General
The heater is designed for operation on an AC electricity supply,
and is suitable for use in domestic dwellings and similar indoor
locations.
Always ensure that the appliance is stood on a firm, level base
near to, but not directly beneath, a suitable fixed socket outlet.
The heater is fitted with castors and a handle for ease of
movement. Selector switches provide a choice of heat output, an
adjustable thermostat which enables the room temperature to be
controlled accordingly and a turbo Boost fan which is controlled
independently by the turbo switch. It is supplied with a cord and
plug ready for use.
The supply cord should be uncoiled before use (see ‘Storage’).
DO NOT pull the heater along by the mains lead.
Important -
The heater must only be operated with the wheels
and castors fitted and in the upright position as shown in
Fig. 1
.
Warning – The heater complies with stringent safety standards
but to ensure efficient operation
SURFACES OF THE HEATER
WILL BECOME HOT AND CONTACT WITH THESE AREAS
SHOULD BE AVOIDED,
particularly between the fins on the
top and sides.
The control panel area is designed to be at a far lower temperature
to allow the safe operation of the controls at any time.
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
Fitting the castors
Remove the carton containing the castor assemblies from the
packing.
Fit the castors to the stub axles by applying hand pressure until
each castor clicks into position - see
Fig. 3
. Note that the castors
are designed to be a tight fit on the axles but will rotate in use.
The castors can only be fitted between the outer fins (as shown
in
Fig. 2
).
Turn the heater upside down on a carpet or other soft surface
to avoid damage
WARNING: THE HEATER IS HEAVY – ENSURE THAT IT
IS SUPPORTED TO PREVENT IT FROM TOPPLING.
Ask a
second person to help with this if necessary. Position castor
bracket (see
Fig. 3
) onto the threaded pins on the control panel.
Place the winged nut ‘C’ on the thread and tighten it securely.
Repeat the process for castor bracket ‘B’ onto the last fin.
Note: The 5 fin column heater models - OFRC10 & OFRC10TI
use curved castor brackets and must be fitted as shown in
Fig. 2
.
Lift the heater clear of the floor, then turn it back upright and
stand it on its castors as shown in
Fig. 1
. It is now ready for use.
