DO NOT place the heater on combustible or heat sensitive surfaces due to the nature of
WARNING:
infra-red radiant heating the area in front of the heater will also become hot.
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.
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.
WARNING:
Diesel fuel is carcinogenic. Take care when transporting, refuelling and storage of diesel fuel. Always clean up
fuel spills with regard to local legislative requirements.
