To ensure a long life  of the heater it is 

advised  that  you  run  it  for  at  least  10  minutes 
every  month  to  prevent  malfunction  of  mechanical 
parts. 

After 10 years the heat exchanger, overheat 

sensor  and  exhaust  should  be  replaced  by  a 
professional. 

If  any  welding  is  being  attempted  on  the 

vehicle,  please  remove  the  positive  power  supply 
wire  and  earth  it  to  protect  the  controller  from 
any damage. 

ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS 

1.

A  trial  run  is  useful  before  continual  use
of the heater to ensure all parts are working
correctly.  If  lasting  dense  smoke  occurs,
irregular  combustion  noise,  lingering  fuel
smell,  or  overheating  happens,  the  heater
should  be  switched off and allowed to cool.
The  fuse  should  also  be  removed,  rendering
the heater unusable. The installation should
then  be  looked  over,  paying  close  attention
to  any  loose  connections  of  electrics,  or
pipework. A voltage check may be required, as
well as checking fuel levels.

2.

If  the  heater  has  not  been  allowed  to  cool
down  before  restarting, 

don’t

  be  alarmed

when ignition does not occur  straight  away.
The  heater  will  go  into  a  self-check  mode,
and  will  only  start  when  the  internal
temperature has cooled to appropriate levels.

3.

If  any  problems  persist,  the  heater  and
installation should be looked at by a trained
professional.

4.

Note: Once switched off, the water pump and
air motor will continue to run. This is the
cool down cycle, and is necessary to prevent
damage to internal parts.

5.

Be sure to turn the heater off before filling
up the fuel tank.

6.

Theheatershouldideallyberunfor10minutesever
ymonth to prevent the fuel pump, or any moving
