1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY. F
You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and all
electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety
devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an RCD
(Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD together with portable products that are
plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a professional electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current
Device by contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on a business premises, to be tested by
a qualified Electrician at least once a year by using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance,
and the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power
supply. See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage,
especially power connections, to ensure that none are loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply
to be used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13Amp plug may require
a fuse smaller than 13Amps for certain products (subject to 1.1.10. below) see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead. Products such as
welders must not be pulled or carried by their output cables.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired by
a qualified Electrician. A U.K. 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted. In case of damage, cut off
and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(UK only - see diagram at right). Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
After wiring, check there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected and that the wire restraint is tight.
Double insulated products are often fitted with live (BROWN) and neutral (BLUE) wires only. Double insulated products are always marked with
this symbol.
1.1.10. Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD
fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The section of the cable on the cable
reel is important. We recommend that at least 1.5mm
suitable for this product and for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm
1.2 GENERAL SAFETY
! Check that the heater is in sound condition and good working order. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts.
! Use recommended parts only. Non recommended parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
! Only use paraffin or diesel to fuel your heater in accordance with instructions contained in this manual.
F WARNING! Only use heater in well ventilated areas. Ensure continuous ventilation is provided to the heater operating area. Allow at least
0.03sqft/1000Btu/h proportioned according to the thermal power of the appliance. This should be divided equally between floor and high
level. A ventilation opening must run to the outside of the premises where the heater is to be operated. If your operating area has no direct
access to clean fresh air we recommend you run a large gauge ducting flue from the outside of the building to the back of the heater in
order to provide a clean air intake. For more details see chapter 4.
! Keep the heater a minimum of 3 meters from any combustible materials (i.e. wooden items, cloth, plastics, paper, etc).
! Maintain a minimum distance of 50cm from non combustible items (i.e. brick, steel, concrete, etc).
! Before each use check that the heater air inlet and outlet is not obstructed or blocked.
! Check the colour of the dome at the heater outlet to ensure that optimum heat output is maintained. (see chapter xx).
F WARNING! DO NOT use the heater near flammable material, liquids, solids, gases or compressed gas cylinders and the like.
% DO NOT use heater in closed rooms, living areas, basements or below ground level.
% DO NOT operate the heater without its cover.
% DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the heater.
% DO NOT use an external fuel tank. Only use that which is part of the heater.
% DO NOT leave the heater unattended when in use. Switch the heater off and unplug from the mains before leaving working area.
% DO NOT stand or place any object less than 3mtrs distance from the heater’s output.
% DO NOT obstruct the air inlet and outlet sections of the heater.
% DO NOT operate the heater when you are tired, under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
% DO NOT over fill the fuel container. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
% DO NOT touch the heater outlet end or dome when first switched off as it is very hot and will take time to cool.
