There are serious hazards associated with using this stove and fuel. Accidental fire, explosion, and misuse can cause death, serious burns, and property damage. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of those in your group. Please use good judgment and read these instructions for use carefully. Familiarize yourself with the stove before connecting it to its gas container. Keep these instructions for future reference.This stove is a lightweight, the compact device made for OUTDOOR USE ONLY to boil water or cook food.DANGER Never use it for any other purpose. Use of stove within any enclosure, or for a purpose other than boiling water or cooking food can cause fire, burns, severe injury, or death. Cooking outdoors is more hazardous than cooking as you normally would at home. Please consult with your local outdoor retailer to learn more about cooking outdoors. Seek qualified instruction before you venture outdoors. This stove uses a liquid pressurized gas (LPG) container that is highly flammable and explosive.This stove shall only be used with an 80% isobutane / 20% propane gas cartridge certified to EN 417. It may be hazardous to attempt to fit other types of gas containers. Follow this safety information:

  • Check that the seals between the stove and the gas container are in place and in good condition before connecting the stoveto the cylinder. Do not use this stove if it has damaged or worn seals.
  • Gas containers must be changed in a well-ventilated location outside and away from any sources of ignition, such as nakedflames, pilot lights, electric fires, and away from other people.
  • Listen and smell for leaking gas. Leaking gas is a serious hazard. LPG is invisible and odorless, and strong odorant additivescan fade over time. Leaks are not always detectable by smell. Do not use this stove if it is leaking, damaged, or does notoperate properly.
  • Check that the stove and fuel container connection is secure and tight. If the connection does not look or feel secure, or ifyou hear or smell leaking gas and cannot stop the flow of gas, do not use a stove or fuel container. Move it to a well-ventilated area away from any ignition source to locate and stop the leak.
  • Check for leaks using soapy water. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame. The use of a leaking stove can cause fire, burns, severe injury, or death.
  • Never use fuel canisters that weigh more than 8 oz. (227 g) and never use canisters more than 4 inches (~10 cm) high, because oversized canisters increase stove instability.
  • Use MSR canister stand when using canisters with a diameter less than 4 inches (~10 cm).
  • Keep stove and fuel container away from other heat sources. Never use any kind of windscreen. If you expose the fuel container to high heat, it will explode or leak and you can be killed or seriously burned.
  • Follow all warnings on fuel containers regarding use and storage. The canister can be checked for remaining fuel by assembling and attempting to light the stove.
  • Do not store or use gasoline or other liquids with flammable vapors in the vicinity of this or any other stove.
  • Do not disassemble the stove beyond what is described in these instructions. DO NOT MODIFY THIS STOVE.  Disassembly or modification of stove in any manner not consistent with these instructions voids warranty and can result in an unsafe situation where fire, burns, severe injury, or death can occur. No user-serviceable parts.
  • Do not use the stove if parts are missing or broken, or with replacement parts not specific to your stove model. Use of stove with missing or broken parts, or with eplacement parts not specific to your stove model, can result in an unsafe situation where fire, burns, severe injury, or death can occur.
  • Because of the compact nature of the Reactor® stove system and its resulting height, the Reactor stove system may tip more easily than stove systems of lesser height. To mitigate tipping: (1) use stove only with Reactor cookware, (2) never leave the stove unattended, (3) keep children and pets far away from the stove, (4) always use the stove on a solid, stable and even surface, and (5) never use the stove in a manner inconsistent with these instructions or contrary to its intended use. Tipping of the Reactor stove system can result in an unsafe situation where fire, burns, severe injury or death can occur.

DANGER Do not use this stove: (1) before reading and fully understanding this Instruction Manual; (2) if you are not prepared or comfortable attending to a burning and/or hot stove at all times; (3) if you observe leaking fuel; or (4) if you observe any condition with the stove system or in the surrounding environment that would make the operation of an open flamed device dangerous. Failure to follow these directions can cause an unsafe situation leading to fire, burns, severe injury, or death.

THERMAL TRIP MECHANISM

The Reactor® stove is designed with an internal Thermal Trip mechanism, which will shut the stove off if it becomes overheated. Overheating may result from the use of non-Reactor cookware, storage above 120°F (49°C), damage to the burner unit, or improper lighting. If the stove becomes inoperable, immediately discontinue use and return the stove to an authorized MSR dealer.

  1. Close Flame Adjuster (F). Turn Flame Adjuster clockwise. 2. Finger-tighten stove onto top of the canister until the connection is secure.

DANGERNever overtighten stove onto the canister. Overtightening may damage the stove or fuel canister, causing fuel to leak. Leaking fuel can cause fire, burns, severe injury, or death.Use extreme caution when using the stove in temperatures below freezing. In freezing temperatures, O-rings can stiffen and leak fuel. Always check for fuel leaks before and after lighting the stove. The use of a leaking stove can cause fire, burns, severe injury, or death. Keep children away from stoves and fuel. Cascade Designs, Inc. recommends no less than 10 feet (~ 3 meters). Never leave a burning or hot stove unattended. An unattended stove can lead to fire and/or a situation where children, pets, or the unwary can be burned, injured, or killed.

STOVE SET UP

  1. Clear cooking area of combustible materials and flammable liquids or vapors. 2. Place stove assembly on a solid, stable, even surface. Use an MSR® canister stand when using small fuel canisters (dia. < 4 in/10.2 cm).

DANGER Keep combustibles at least 4 feet (1.2 meters) away from the top and sides of a burning stove, or a stove that you are in the process of lighting. Keep flammable liquids and vapors at least 25 feet (7.6 meters) away from the top and sides of a burning stove, or a stove that you are in the process of lighting. This stove can ignite nearby combustible materials, flammable liquid, and vapors, creating a situation where fire, burns, severe injury, or death can result.Never attempt to light the stove if the Flame Adjuster is left open. If Flame Adjuster is left open, close it immediately and thoroughly ventilate the area before lighting the stove. Failure to ventilate an area can result in an explosion that can cause fire, burns, severe injury, or death.
