NOTE: Heater MUST be installed as follows:
• 12" minimum from a vertical surface.
• 72" from ANY combustible material.
• 3" minimum from the ceiling.
• 36" minimum from other heaters.

SUSPENSION ALTERNATIVES
Heater can be mounted with either the adjustable
mounting brackets or by chain suspension. Both
mounting options are included with the heater in the
hardware package.
STANDARD MOUNTING
Two adjustable mounting brackets and fastening hardware
are included in hardware package. Using the mounting
centers specified in Figures 2-3, mount the adjustable
mounting brackets (bends to the inside). Once mounted,
assemble the heater to brackets with mounting hardware.
(See Figure 4) These brackets enable the heater to be
angled in 15-degree increments up to 45 degrees.
CHAIN SUSPENSION
The heater can also be chain-hung as shown in Figure 5.
Cut the 16 ga. chains (two 4-foot chains are provided)
to desired length. Attach chains to heater with S-hooks
provided and suspend from overhead structure. Crimp
S-hooks closed after assembly.
CAUTION! Install heater so that the quartz tube
is horizontal. Failure to do this may cause the
heating element within the tube to sag and
cause premature burnout.
WARNING! ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Serious
injury or death may occur.
