OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

No assembly is required for this heater.

Please observe the safety precautions presented in this booklet for your safety.

1.

CAUTION: Always make sure the Power Cord (10) of the heater is unplugged from its electrical
outlet 

prior to making any adjustments to the heater.

2.

Place the heater on a firm, level surface free from obstructions, and at least 3 feet away from any
wall or combustible material. DO NOT use on an unstable surface such as bedding or deep carpet-
ing. Keep the heater away from traffic areas, where it may be tripped on or knocked over.

3.

With the Power Knob (1) set in the OFF position, plug the heater into a grounded 120V outlet. Turn
the Power Knob (1) to HI to start the unit. If desired, turn the Power Knob (1) to “Oscillate” to
engage side-to-side oscillation while the heater is on.

4.

When not in use; turn off the unit, allow it to cool completely, and unplug the unit from the electrical
outlet.

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

1.

WARNING!  Make sure the Power Knob (1) of the heater is in its “OFF” position, that the item is
unplugged from its electrical outlet, and has cooled for at least 10 minutes, before performing any
inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures. Clean using only a dry, clean cloth. Never use
any water, wax, polish or chemical cleaners.

2.

BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the heater.  Check for loose screws, mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any
other condition that may affect its safe operation.  If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the
problem corrected before further use.

Do not use damaged equipment.

3.

Do not attempt to disassemble this heater. It is not designed to be disassembled.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If your heater shuts off unexpectedly, or fails to operate,

one of the safety features may have been activated.

1.

If you find an obstruction in the grill or vents, with the heater turned OFF and unplugged, carefully
remove it.

2.

If the heater won’t start, check to be sure it is plugged in, and the plug has power.

3.

Press the Reset Button. If it goes in, the heater should restart.

4.

If the Reset Button is in, the plug has power, there is no observable damage, and the heater still
won’t operate, it is likely that the Thermal Cutoff (4) unit has blown. Please contact Harbor Freight
Tools at the phone number on the front of this manual for repair instructions.
