GENERAL SAFETY RULES

1) WORK AREA

1. These heaters are for INDOOR USE ONLY.

2. Do not expose the heater or power cable to rain or wet conditions. Any
water entering the heater will increase the risk of electric shock. DO NOT
use this heater in a bathroom, shower room or any other wet environment.

3. NEVER locate the heater near combustible materials such as curtains,
furniture etc. Allow at least 1 metre distance.

4. DO NOT locate the heater close to an adjacent wall or low ceiling. Allow
a distance of at least 1 metre from a wall or ceiling. Avoid placing the
heater directly below power socket outlets.

5. Take care to ensure that the wire guard cannot be covered.

6. Do not operate heater in explosive atmospheres such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dust such as in a paint spray booth or any
explosive environment.

7. Never stand the heater on a movable vehicle where it could tip over.

8. Do not allow the halogen tubes to become covered with dust which
could become a fire hazard. If used in a dusty workplace it should be
cleaned as described under Cleaning and Maintenance.

9. NEVER touch the halogen tubes for at least 15 minutes after switching off.

10. DO NOT leave the heater unattended.

11. If children are present always use with a fireguard.

12. Store the heater out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with these instructions to operate it.

13. Do not use this heater with a programmable timer used to switch it on
automatically.

14. Use ONLY in an upright position.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. Electrical appliances must match the power outlet. Never modify the plug
in any way. Do not use adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded)
appliances. 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

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.

3) 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.

Additionally, please keep these instructions in a safe place for future
reference.

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:

•

Connect the GREEN & YELLOW coloured cord to the 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.

5

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.

OPERATION

1. Position the heater where required, and lock the castors to prevent the

2. Slacken the locking knobs and rotate the heater body to the required
angle. Tighten the securing knobs on each side to lock into place (SP
models only).

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.

8

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 and may be plugged in and
switched on.
