Attach the stainless steel mounting brackets to the ceiling/wall using the appropriate fasteners (not 
supplied). 

3.

 

Loosen and then remove the thick bracket bolts from either end of the heater.

you have removed them. 

4.

 

Thread a bracket bolt through the hole in one of the mounting brackets.

Ensure that the washers are on the bracket bolt in the following order: 

a.

 

Lock washer (notched washer) 

b.

 

Standard washer (flat washer) 

The bracket should be inside both washers, with the standard washer closest to the heater. You can

the heater to be adjusted without loosening the bracket bolt.  

6.

 

Position the heater between the mounting brackets. 

7.

 

Thread the bracket bolt into one end of the heater. 

8.

 

Tighten the bracket bolt securely to lock the heater into the mounting.  

9.

 

Repeat this process with the other end of the heater, ensuring that the weight of the heater is 
supported until both bracket bolts are secured.  

10.

 

Rotate the heater to the desired angle to point towards the heating area.

Installing the Element 

The quartz heating elements are fragile. It is recommended that you mount the heater before installing the 
element. This helps to minimise any possible damage to the element that could occur during installation.
