Safety & Guidance Notes
All wiring to be in accordance with the current I.E.E Regulations, or the appropriate standards
of your country and MUST be installed by a suitably qualified person.
Ensure that the mains supply (Voltage, Frequency, and phase) complies with the rating label.

Excessive moisture, excessive dust or fibres, grease or oil laden air, corrosive or flammable
atmospheres.
DO NOT use this appliance in bathrooms

DO NOT cover or partially cover the appliance. The tangential fan MUST have free air flow at
all times, i.e. do not mount close to cupboards, etc.
Children, the elderly and the infirm may not always be aware of the danger involved in using
electrical appliances. Never allow this appliance to be used without supervision.
Mounting
When mounted over a standard shop doorway the unit should be fitted as low as possible and
not more than 2.3 meters from ground level. A single unit will provide reasonable coverage
for a one metre doorway, and for wider doorways units can be mounted end to end.
The unit should be positioned so that the airflow is not obstructed by any part of the
doorframe.
When “ceiling” mounted, the discharge grille must protrude through the false ceiling as
shown. All the slots must be below the ceiling line. Provision must be made, in the void
above the false ceiling, for an adequate supply of air to the inlet side of the unit (see diagram
below and right).
Installation
Carefully unpack the unit and remove the top cover
fixing screws.
The heater may be mounted in three alternative
ways:-
1. Direct to a suitable wall or bearer by four No.8
wood screws through the holes provided in the back of the
unit casing. Keyhole slots are provided for the top two
fixings.
2. Suspended by 20mm conduit through the holes
provided in the top of the unit.
3. Suspended by chains through the holes
Provided in the top of the unit.

Operation
The right hand switch connects the mains
supply
To the fan motor (giving a cool airflow) and
Energises the heat control switches.
Heat control (6kW Warmair)
When the centre switch (marked with a single
bar) is depressed the heat output is 3kW.
When the left-hand switch (marked with a
single bar) is depressed the heat output is
3kW. When both switches are depressed the
heat output is 6kW.
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS ISOLATE THE MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE INSTALLATION,
SERVICING OR MAINTENANCE.
To obtain the best results from your heater it is necessary to avoid the build up of dust and
dirt within the unit and on the air inlet and discharge grilles. For this reason regular cleaning
is necessary, paying particular attention to the removal of dirt build up on the rotor blades.
A single drop of light oil should be applied to the motor bearing from time to time.
Protection (Thermal cut-out)
The units are protected in the event of fan failure, or an obstruction of the free airflow, by
thermal PTC self hold cut-outs. Having tripped, the PTC cut-out remains open, effectively
switching off the heating elements, as long as mains power is available inside the appliance.
To reset the PTC self-hold cut-out proceed as follows:-
DO NOT ADJUST BY HAND ANY COMPONENTS
1. The cut-out is reset by switching OFF the mains power to the heater.
2. Allow the heater to cool for 20 minutes.
3. Restart, Switch ON the heater. If the cut-out trips again consult a qualified electrician.
