Safety and Precautions

Your safety and the safety of others is a primary concern to Chief Industries, Inc. This manual was
written to assist in the safe installation and operation of the Caldwell Heater.
It is your responsibility as the owner, builder, operator, or supervisor to know what specific
requirements, precautions and hazards exist and to make these known to all personnel working with
equipment or on the jobsite so that they can observe any necessary safety precautions.
All personnel, including the installation crew, must read and understand the information contained in
this manual before starting construction. Chief Industries, Inc. is not responsible or liable for the
misuse of equipment or operation of personnel or equipment in an unsafe manner.
Chief Industries, Inc. assumes no liability with respect to proper construction and inspection, assembly,
or use of its products established under applicable laws, all of which is the sole responsibility of the
purchaser and those authorized for the installation.
Follow all local and federal safety laws and regulations. Verify that all equipment and personnel
conform to any applicable jurisdiction regulations.
Work Area Safety Statement
To ensure the safety of all individuals in the work area, only authorized and trained persons shall install,
maintain and use the Caldwell Heater.
Under no circumstances should unauthorized individuals be allowed to trespass or be present in the
work area.
It shall be the duty of all operators to ensure that the work area is clean, organized and kept free of all
debris and tools that might cause an accidental tripping or falling hazard.
Special care should be taken when working from unsafe heights. Common sense dictates that when
conditions such as rain or wind prohibit the safe use of equipment, the installation be discontinued.
Chief Industries, Inc. strongly recommends that equipment meeting the current specifications be used,
whether the individual operator is required by law to do so or not. Proper climbing equipment and a
secured safety harness should be used at all times when performing operations work, installation or
maintenance.
Field modifications without the authorization of the manufacturer may present unknown dangers to the
operator and must be avoided.
Auxiliary Equipment Safety
You may decide to purchase and install "auxiliary equipment" made by other manufacturers. Chief
Industries, Inc. has no control over the design and manufacture of this equipment. In view of this, at a
minimum, we suggest you do the following:
