HORIZONTAL MOUNTING 

M O U N T I N G  

 

The  heater  must  be  mounted  in  a  horizontal 
(Fig. A)  manner only. 

      

When  mounting  the  heater,  do  not  position  the 
heater at an angle more than 75° and less than 
30°  from  the  mounting  surface  as  shown  in   
Fig. A. 

 

Always  allow  the  heater  to  cool  before            
attempting to reposition/move. Never attempt to 
move the heater while it is switched on! 

 

Observe  the  minimum  safe  distance  between 
the  heater  body  and  inflammable  surfaces  and 
objects when mounting.

 

 

Please  refer  to  Table  1  for  the  recommended 
positioning  of  the  heater.  Do  not  install  the 
heater in a corner!

 

 

Do  not  mount  the  heater  on  plastic  soffits  and 
fascia boards and ensure the mounting surface 
will suitably withstand the radiant heat from the 
heater body. 

 

Keep out of the reach of children.

.  Securely  fasten  the  heater  bracket  to  the 

mounting  surface  using  the  fixing  holes  in  the 
bracket. Please refer to Table 1 for recommended 
positioning of the heater. 
 

2

.  Fix  in  the  required  angular  position  by         

tightening the fixing bolt on the bracket at the rear 
of the heater (Fig. B). 
 

3

. Secure the supply cord to the mounting surface 

with  a  suitable  clip  so  the  cord  is  directed  away 
from the  heater  and  is  not  resting  on the  body  or 
obstructing the air-vents. 
 

Always  isolate  the  heater  from  the  mains   
supply when adjusting the angular position.
