OPERATOR'S MANUAL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
for ORIGO Alcohol Stoves
models 1500, 3000.
WARNING!
WATER OR A CLASS A FIRE EXTINGUISHER WILL PUT OUT AN ALCOHOL FIRE.
SPECIAL SAFETY
SECTION
Carefully read and understand these instruc-
tions before operating your ORIGO stove. Save
these instructions and review them periodically.
Fuel Safety.
1. Use only denatured alcohol. Never use gasoline, kerosene,
methanol, propane, charcoal lighter, diesel or other flammable
substances or fuels. Uncontrollable operation and flare-ups can
result and cause serious burns or personal injury.
2. Store fuel in an approved container away from the stove, the
engine or other heat source.
3. Eliminate all sources of sparks or flames in the area where
fuel is poured or stored.
4. Do not smoke while working with fuel.
5. Wipe up immediately any spilled fuel.
Filling and Lighting Safety.
1. Do not attempt to fill fuel tanks while they are still in
stove. Overfilling, spillage, or hot surfaces can cause serious
burns and fires.
2. Never pour fuel through burner openings in top of stove.
(Picture 1)
3. Remove fuel tanks from stove by carefully following instruc-
tions.
4. Move fuel tanks to a safe area away from all sparks, flames,
or other heat sources before filling with fuel.
5. Make sure tanks are cool enough to be held in your bare
hand before filling with fuel.
6. Fuel may burn with almost invisible flame. Make sure that
flame and heat-glow are extinguished before filling the tanks.
Flame or heat-glow can cause alcohol fire, resulting in serious
burns and personal injury.
7. Do not overfill tanks. Filling instructions must be followed
closely. Check the fuel by tilting the tank vertically (Picture5).
In this position, maximum fuel level occurs when fuel just
begins to show in the recess inside the tank opening. Alcohol
expands when heated. If the tank is overfilled, the surplus will
overflow into the stove cavity and can cause uncontrollable
burning.
8. Wipe tanks to remove any excess fuel before replacing tanks
in the stove.
9. Light burners by holding a lit match or long lighter at the
tank opening through the burner opening in the stovetop. As
soon as the burner ignites, quickly remove hand to avoid burn-
ing your fingers. Long fireplace matches or an ORIGO lighter
is recommended.
Installation and Maintenance
Safety.
1. Place stove in a well-ventilated area away from all combus-
tible material. Excessive draft must be avoided.
2. Do not hang or place towels, papers, curtains or other com-
bustibles near an installed stove.
3. Keep all surfaces and interior parts free of grease, alcohol or
other flammable substances.
4. To be sure of safe function of your ORIGO stove, do not use
an oversize pot. Max. recommended pot diameter: 9”(230mm)
5. Make sure the appliance is securely in position when in
operation as well as when not in use.
