WARNING :
The heater is designed and approved for use as a construction heater in accordance with Standard
ANSI Z83,7 CGA 2.14.
CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL FIRE SAFETY AUTHORITY IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT
APPLICATIONS.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases and heat producing products in specific
applications.Your local authority can advise you about these.
WARNING :
This heater can be washed, provided that:
A. The heater is disconnected from the electrical supply.
B. All access panels are securely clos
C. Water spray nozzle shall not discharge within 6 feet of the heater.
D. The heater is not reconnected to electrical supply until thoroughly dried.
Improper cleaning of the heater can cause severe personal injury or property damage due to water
and/or cleaning solutions:
A. In electrical components, connections and wires causing electrical shocks or component
failure.
B. On gas control components causing corrosion which can result in gas leaks and fire or
explosion from the leak.The hose assembly must be protected from the traffic, building
materials and contact with hot surfaces both during use andwhile in storage.
ed.
WARNING :
Proper gas supply must be provided to the inlet of the appliance.
Refer to rating plate for proper gas supply pressure.
Gas pressure in excess of maximum inlet pressure specified at the appliance inlet can cause fire or
explosions, leading to serious injury, death, building damage or loss of lives
Likewise, gas pressure below the minimum inlet pressure specified at the appliance inlet may cause
improper combustion,leading to asphyxation, carbon monoxide poisoning and therefore serious
injury or death to humans and livestock.
Position heater properly before use.
For either indoor or outdoor use adequate ventilation must be provided.
Minimum clearance from combustible materials and propane containers: 10 ft.
Do not operate heater with panels removed.
Not for use
To avoid injury from moving parts, disconnect all electrical power to equipment before opening
doors or removing panels.

DESCRIPTION
The hot air generator is designed for heating medium and large
ventilated premises, for which a fixed or mobile heating system is
required.
Heater is to be run on heating with natural gas or L.P.G. according
to gas supply pressures that must be in conformity with the national
laws.
Gases to be used are indicated in Tab. I together with the supply
pressures, the regulation of the gas valves group (burner pressure)
and gas flow.
Hea
ter is supplied after a complete functional test and it’s therefore
prearranged for one of the working gas indicated in Tab. I: an
adhesive label applied on the gas selector valve (a) indicates the
selected gas.
To change the type of gas, follow the detailed instructions
indicated in section “CHANGING TYPE OF GAS”.
The heater is of the direct combustion type. The air is heated by
the energy developed during combustion and then conveyed to the
environment to be heated together with the combustion produ
thus making available 100% of the thermal power produced. The
environment must be suitably ventilated in order to ensure adequate
air circu-lation.
In the event of serious malfunction various safety devices
(electronic flame control unit, overheating thermostat, air pressure
switch) trigger turning off the heater.
The electronic flame control unit monitors if the flame is irregular or
goes out, the safety thermostat triggers when the temperature in the
combustion chambe
switch will cut in if the airflow is insufficient.
In each of the said cases the unit stops according to the procedure
described in “OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS”.
In each of the said cases the lamp (8) will light up and the heater
will stop working. The heater can be restarted only by pressing the
reset button (8). Nonetheless, the cause that triggered the safety
device should always be carefully analyzed and resolved before
restarting the

GENERAL ADVICES
Installation, setting and use of the heater must be effected in
accordance with the applicable regulations and laws relating to
machine use.
WARNING :
Check with your local fire safety authority if you have
questions about applications
• Make sure heater is inspected before each use, and at least
annually by a qualified service person.
• After use make sure the disconnecting switch is off.
When using any type of heater it is obligatory:
• not to exceed the maximum level of heat output of the furnace
(“TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION TABLE”);
• to make sure that there is adeguate air circulation and air supp
to the heater and that nothing is obstructing the aspiration and
expulsion of air; movement of air may be obstructed in various
ways including placing covers or other objects on the heater or
positioning the heater too near a wall or other large object. If the
airflow is not adequate, the combustion chamber will overheat
and the overheat thermostat will turn the burner off
(“OBSERVED FAULTS, CAUSES AND REMEDIES”).

• Fully unscrew the fitting connecting the gas hose
pipe to the heater;
• Wait for the heater to cool down.
The hot air generators with wheels must be wheeled.
MAINTENANCE
To regulate operation of the unit, the fans, combustion chamber
and the burner must be at least annually inspected and periodically
cleaned by a qualified service pe
rson.
WARNING :
Before performing any maintenance operation:
• Stop the machine as indicated in the “STOP”

The heater can be restarted only by pressing the reset button (8).
Nonetheless, the cause that triggered the safety device should
always be carefully analyzed and resolved before restarting the
generator (cfr.“FAULTS, CAUSES AND REMEDIES”).
WARNING :
Do not direct jets of compressed air towards the air
pressure points near the main fan: the air pressure
switch could be permanently damaged.
Cleaning of the burner shall be regularly performed by qualified
service person. To access the burner, remove the flame guard panel
of combustuion chamber (front side) and clean carefully inside the
combustion chamber and the whole burner head and electrode
WARNING
Operating the heater without the flame guard panel of combustuion
chamber (4) can cause the flame to work with risk to the health of
exposed persons (because of formation of carbon monoxide, CO)
and constituting a danger for the environment.
