Correct plugs and outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
2. Do not abuse the electrical cable. Never use the cable for pulling or
unplugging the heater. Keep the cable away from sources of heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk
of electric shock.
3. Keep the mains cable well away from machines and ensure an adequate
electrical supply is close at hand so that the operation is not restricted by
the length of the cable.
4. ALWAYS disconnect from the mains supply before moving the heater, or
performing any cleaning or maintenance tasks.
5. Inspect the mains cable regularly for signs of damage. DO NOT use if it is
damaged, and ALWAYS keep it away from the source of heat.
6. Check the heater for damage before use. DO NOT use if the heater tubes
are damaged or broken. Any damage should be properly repaired or the
part replaced. If in doubt, DO NOT use. Consult your local Clarke dealer.
SERVICE & REPAIRS
1. If necessary, have your heater repaired by a qualified person using
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
appliance is maintained.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
DEVIL 370P & 370SP HEATER UNITS
The 370 models are provided with a 13 amp BS 1363 plug, fitted with a 13amp
fuse and MUST be connected to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply,
preferably through a suitably fused isolator switch.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead should be wired up in accordance
with the following colour code:
Green & Yellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
BrowN - Live
As the colours of the flexible cable of this appliance may not correspond with
the coloured markings identifying terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
plug terminal marked with a letter E or Earth symbol
• or coloured GREEN or GREEN & YELLOW.
• Connect the BROWN coloured cord to the plug terminal marked a
letter “L” or coloured RED
• Connect the BLUE coloured cord to the plug terminal marked a
letter “N” or coloured BLACK.
If this appliance is found to be fitted with a plug which is moulded on to the
electric cable (i.e. non-rewireable) please note:
1. The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a
danger of electric shock if it is subsequently inserted into a socket outlet.
2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
3. Should you wish to replace a detachable fuse carrier, ensure that the
correct replacement is used (as indicated by marking or colour code).
4. Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local Clarke dealer
or most electrical stockists.
FUSE RATING
The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating and this
replacement must be ASTA approved to BS1362.
We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply
via a Residual Current Device (RCD).
DEVIL 371P & 371SP HEATER UNITS
The 371 models MUST be connected to a 110 Volt, 1 phase 50Hz supply
through a suitably fused isolator switch. On no account must a 230V, 13amp
(BS1363) plug be used.
NOTE: If a portable 110V transformer is used, make sure it has a rated
capacity sufficient to take the load of the heater.
In the event that the heater is hard wired into the electrical system, it must be
carried out in accordance with IEE regulations.
The user should purchase a suitable connecting lead which is compatible with
the appliance socket. A length of 2-3 metres is recommended as giving
mobility to the heater but without becoming a trip hazard.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt any electrical
repairs yourself.

3. Connect the mains cable to a suitable power supply.
4. Use the on/off switches to turn on either one, or both heating elements.
IMPORTANT: When using the SP model heaters, the angle of tilt MUST NOT
exceed 45 degrees downwards, as this could lead to the heater
overheating. NEVER position the heater pointing vertically downwards.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
If the heater has been used, ALWAYS allow it to cool down for at least 15
minutes and disconnect from the mains supply before performing any
maintenance tasks.
PERIODICALLY
• If there is any serious build up of dirt, wipe thoroughly with a damp
cloth. Take care that no moisture enters the heater. Take care NOT
to touch the tubes with your fingers.
• Inspect the mains cable for damage. Undue heat will cause the
cable to stiffen and crack. If this is found, have the cable replaced.
Check cable routing and ensure it is well away from the heat source.
• Ensure heating lamps are clear of dust (use compressed air to clean
if possible. (ALWAYS wear a dust mask if performing this operation)
• Refer to your CLARKE dealer if internal maintenance is required.
• When storing the heater, allow it to cool down, then place it in its
packing box for storage in a dry, ventilated place.
FITTING/ REPLACING LAMPS
Before attempting to fit/replace halogen lamps, ensure the heater is switched
off and isolated from the main electrical supply by removing the plug from the
socket.
NEVER handle the heater lamps with bare hands. ALWAYS handle using either
a soft clean glove or a piece of soft clean cloth wrapped around the lamp.
1. Loosen and remove the two pozidrive screws securing the wire guard,
remove the guard and store removed parts safely.
2. To remove lamp, grasp lamp and gently but firmly push it to one end of the
heater. The lamp holders are spring loaded and will allow the lamp
sufficient movement to clear the opposite holder.
3. Remove the lamp and dispose of, according to local regulations.
4. Fit new halogen lamp in reverse order, repeat procedure for second tube.
5. Replace the guard using the screws removed earlier.
The heater is now ready for use again & may be plugged in and switched on.
