5. HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION
5.1 GENERAL HEATER SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate heaters in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Heaters create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a heater. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Heaters plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) heaters. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose heaters to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a heater will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
heater. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a heater outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a heater in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
heater. Do not use a heater while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating heaters may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
connecting to power source.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the heater on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the heater may result in personal injury.
e) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can get sucked into
the in moving parts of the heater.

5. HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION
4) Heater use and care
DO NOT move the heater when it is in operation or when plugged into the mains
supply. Only move heater once it has cooled and it has been unplugged.
a) Use the correct heater for your application. The correct heater will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the heater if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any heater that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the heater accidentally.
d) Store idle heater out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the heater or these instructions to operate the power tool. Heaters are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain heaters. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the heaters operation. If damaged,
have the heater repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
heaters.
g) Use the heater, in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the heater for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your heater serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the heater is maintained.
