Fitting the castors:
NB: The heater comes shipped with castors removed and must not be used without them or in any other
position other than upright with the controls facing upwards.
1. Place the radiator body upside down on a flat, stable surface ensuring it cannot be scratched or damaged.
2. Unscrew the wing nuts from the U-shaped bolts provided and attach the U-shaped bolt to the U-facing flange
between the first and second fins (near the front cover).
3. To attach the castor mounting plate to the radiator body, insert the threaded ends of the U bolt into the centre
holes on the castor mounting plate. Ensure the mounting plate is the correct way up with the chamfered edges
facing upwards towards the radiator.
4. Screw the wing nuts back onto the U bolt and fasten properly making sure not to overtighten which can cause
damage to the radiator flange.
5. Unscrew the spherical nuts from the castors, align the shaft with the outer holes of the castor mounting plate and
screw on the spherical nut.
6. Repeat points 2, 3, 4 and 5 for mounting of the rear castors to the rear of the radiator, ensuring you fit them
between the end two fins.
