Site the heater and gas cylinder in the location to be heated. Gas cylinders must only be used when standing vertically, with the outlet
upwards.
5.1.3.
Connect the heater to an electrical supply outlet, ensuring that the machine is correctly earthed. See safety instructions.
5.1.4.
Connect the gas supply hose to the pressure regulator, and connect the regulator to the gas cylinder (fig.4).
Note: The regulator connects to the cylinder with a left hand thread.
5.1.5.
Connect the other end of the gas supply hose to the heater's gas inlet connector (fig.5.A). Ensure all connections are tight.
5.1.6.

6. OPERATION
6.1.
STARTING
6.1.1.
Open the supply valve on the cylinder(s) slowly. Opening too rapidly may shut the excess flow valve on the cylinder. If this does
happen, close the supply valve and re-open more slowly. The excess flow valve is a safety feature to stop the flow of gas in case of a
major leak in the hose.
6.1.2.
Set the thermostat (fig.5.C) to 'High'. The heater will ignite automatically.
6.1.3.
The heat output can be regulated by turning the heat output valve (fig.5.B).
6.1.4.
Set the required ambient temperature by means of the thermostat. When the target temperature is reached, the heater will switch off
and will re-ignite when the temperature drops below that set.
SHUTTING DOWN
6.2.
6.2.1.
Firstly, close the valve on the propane cylinder(s).
6.2.2.
If not already running, start the machine as in 6.1.2.
6.2.3.
Let the machine run until the flame extinguishes, signifying the gas has bled away.
6.2.4.
Turn the thermostat to 'Off'.
6.2.5.
disconnect the heater from the mains electric supply.
6.2.6.
If the heater shuts down automatically owing to a safety issue:
Close the supply valve.
disconnect from the mains.
Wait for a minimum of 5 minutes.
Restart as in section 6.1.
7. MAINTENANCE
7.1.
Inspect the heater, its electrical and gas connections before each use. If any component causes concern, replace before use.
7.2.

WARNING Regarding Air Contaminants.
‰
Air contaminants taken into the heater will damage the unit, cause health problems and safety issues.
Example: Body shop filler dust and overspray dust will clog the burner diffuser, contaminate the combustion chamber and damage the
internal parts of the heater. If contaminants are present the heater must be supplied with clean air.
Please note that any parts damaged by filler dust or overspray dust will not be covered by warranty. Additionally a cleaning
charge will be made for any heaters damaged by filler dust or overspray dust.
8. STORAGE
