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 ammable
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) Heater plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in anyway. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) heaters. Unmodied 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) If operating a heater in a damp location is unavoildable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of a 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 inuence 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 losse clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair. clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can get sucked into
the moving parts of the heater.

4. FUEL GASES & VENTILATION
FUEL GASES
GUIDELINES OF FUEL GASES:
This heater is intended for the use of temporary heating
of buildings under construction, alteration or repairing.
There may also be other local standards or regulations
governing the use of fuel gases and heating products
of which you can get advice from your relevant
local authority. Propane and butane belong to the
odourless fuel gases family. Normally gas suppliers will
add an odour making agent to help you detect a gas
leakage. However, the odor added can fade over
time. Fuel gases maybe present even though no odor
exists. LPG Supplied in Australia is designed to have an
odour. Do not use gas supply if the gas is unodourised.
These heaters are intended for use with Propane (I3P)
or Butane/Propane mixes (I3B/P). Any othe fuel gas
is considered misuse and dangerous. To check the
leakage of propane/butane please use a professional
gas leakage detector or simply with soap and water
solution. NEVER check with a ame! Propane and
butane are heavier than air. If there is a leakage, it sinks
to the lowest possible level, collecting there with the
surrounding air, forming a potentially explosive mixture.
It is prohibited to use these gas heaters in high rise ats,
bathrooms, basesments or below ground level.
VENTILATION
WARNING:
Be sure that the heater is only ever used with correct
ventilation. Make sure that no object obstructs the fan
air intake and outlet. (Fig 2.)
OXYGEN DEPLETION:
The combustion of propane will consume a lot
of oxygen (of butane even more). The minimum
ventilation required by this heater is 30cm3per
(Megajoule per cubic metre) heat output is strongly
recommended. Never use the heater in an enclosed
space.
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING:
Even though the direct-red system of this heater
operates very close to 100% combustion efciency, it
still generates small amounts of CO. Some people are
more affected by CO than others. The symptoms of CO
sensitivity are headches, dizziness, burning eyes and
nose, nausea, dry mouth or sore throat etc. Be sure to
follow advice about ventilation.

4. FUEL GASES & VENTILATION 5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARING FOR OPERATION :
Check the heater thoroughly for damage. Do not
use a damaged heater. Be sure the heating area is
adequately ventilated, free of moisture and dust, far
away from any combustible material. Always put the
gas cyclinder behind the heater in a stable position.
Never put the gas cylinder in front of the heater.
(Fig.3).
MINIMUM CLEARANCES:
Minimum distance to combustible materials and other
surfaces (Fig.4)
Side: 0.6m
Top: 1.8m
Front: 2.4m
Check the outlet pressure of the gas regulator and
hose according to the specication on the rating
plate. Use only the supplied regulator and hose
assembley provided with this heater. Using another
regular will make the heater dangerous! Gas hose
should be straight without excessive bending and not
twisted or kinked, ensure all connections are gas tight.
• When connecting to the gas cylinder, ensure the area is ame free to prevent
risk of explosion.
• Never use an open ame to check for leaks. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and
water to all joints. Bubbles forming indicate a leak. Correct all leaks at once.
• The gas connection to the heater has a right hand thread. Ensure the
connection is tight.
• Do not adjust the regulator.
• Tighten connection onto heater with a spanner. Do not over tighten as it can
damage the connection. If not opened slowly, excess-ow check valve on gas
cylinder may stop gas ow, if this happens close gas supply valve and open
again slowly.

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
START
• Connect the plug to the relevant power
source
• Press ON/OFF swtich (A) to ON. Let the motor
fan run at least 30 seconds to check if the fan
work properly and/or to purge any fuel gas left
from the last use.
• With the hose attached to the gas inlet (B),
open the gas valve on the cylinder slowly. Be
sure there is no gas leakage.
• Push in and hold the safety start valve button
(C). Push ignition button (D) repeatedly until
the burner lights.
If the heater does not light within 10 seconds,
wait a minimum 3 minutes before retrying.
• After the burner lights, keep the safety start
valve button depressed for at least 5 seconds
then slowly release and the heater will
continue to operate.
GAS PRESSURE TEST POINT (E)
The cap protects the valve and provides an additional seal. After the cap has
been removed either a test thermometer or a gauge adapter wit hthe proper
pressure gauge can be inserted through the two, self-closing valves in the Pete’s
Plug. Readings are made, adjustments or test can be accomplished and hwne the
probes are withdrawn, the two valves close. The protective cap is then reinstalled.
Tests should be made as qucikly as possible since the valve reseal times is dependent
upon time of insertion and pressure. Slower vavle reseal time can be expected at
lower temperature and lower pressure. Cap retaining straps are standard on all brass
ttings.
STOP (Fig.6)
• To switch of the heater, always
close the gas cylinder valve rst.
• Let the Fan run for at least 2
minutes until the heater is cooled
down.
• Switch off the motor, unplug the
power cord.
• If the heater will not be used
again shortly, disconnect the gas
hose from the heater rst, then
disconnect the hose & regulator
from the valve on the gas cylinder

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Be sure that the valve on the gas cylinder has been shut off rmly before disconnection.
Disconnect cylinder from heater before moving heater. Changing the cylinder, be
sure the atmosphere is ame free. Should there be any gas leakage during operation,
close the gas cylinder valve immediately. Open all windows and doors do not operate
any equipment that may cause a spark (light switches etc) and inform the relevant
emergency services as necessary.
Gas cylinders are to be installed outdoors when not in use or when empty. Refer to AS/
NZS 1596 - storage and handling LP Gas.

6. CLEANING, MAINTENANCE & STORAGE
Regular inspection and cleaning reduces the neccessity for maintenance operations
and will keep your heater in good working condition.
