GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to figures on page 11 to 15
Note: If unit is to be installed on a 25 degree tilt refer to page 11 for this type of installation.
1)
Measure and locate holes to be drilled for mounting brackets into overhead beams or
support. The PH-40, PH-40 HO and PH-75 HO have two (2) mounting locations, one at each
end. The PH-50, 75, and 80 have a third located in the center of the unit. The PH-100 has 4
and the PH-125 has 5.

FOR RIDGID INSTALLATION: READ WARNING ON PAGE 9 FIRST.
When installing fasteners such as bolts, inserts, threaded rod, etc, it is suggested that the
fastener(s) are no less than 3/8 inch (.9525 cm) in diameter (two (2) per hanging point) and
must penetrate and be secured in the overhead material in such a way that the unit will not
be dislodged from the mounting location during normal use and operation, including wind
load. This is the responsibility of the installing contractor and if in doubt, they shall contact the
manufacturer of the fastener chosen to verify its use.
(See WARNING on page 9)
3)
Lift and support preassembled unit in a safe manner, and locate where heater is to be installed.
