Warning!
If installing the Gold Element, please ensure the gold plated side is facing the aluminium
reflector.
To prepare the heater for element installation:
1.
Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws from both ends of the heater’s protective grille.
2.
Carefully remove the grille from the front of the heater.
3.
Remove the screws securing the alloy element end covers.
4.
Remove the element end covers.
At either end of the heater, there are cables with lugs. For single element heaters, there should be
just one cable at either end. For dual element heaters, there should be two.
5.
Check that the lugs are securely attached to the cables.
6.
At one end of the heater, there is a moveable arm that allows for easy insertion of the element.
Remove the screw holding this arm in place and move it upwards, similar to the following picture.

element holder arm
To install the element:
1.
Remove the outer nut from the threaded stud at one element end.
2.
At the heater end that does
not
have the moveable arm, push the element through one of the
holes near the cables.
For single element heaters, use the centre hole; for dual element heaters, use the left and right
holes. Do not use the centre hole for dual element heaters.
3.
Lay the opposite element end into position, underneath the arm.
4.
Once the element is in place, close the moveable arm over the element end and replace the
securing screw.
Note:
If you are installing two elements, ensure that both are in place before replacing the
moveable arm.
