Make sure to disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before any
servicing is started. Always allow the heater to cool completely.
Do not pour water on or submerge any portion of heater in water
or any other liquid.
Interior and Exterior:
1. Never use any harsh or abrasive cleaners on the heater.
2. Clean exterior with a soft damp cloth and mild detergent.
3. To clean interior, first remove the heater from the mounting
bracket.
(See installation instructions)
Then remove the screw in the center bottom of the grille. Swing
grille open - be sure to reattach the grille with the screw before
operating heater again.
CLEANING
1. Your heater is equipped with rotating arms
at each end of the unit. To conserve space in
shipment these arms are in line with the
heater body and must be repositioned before
installation. With your heater laying face
down, rotate each arm slowly upward until
they are perpendicular to the body. For safety
reasons, once rotated, the arms cannot be
returned to their original position.
2. Holding the heater by the arms (one in
each hand) slide the arms onto the mounting
bracket until it locks into place.
3. Plug the heater into a 120V A.C. grounded
outlet. Keep the cord away from the front of
the heater. Use of an extension cord is not
recommended, if an extension cord must be
used, it must be at least 14 AWG wire size
and have a minimum rating of 1875 watts.
4. Adjust the angle and rotation of the heater
to direct the heat where needed.
CAUTION: Do not adjust the heater
while it is operating. The metal
parts of the housing get very hot
and can cause a burn. Always turn
your heater off and allow time for
it to cool before adjusting.
ATTACHING HEATER TO
MOUNTING BRACKET
REMOVING HEATER
FROM MOUNTING
BRACKET
1. Unplug heater and allow to cool.
2. Push-in the two tabs on the outside of each
arm.
3. Grasp both arms and simultaneously pull
the unit down while holding the tabs in.
WARNING: Do not attempt to remove the
heater one arm at a time as this could cause
damage to the heater cabinet.
NOTE: the rotating arms on this heater will
not fold flat with the body of the heater for
safety reasons. Attempting to fold this heater
flat could cause damage to the heater housing.
INSTALLING A MOUNTING BOARD
(if required)
If your joists are more that 18" apart, or you have chosen to mount the heater at an angle to
the joists as in a corner (using the key slots instead of the center swivel bolt hole), or to a
suspended ceiling, a mounting board will be needed to provide a surface to attach the
mounting bracket (Fig. D). The mounting board should be a board measuring
approximately 1" thick by 2" wide and 18" in length or long enough to span two or more
joists (For Suspended Ceiling installations make the length 23.75" exactly).
For swivel or key slot installations, securely bolt or screw the mounting board into desired
position. Continue with the installation following the instructions for the desired heater
bracket mounting installation.

1. Locate a desired position on your ceiling
in the area to be warmed. (Heater should be
at least 36" away from the nearest wall or
other combustible material.) The mounting
bracket may be attached to a single joist
(Fig. B) or span across two joists (Fig. C).
Failure to mount heater to joists can result in
injury and or fire hazards.
2. If you are installing the
bracket to an unfinished ceiling
with exposed joists, proceed to
step 3. On a finished ceiling the joists are
hidden behind the ceiling dry wall or plaster.
You must locate and mark the location of the
center of the joists in the mounting area.
Joists are typically 1 1/2" wide and 16" or
18" apart. They usually run parallel with the
narrow dimension of the room. A “Stud
Finder” available at most hardware stores
may help in locating the center of these
hidden joists.
3. Using the mounting bracket as a template,
line up one of the key slots at each end of the
bracket with one or two joists and mark the
slotted openings. If you cannot line up the
holes in the bracket with the joists you will
have to use other mounting methods.
See “Swivel Mounting” or
“Installing a Mounting Board.”
4. Using a 1/8" drill bit, drill a hole in the
center of each marked key slot. Install the
two screws provided leaving about 1/4"
between the head of the screw and the
mounting surface. Slip the mounting bracket
over the screw heads and slide the bracket to
engage the screws in the slots. Tighten
screws securely.

WARNING: This unit is intended
for use ONLY as a ceiling mounted
heater. Mounting on a wall or
sloping surface such as a roof is
a risk of fire due to possible
overheating of the unit or igniting
nearby combustible materials.
1. Locate a desired position on your
ceiling in the area to be warmed. (Heater
should be at least 36" away from the
nearest wall or other combustible
material.) The mounting bracket must be
attached to a joist. If your ceiling is
finished you must first find the joist and
mark the location on the ceiling.
2. Drill a 1/8" hole into the joist. Using
the center hole in the mounting bracket
(Fig. A), pass the bolt through the hole
and place the washer on the bolt. Raise
the assembly to the drilled joist hole and
insert the bolt into the hole. Using a
socket wrench, tighten the bolt until the
bracket is snug against the ceiling.
CAUTION - RISK OF FIRE:
Minimum mounting distance
of 24 inches from walls or
combustible materials.
