INSTALLATION
When unpacking, check the heater for any damage that may have occured
in transit and notify your Clarke dealer immediately should any be apparent.
The only assembly required is to connect the gas supply. Do not attempt to
operate the heater with any gas other than LPG/Butane. You should have
purchased a suitable 15 kg gas bottle for use with this heater.
This heater, including the hose and regulator assembly, must be inspected
before each use and at least annually by a qualified service person. If the
hose shows evidence of excessive wear or if the hose is cut, it must be
replaced prior to the heater being put into operation. The replacement hose
shall be that specified by Clarke International in the parts list on page 14.
POSITIONING THE HEATER
The heater must be located on a hard, flat, level surface to minimise the risk
of accidental tipping and the gas bottle should be held by the bottle re-
tainer.
DO NOT operate this heater with the supply bottle in any other than the
upright position.
The heater must be located such that it will not be exposed directly to
sources of water.
Use of this heater in a drafty area decreases its efficiency. If
possible, operate the unit in a draft free area.
MATERIAL CLEARANCES
It is recommended that the heater be
positioned with at least 500 mm clearance
to the sides and rear.
However, any household furnishings should
be a safe distance away as they could be
adversely affected by heat.
Always position the heater facing the centre
of the room and positioned as shown in the
diagram. Never place objects on, or against
the heater.
VENTILATION
This heater must only be installed in a room
which is well ventilated. Do not operate in a caravan, boat, or any room of
less than 40 cu/m in volume. Ventilation is essential to reduce the dangers of
carbon monoxide poisoning, and from oxygen depletion.
WARNING:
IF FRESH, OUTSIDE AIR VENTILATION IS NOT PROVIDED,
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING COULD OCCUR.
