slots are facing downwards and the brackets face towards the back of the heater (see Pic 1).
Attach the 2 backbone right angled brackets to the backbone using the M4 nuts and washers (see Pic 2)
Securely attach the backbone to the wall using suitable fixings (not supplied) The backbone may be removed once the two
end brackets have been securely mounted in position. It is only required to obtain the correct spacing of the Backbone right
angled brackets. Partially insert M5 screws into the outer two holes in each end of the bracket. Make sure the screw goes all
the way through and the thread is just showing the other side (see Pic 2). The heater with its two end brackets should now be
slotted onto the fixing bracket (see Pic 3). Now tighten up the four end screws and add an additional M5 centre screw and lock
washer into the centre hole at each end of the fixing bracket (see Pic 4). UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST THE

6. MAINTENANCE
Note: Before examining or carrying out any maintenance ensure the air curtain has cooled down and is disconnected from the
mains supply.
The air curtains are intended to operate for many years, problem free. All moving parts are factory lubricated and therefore should
require no service. Maintenance is limited to keeping both the inlet and outlet areas free from any accumulation of dust or any other
foreign materials. This is especially important immediately before the heating season. Any dust build up can be loosened using a
brush and a vacuum cleaner applied to the airways to ensure completed removal of any dust. When the air curtain is first turned on
after cleaning an unusual odour may be noted this is due to the dust particles which inevitably will be disturbed and will be burnt off
from the heating element.
If in any doubt always consult a qualified electrician for advice.
7. AUTO CUT OUT \ FUSE REPLACEMENT
This air curtain is fitted with a semi-automatic safety device to prevent overheating. The device will isolate the heating element
while the fan continues to operate. Should this occur, disconnect the air curtain from the mains supply for a minimum of 5 minutes,
check and remove any foreign materials around the airways. If the air curtain fails to operate or the safety cut out operates again,
turn off the air curtain and contact a qualified electrician.
The Heater is protected by a fuse. The fuse holder is located on the front face of the unit. Should the fuse fail, replace with another
12.5A fuse. If this replacement fuse fails seek professional help.
