Assembly and Positioning

FITTING THE CASTORS
WARNING The radiator must only be operated
with the wheels and castors fitted and in the
upright position.
The castors must be fitted to the control panel and between the
last and second last fin on the opposite end, as shown in Fig.1.
To fit the castors, turn the radiator upside down on a carpet or
other soft surface to avoid damage.
WARNING The radiator is heavy – ensure that
it is supported to prevent it from toppling. Ask
a second person to help with this if necessary.
Locate the wire clamp (A) and remove the winged nut (C).
Insert the non threaded end of the wire clamp into one of the
holes in the castor plate (B) as shown. Feed the threaded end
of the wire clamp between the last and second last column fins
ensuring the wire clamp wraps around the column body (sump).
some manipulation of the plate and clamp will be required. The
threaded end should then be passed through the castor plate
and secured using the wing nut.
To fit the castor to the control end, position the castor plate in
position and secure using the wing bolts (D). there are guides to
ensure the correct positioning and orientation of the caster plate.
Return the radiator to the correct orientation so it rests on the
castors. The product is now ready for use.
POSITIONING THE HEATER
Select the position for the heater ensuring there is clearance
from any furniture and fittings of at least 300mm above the
heater and 150mm each side and 300mm from the control and
end panel. We recommend maximising the clearance where
possible.

GENERAL
The radiator is designed for operation on an AC electricity
supply, and is suitable for use in domestic dwellings and similar
indoor locations.
The radiator is fitted with castors and a handle for ease of
movement. A rotary selector switch provide the ability to
choose an available heat output and an adjustable thermostat
enables the room temperature to be controlled accordingly. It
is supplied with a cord and plug and is ready for use once the
castors have been correctly fitted.

Operation

IMPORTANT - OBJECTS OR CLOTHING MUST NOT BE
PLACED ON THIS HEATER.
Before using the heater ensure that all warnings and instructions
have been read carefully.
Once the castors have been fitted, to activate the heater
simply plug it in. Neon indicating lights (i, see Fig 2) located at
the controls area will illuminate when the appliance is plugged
into the mains. This indicates the appliance is energised and
ready for use.
CONTROLS (See Fig.2 &3)
Thermostat (T)
The Thermostat controls the heat output according to the room
temperature. This ensures that the heater will not produce heat
unnecessarily when the room is warm. To set the temperature
you require, turn the thermostat knob clockwise until the
required setting is reached. Alternatively to heat a cold room
quickly, turn the thermostat knob up fully. When the room
has reached the desired temperature, turn the thermostat
knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat just clicks off. The
heater will now automatically operate at this temperature. The
thermostat also has a frost protection setting marked '
This setting is useful in areas such as garages, to prevent frost
damage. If the thermostat is set to its minimum setting '
the heater will cycle on and off to maintain a temperature of
approximately 5° to help protect against frost.
Note – Should the heater fail to come on when the thermostat
is at a low setting, this may be due to the room temperature
