SAFETY SYMBOLS
Please read all of the safety and operating instructions carefully before using this
product. The following safety symbols may be found on the product.
Even though this heater operates very close to 100 percent combustion efficiency, it
still produces small amounts of carbon monoxide.
•Carbon Monoxide (CO) is toxic.
•Pregnant women, persons with a heart or lung condition, anemia or under
the influence of alcohol, or those at high altitude, are more likely to be
effected by Carbon Monoxide.
•CO can build up in a confined space and failure to provide adequate
ventilation can be fatal.
The early symptoms of asphyxiation caused by inadequate ventilation are:
•headache•nausea
•dizziness•dry mouth or sore throat
Should anyone show these symptoms, they must GET FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY.
Turn off the heater and have it serviced before using again.
Be sure to follow all warnings in this manual.

MAINS SUPPLY.
Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an
approved BS1363/A plug fitted with a BS1362 7 amp fuse.
If the plug has to be changed because of damage, it must be removed and a
replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must
be discarded safely, as insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard.
WARNING: WIRES IN THE MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:

A dirty air filter will cause an imbalance in the air-fuel mixture. The best indication
that this condition exists is an increase in odour or difficulty getting your heater to
ignite. This heater should never be operated without the filter in place. If required,
clean the filter as follows.
•Make sure that the plug is removed from the power supply before carrying
out any maintenance.
1. Remove the six screws shown and
remove the top cover of the heater.
2. Pull the filter away from the motor.
3. To clean the air intake filter.
•Remove and wash the filter
element with a mild detergent.
•Dry thoroughly and refit.
•Do not oil the filter element. If
your heater is used where there is
considerable dust or dirt.
•Clean as often as necessary (at
least approximately every 500 hrs).
NOTE: If the filter is damaged or extremely dirty, a replacement filter of the same
type should be fitted, this is available from your local CLARKE service
department.
4. Replace the filter cover and secure using the screws removed in step 1.
STORAGE
1. Drain any residual fuel / condensate from the fuel tank.
2. Store the heater in a dry location free from fumes or dust.
