WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
If the socket outlets in your home are not of the 13 amp
BS1363 type they will not accept the plug connected to this
heater, therefore cut off the plug. When cut off this plug can

must therefore be disposed of safely.
Before wiring the appropriate plug please note that the
wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
GREEN/YELLOW: EARTH
BLUE:
NEUTRAL
BROWN:
LIVE
Connect the Green/Yellow wire to the terminal marked E
or the earth symbol or coloured Green or Green/Yellow.
Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured
Red.
Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured
Black.
DO NOT
connect the Brown (Live) or the Blue
(Neutral) wires to the Earth terminal of your 13 amp plug.
If the terminals of the plug are unmarked or you are in any
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Fitting the castors
Remove the carton containing the castor assemblies from
the packing.
Fit the castors to the stub axles by applying hand pressure
until each castor clicks into position - see
Fig. 3
. Note that
the castors are designed to be a tight fit on the axles but
will rotate in use.
The castors can only be fitted between the outer fins (as
shown in
Fig. 2
).
Turn the heater upside down on a carpet or other soft
surface to avoid damage
WARNING: THE HEATER IS HEAVY – ENSURE THAT
IT IS SUPPORTED TO PREVENT IT FROM TOPPLING.
Ask a second person to help with this if necessary. Position
castor bracket (see
Fig. 3
) onto the threaded pins on the
control panel. Place the winged nut ‘C’ on the thread and
tighten it securely.
Repeat the process for castor bracket ‘B’ onto the last fin.
Note: The 5 fin column heater models - OFRC10 &
OFRC10TI use curved castor brackets and must be fitted
as shown in
Fig. 2
.
Lift the heater clear of the floor, then turn it back upright
and stand it on its castors as shown in
Fig. 1
. It is now
ready for use.
Positioning the Heater
Select the position for the heater ensuring there is clearance
from any furniture and fittings of at least 300mm above the
heater and 150mm each side. The heater should only be
operated on a flat stable surface.
