The SX-B21 Kerosene Heater has a wick that is located at the base of the heater. When changing the wick out always be sure to pour out any kerosene that may be left in the lamp.
A wick is a bundle of fibres within a candle, an oil lamp, or a kerosene heater.
To replace the wick on a Corona kerosene heater follow the instructions on many YouTube videos. There is no one way to change all the models that there are.
A kerosene heater has a wick made of fiberglass that is connected to a kerosene tank. When the wick is lit, the kerosene keeps the wick burning, and a convection unit in the heater uses the flame to heat the air. In some kerosene heaters, there is a fan to blow the heated air into the room to heat it faster.
When you get the new wick, it usually has the instructions with it. But basically you take apart the cage so you can get to the wick, then take apart the wick holder. Go to this website, it has a nice diagram of a wick being replaced, so it will give you a good idea of how to get it done, you can also try going to the website of the MFG of your heater, sometimes they have a nice diagram of replacement.

Un screw top from base. Remove wick tube. Cut 1/4" off of top of wick. Soak wick in denatured alcohol.
Turn the wick down as far as it will go. The Flame Spreader will drop down on top of the wick guide, smothering the flame.
