MAINTENANCE

Allow the heater to cool down for at least 15 minutes after switching off, before
performing any maintenance tasks.

Periodically.

• Disconnect from the mains supply, remove the guard and wipe the reflectors
with a clean dry cloth. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. Take care NOT to touch
the tube with your fingers.

• Inspect the mains cable for damage. Heat damage will cause the cable to
stiffen and crack. If this is found, have the cable replaced (refer to your CLARKE
dealer), check cable routing and ensure it is well away from the heat source.

IR Halogen Tube Replacement

Tubes are long lasting and should not need replacing under normal circumstances.
Should this become necessary however , the method of replacement is as follows:

1. Ensure the heater is disconnecterd from the mains supply, then remove the
guard, followed by both side reflectors, each of which is secured with two
screws.

2. Remove the back panel.

3. Disconnect the tube leads from the appropriate switch, by carefully pulling
off the spade connectors.

4. Carefully unclip the tube from its holders at each end, then withdraw the
tube, with leads, from the front of the heater.

5. Replace in the reverse order ensuring you DO NOT touch the tube itself.
Protect the tube with a cloth or paper - your fingers should not come into
contact with it.

IMPORTANT

IF IN ANY DOUBT, ALWAYS CONSULT A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT

CARRY OUT ANY REPAIRS YOURSELF.

ASSEMBLY

A. Devil 160

First, decide where the heater is to be located, ensuring it is at least 25cm (10”)
from a ceiling and 1 metre from the corner of a room. Also take into account any
furniture, draperies or any other flammable or heat sensitive materials or objects,
ensuring they are at least 2 metres from the heater. Finally ensure a suitable
electrical supply is close to hand (see Safety Precautions).

Mark out the mounting holes on the wall using the mounting bracket as a template. Drill
and plug the wall then screw on the bracket firmly. Mount the heater on the wall bracket
and connect the power cable to the supply (see Electrical Connections). Alternatively
provision is made to mount the bracket on to a support, such as a tripod etc.

B. Devil 360P

Fit the feet, complete with castors to the
underside of the heater using the four large
knob head screws provided.

IMPORTANT!

When using the heater, the angle of tilt MUST NOT exceed 45 degrees,

as this could lead to the heater overheating. NEVER mount the heater

pointing vertically downwards

Attach the handle to the sides of the main body using
the four countersunk Hex. socket head screws provided
together with the four plastic semi-circular supports
located between the tube and the heater body.

Connect the mains cable to a suitable supply in
accordance with the Electricall Connection
instructions given previously.

C. Devil 365P

Attach the frame to the heater body in the
manner shown in the drawing opposite, with
the two plastic saddle supports located between
the tube and the heater body, then connect
the mains cable to a suitable supply in
accordance with the Electrical Connection
instructions given previously.
