Carbon monoxide poisoning can be fatal!
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: The early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to
those of the flu, such as headache, dizziness, and nausea. If you notice these
symptoms, it could be a sign that your heater is not working correctly. Go outside
immediately! Have your heater checked! Some people are more susceptible to carbon
monoxide than others: e.g., pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease or
anaemia, people under the influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes. Make sure
that you have read and understood all warnings. Keep these instructions for future
reference. It is your guide to the safe and proper operation of this heater.
Use only diesel to avoid the risk of fire and explosion. Never use gasoline, naphtha, paint
solvents, alcohol, or other highly flammable fuels.
Fuel:
Personnel involved in fuel refilling must be trained and thoroughly familiar with the
manufacturer's instructions and applicable guidelines for safe heater refilling. Only diesel
fuel may be used. Any flame, including the pilot light, must be extinguished to allow the
heater to cool before refilling with fuel.
All fuel lines and connections must be checked for leaks while fuel is being filled. Any
leaks must be repaired before the heater is put back into operation.
Do not store more than the daily amount of fuel inside buildings near the heater. All fuel
storage facilities must have a minimum distance of 7m from heaters, burners, welding
equipment, and similar ignition sources (except the fuel tank integrated into the heater).
If possible, fuel storage should be limited to areas where the floor construction prevents
the accumulation of fuel spillage, and lower fire sources cannot ignite fuel. Fuel storage
must be following local government regulations.
General:
Never operate the heater near gasoline, paint solvents, or other highly flammable
vapours.
Follow all local rules and regulations for the use of this heater.
Heaters that are operated near cover mats, tent canvas, or other roofing materials must
be placed at a safe distance from these materials. The recommended minimum distance
is 3.5m. It is also recommended that fireproof roofing materials are used. The roofing
materials must be securely fastened to protect them from the ignition and to prevent
them from touching or tipping over the heater in gusts of wind.
Use only in well-ventilated rooms. Before the operation, make sure that per 100,000
BTU/hour heat output, there is a ventilation opening of at least 2800cm² to the fresh
outside air.
Use only in places where no flammable vapours or high dust content is present.
Only operate under the voltage and frequency specified on the type plate.
Always use a properly grounded extension cable with a three-pin plug.
To avoid fire hazard, the hot or operating heater must be placed on a safe, level surface.
The heater must be moved or stored in a horizontal position to prevent fuel spillage.
Keep the customer and pets away from the heater.

Disconnect the plug from the socket when the heater is not in operation.
Never use the heater in living rooms or bedrooms.
Never block the air inlet (rear) or the air outlet (front) of the heater.
Never move, operate, fill with fuel, or service the hot, operating, or mains connected
heater.
CAUTION:
Use only diesel to avoid the risk of fire or explosion.
The use as a heating source for events and festivities, as well as the operation in
stables, is strictly prohibited.
Conduct in an emergency:
Initiate first aid measures appropriate to the injury and request qualified medical
assistance as soon as possible. Protect the injured person from further damage and keep
him or her sedated.
In case of an accident, a first-aid kit, according to DIN 13164, should always be
available at the workplace. Any material removed from the first-aid kit must be refilled
immediately.
If you request assistance, please provide the following information:
1. Place of the accident
2. Type of accident
3. Number of injured
4. Nature of the injuries
Disposal:
The disposal instructions result from the pictograms on the device or packaging. A
description of the individual meanings can be found in the chapter "Symbols."
Disposal of transport packaging:
The packaging protects the device from damage in transit. As a rule, the packaging
materials are selected according to environmentally friendly and disposal aspects and
can therefore be recycled. Returning the packaging to the material cycle saves raw
materials and reduces the amount of waste. Packaging components (e.g., foils,
polystyrene) can be dangerous for children. There is a danger of suffocation! Keep the
packaging parts out of reach of children and dispose of them as soon as possible.
Qualification:
Apart from detailed instruction by a competent person, no special qualification is
required for the use of the device.
Minimum age:
The product is intended for use by persons over 16 years of age.
If the product is to be used by children over 8 years of age or by persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental abilities or lack of experience and knowledge, you must be
supervised or instructed regarding the safe use of the device and understand the
resulting dangers. Children must not play with the device. Children must not perform

Original User Manual FUXTEC FX-DH116_rev02

cleaning and user maintenance without supervision.
Training:
The use of the device only requires appropriate instruction by a competent person or the
user manual. Special training is not necessary.
3. Intended use
The DH series oil burners are to be used exclusively for indirect heating and drying in
well-ventilated rooms or dry outdoor areas, at a safe distance from burning materials as
well as people and living beings. Make sure that the surface is stable and horizontal
during operation. Only diesel is permitted as fuel.
Safety devices:
The oil heating burner is equipped with an electronic flame monitoring system. If one or
more malfunctions occur, this will cause the device to stop. If the oil burner overheats,
an overheating thermostat will intervene and stop the fuel supply; the thermostat will
reset itself when the temperature of the combustion chamber has fallen to the maximum
permitted value. Before restarting the oil burner, the cause of overheating must be
found and eliminated (e.g., clogging of the air intake or outlet or stoppage of the fan).
To restart the device, follow the instructions in the "Startup" section.
