2, AUTOMATIC LIGHTING
Push the igniter lever gently to the right and down, (if you push violently the
igniter lever you may cause the heat chamber to be improperly seated) The
igniter coil should glow and touch the wick. When flame appears, release the
igniter lever.
NOTE: Ifyouhave difficulty igniting wick, let up on the igniter lever very slightly
to remove the igniter coll from direct contact with the wick.
3, LIGHTING WITH A MATCH
You should not have to light the heater with a match, but should it become
necessary, push the igniter lever and touch the match to the top of the wick. Do
not allow burned parts of the match to fall or remain on the wick
NOTE: To restore the automatic igniter system to proper operation, replace
worn-out batteries: or if the igniter coil is defective, replace it
4. Be sure that heat chamber is propery seated by moving the wire eat chamber

following section. yADJUSTING THE FLAME
1. After lighting, wait for the heat chamber to reach operating temperature. This will ake ten-fifteen minutes,
atter which the flame will be visible through the glass cylinder.
2. CHECK THE FLAME LENGTH
Look at the flame and check its length. Flame length is not necessarily even or uniform around the
circumference of the center disk. Some areas may be lower than others, but on maximum wick height, flame
length should average between 3/8 inch to 1 inch,
Hnecessary, raise or lower the wick by turning the wick adjuster knob to produce the proper flame condition
NOTE: Do not operate your heater with wick set TOO LOW or TOO HIGH. Doing so will decrease
‘combustion efficiency and increase production of unwanted emissions. When operating heater, be
sure wickis high enough to keep the primary heat chamber heated to a uniform red glow from top to
bottom.
NOTE: The wick-stop serves an important purpose. The wick-stop indicates the lowest level at which the
wick should be used. Use of the wick below this wick-stop setting will cause less efficient
combustion, possible smoke and odor, and should be avoided. DO NOT OPERATE THE HEATER,
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES WITH THE WICK ADJUSTER KNOB TURNED BELOW THE WICK:
STOP POSITION
NOTE: Always observe the heater closely for the first 15-20 minutes after itis lighted to be sure itis properly
adjusted.
3. ADJUSTMENT OF WICK HEIGHT WITH WICK LIFE EXTENDER.
Normal use of the wick and heat chamber over a period of time may make it impossible to achieve a
satisfactorily high flame level. Usually this occurs because the wick develops deposits on it that retard fuel
flow and evaporation. When this happens, the wick should be cleaned by “burning dry" as described in item
2, page 11 “INSPECTION OF THE WICK”.
When the “burning dry” cleaning procedure is no longer effective in restoring
proper flame height, adjust the wick life extender mechanism to the next higher
position.
NOTE: Donot move the wick life extender to a higher position unless the wick has
been cleaned by “burning dry”
To adjust the wick height rising the wick life extender, first release the automatic
extinguisher by turning the MANUAL SHUTOFF counterclockwise.
Then pull the wick adjuster knob from its shaft by pulling outward,10

EXTINGUISHING THE FLAME
4. Turn the wick adjuster knob counterclockwise until it stops (about 1/8 turn).
Push the button on the wick adjuster knob and continue turning counter-
clockwise until it stops again (about a half turn). Within 2 few moments, the
flame will be completely extinguished and the heater will be off.
2. Make sure the flame is out completely.
3, Donot try torelight the heater for at least three (3) minutes after turning it off, as
this may cause smoke and odor.
MANUAL SHUTOFF
When quick shutoff is necessary, turn the manual shutoff counterclockwise.
NOTE: For routine turn-off, DO NOT use the “Manual Shutoff” or activate the
‘Automatic Extinguisher” by jarring the heater. These methods may cause
unwanted odor, soot and smoke. Only the wick adjuster knob should be
used for normal shutoffCARE AND MAINTENANCE
‘AS with any good appliance, preventive as well as corrective maintenance is occasionally required,
Please read the following section carefully in order to enjoy the greatest benefits from your heater,
INSPECTION OF THE WICK
NOTE: One of the simplest but also the most important components of your heater is the wick.
With proper attention, the wick will last at least one heating season and, depending on the quality of the
fuel used, possibly longer. It helps to perform routine maintenance operations on the wick.
1. Indications that the wick may need attention are:
© low flame
© tar deposit on the top edge of the wick
© difficulty in turning the wick adjuster knob
© a flickering or dying flame
2. Clean the wick by burning dry as follows:
1), When the fuel gauge indicates empty, but the heater is still burning, raise the wick to its highest position
and allow the flame to consume the'remaining fuel in the tank
NOTE: Burning the wick dry can at times create odors. For the burning dry procedure, remove your heater
from the living area of your house into a well-ventilated area such as a garage or even a sheltered
area outside. If you burn the wick dry outside, be sure that the heater is not exposed to strong drafts
during the procedure.
2) After the heater has cooled completely, remove the heater cover as described in items 1 and2of thenext
section.
3) Remove any residue from the wick with a small brush such as an old toothbrush. Cinders or soot in the
burner around the wick may be vacuumed away. Be careful when removing such material from the wick
with a brush, to do so gently so as not to tear the top surface of the wick.
4) Remove any tar deposits on the top of wick adjuster and primary air tube using a scraper.
NOTE: When good wick performance is no longer achieved by the burning dry process, it may be necessary
to replace the burned wick with a new one.
6) Before reassembling the heater, take a few minutes to wipe the parts with a soft cotton cloth or paper
towels.
6) Reassemble the heater, following directions in item 11 of the next section.
NOTE: Ifthe flame is still low after cleaning the wick, the wick may contain some water. Itis then necessary
to replace the wick and empty all kerosene from the fuel tank. Dry the tank thoroughly and refill with
fresh, pure No. 1-K kerosene.
