1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and
any other connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of
appropriate safety devices. A residual current circuit Breaker (rccB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also
recommend that a residual current Device (rcD) is used. It is particularly important to use an rcD with portable products that are
plugged into a supply which is not protected by an rccB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a residual
current Device by contacting your sealey stockist.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance tester (PAt), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances
and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. see 1.1.1. and 1.1.2.
and use a Portable Appliance tester.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all
connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply
to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty
item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When a Bs 1363/A uK 3 pin plug is
damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.
fit a new plug according to the following instructions (uK only).
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the cable outer insulation
extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only. to
rewire, connect the wires as indicated above.
DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.
1.1.10. Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified electrician to ensure
that a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an industrial round pin plug and socket
with your electrician.
1.1.11. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an rcD fitted is preferred since any appliance
plugged into it will be protected. the cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the
capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use
of 2.5mm² section cable.
1.2. GENERAL SAFETY
DANGER! risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. failure to provide proper ventilation could result in serious illness or death.
check that the heater is in sound condition and good working order. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts.
use recommended parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
only use paraffin, diesel or kerosene to fuel this heater, in accordance with instructions contained in this manual.
Locate heater on a level and stable surface.
WARNING! only use heater in well ventilated areas. Ensure continuous ventilation is provided to the heater operating area via windows
and doors etc. If people are not required to be present in the heated area, the volume of air to be heated (mtr³)/heat output (kW) ratio
must be at least 10:1 and people must be advised not to remain in the heated area for prolonged periods. If people are required to be
present in the heated area, the volume of air to be heated (mtr³)/heat output (kW) ratio must be at least 30:1. Ventilation must be to the
outside of the premises in which the heater is to be operated. the total open area (mtr²) must be at least 0.003 times the total heat output
(kW). the volume concentration of oxygen (o²) in the heated room, must always remain above 17%.
WARNING! DO NOT use the heater near flammable material, liquids, solids, gases or compressed gas cylinders etc.
DO NOT stand or place any object less than 3mtr from the heater output and keep the heater a minimum of 2mtr from any walls or
objects.
DO NOT use the heater in closed rooms, living areas, basements or below ground level.
DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the heater and DO NOT operate the heater without the safety guard.

DO NOT move or handle the heater when hot, without wearing protective gloves. never move the heater whilst it is operating.
DO NOT leave the heater unattended for prolonged periods of time when in use. switch the heater off and unplug from the mains
before leaving work area.
DO NOT fill the fuel tank whilst the heater is running or still hot. DO NOT over-fill the fuel container. Wipe up any spilt fuel immediately.
DO NOT obstruct the air inlet (rear) and air outlet (front) of the heater and DO NOT use duct work in front or at the rear of the heater.
DO NOT allow children or animals near the heater when in use, or whilst still hot.
WARNING! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT expose the heater to water spray, rain, dripping water or wind.
DO NOT operate the heater when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.

5. OPERATING CONDITIONS
5.1. Principles of Operation
5.1.1. Fuel and Air System: this heater is equipped with an oil pump that operates from an electric motor. the pump forces oil from the fuel
tank, drawing fuel to the nozzle in the burner head. Air also passes through the nozzle via a fan and ducting where it mixes with the fuel,
sprayed into the combustion chamber as a fine mist where it is super-heated and forced out the front of the chamber.
5.1.2. Quick-Fire Ignition: A transformer sends high voltage to a two pronged spark plug. the spark ignites the fuel/air mixture as it is sprayed
into the combustion chamber.
5.1.3. Electrical System Protection: the heater’s electrical system is protected by a circuit breaker that protects the system components from
damage. If the heater fails, check the fuse first, and replace if necessary.
5.1.4. Flame Sensor: the heater uses a photocell to see the flame in the combustion chamber. should the flame extinguish, the sensor will stop
electrical current and the heater will shut off.
5.2. Fuel: the heater operates with paraffin, kerosene or diesel fuel. DO NOT use any other type of fuel.
5.3. When used in the construction or agricultural industries ensure that the safety regulations in force are adhered to with regard to distances
from animals, flammable materials and any other specified substances.
WARNING! Air contaminants taken into the heater may affect the heat output, damage the unit and may cause health problems.
Example: Bodyshop filler dust/paint overspray will damage the motor bearing, clog the filter and compressor and contaminate
the combustion chamber causing flame flutter and health hazards. Please note that any parts damaged by filler dust/paint over
spray will not be covered by warranty. Additionally, a cleaning charge will be made for any heaters damaged by filler dust/paint
over spray.
5.4. Ventilation:
WARNING! only use the heater in well ventilated areas. careful consideration must be given to the placing of the heater to provide safe
and comfortable heating. Ensure continuous ventilation is provided to the heater operating area. A ventilation opening must run to the
outside of the premises in which the heater is to be operated.
The heater requires a fresh air opening of at least 2800cm².
for Example:
- A two car garage door should be open at least 11cm.
- A single car garage door should be open at least 16cm.
- two 76cm windows should be open at least 20cm.
