    Dyna-Glo Kerosene wick won't stay up
    I have a Dyna-Glo Kerosene (RMC-95-C2) heater,

    After attempting to change out the wick, I installed raised and it wouldn't lower. So I took it back apart. When I went to raise itagain, It would not. It doesn't click and immediately falls back to extinguished position. I haven't even attempted putting the wick back on until I get it to click and stay up..

    Any Ideas?

    This is the same heater but the company name has changed. See page 9-10 for wick replacement

    I figured it out, the auto extinguish part was bent, thus not allowing the ratchet part on the turn dial to catch on the bottom parts of the extinguisher.
