HI750 Operation
4.7 Positioning the Machine
The installer must be familiar with all applicable laws, codes, regulations, or other
restrictions regarding installation of Indirect-Fired (IDF) heaters.
CO Alarms Because this machine produces carbon monoxide (CO), Wacker Neuson
recommends that CO alarms be installed in all structures in close proximity to the
machine. CO alarms provide an extra measure of protection against this poison
that you cannot see or smell.
Install battery-operated CO alarms or plug-in CO alarms with battery backup,
according to the manufacturer’s instructions. CO alarms should be certified to the
requirements of the latest safety standards (UL 2034, IAS 6-96, or CSA 6.19.01).
Test the CO alarm batteries monthly.
Requirements Position the machine so that:
■
burner exhaust will not enter nearby structures.
■
the machine does not block traffic.
■
the machine is not close to any combustible material or flammable vapor.
■
all of the machine’s access doors/panels may be accessed.
■
power cords do not pose tripping hazards, and so that the power cords cannot
be damaged by machines or other equipment on the job site.
This procedure continues on the next page.
