Overheating protection
The unit has a safety thermostat. In case of overheating, i.e. exceeding the operating temperature, it switches on and the heating is deactivated. The fan is not switched off by the safety thermostat. It continues to run to cool down the unit. Look for the cause of the overheating and eliminate it. When the unit has cooled down sufficiently, it switches on again automatically.
If the problem persists, please contact customer service.

Behavior in an emergency

1. Switch off the unit immediately.
2. In an emergency, disconnect the unit from the mains supply. So unplug the mains cable from the socket by grasping it by the mains plug.
3. A defective unit must no longer be connected to the mains!

Intended use
Depending on the type of mains cable, this fan heater may only be used in the household, in warehouses and workshops, on construction sites or in greenhouses (see overview of mains cables). It is only suitable for well- insulated rooms or occasional use. Use for agricultural purposes (for example in barns, for drying straw) is strictly prohibited! When using the unit, always observe the respective local building and fire protection regulations as well as the necessary electrical fuses. This unit may only be used as specified for its intended purpose. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by non-compliance with the provisions of the generally applicable regulations and the provisions of this manual. The unit is primarily suitable as an auxiliary heater and is intended exclusively for floor installation.

Assembly & commissioning

Delivery
Remove the unit from the packaging and completely remove all packaging parts from the unit. Unwind the mains cable completely and make sure that it is not damaged.

Warning Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging parts out of the reach of children and dispose of them as soon as possible.

Note
Please have visible damage to the outer packaging confirmed by the driver of the parcel service immediately upon delivery. If transport damage is only noticed during unpacking, the parcel service must be notified in writing within 24 hours of delivery in order to hold them liable for the damage.

Assembly
Before you can set up the unit, the feet, the axle with castors, as well as the handle and the locking screw for the discharge angle must be fitted. You will find an illustrated illustration on page 6-7 of this manual.

Proceed as follows for assembly:

1. Attach the two brackets B to the heater A with the corresponding fasteners I . Ensure the correct direction of the brackets in order to be able to mount the axle at the rear end. (p. 6, fig. 1) Screw the locking screw with the fasteners H to the heater A through the brackets B as well. (p. 6, picture 1)
2. Mount the handle C with the fasteners J on the brackets B . (p. 6, picture 2)
3. Insert the wheel axle D through the holes provided in the brackets B and mount the castors E on it with the fasteners F . Secure the axle with the two cotter pins G . (p. 7, picture 3)

Commissioning
When installing the unit, the prescribed minimum distances must be observed, See the graph below.

Position the fan heater so that it is upright on a solid surface and a safe distance away from damp environ-ments and flammable objects.

Note
When you operate the heater for the first time, there may be a slight emission of smoke. This is quite normal and will stop after a short time. The heating element is made of stainless steel and was coated with a protective oil during manufacture. The smoke is caused by the remaining oil during heating. There may also be an odour here. This is also normal and will fade.

Electrical connection
The heater is supplied with an industrial plug installed in the unit. An additional coupling or extension cable is required to use the heater. The following must be observed here:

• X CEE coupling 380V/415V 50/60Hz (32A) Y
• Mains cable: H07RN-F 4G2.5mm2
• Z CEE plug 380V/415V 50/60Hz IP24 (32A)

The user should use the purchased mains coupling as shown in the illustration. The coupling should fit the unit and extend the earth connection. The coupling should be VDE approved. The length of the mains cable may be more than 1.8 m but less than 3 m. If the mains cable is too long and heavy, it may fall off the coupling, cause an electric shock or be tripped over by a child. Make sure that the cable is completely unwound. When you connect the mains plug to the appliance, open the cover with the direction of the arrow. See picture 2.

Make sure that the unit voltage (see type plate) and mains voltage match. Make sure that the unit is completely switched off when you plug it in. Only connect the mains plug to a properly installed and fused socket. Make sure that the mains cable is always routed behind the unit – never in front of it!

Disposal

Warning Danger of suffocation!
Keep packaging parts out of the reach of children and dispose of them as soon as possible. The packaging protects the unit from damage during transport. The packaging materials are usually selected according to environmentally compatible and disposal aspects and are therefore recyclable. Returning the packaging to the material cycle saves raw materials and reduces the amount of waste. Packaging parts (e.g. foils, Styrofoam®) can be dangerous for children. Do not dispose of electrical appliances in household waste, use the collection points in your municipality. Ask your local authority for the locations of the collection points. If electrical appliances are disposed of in an uncontrolled manner, hazardous substances can enter the groundwater and thus the food chain during weathering, or flora and fauna can be poisoned for years. If you replace the appliance with a new one, the seller is legally obliged to accept the old one for disposal at least free of charge. When disposing of the unit, the relevant regulations on the disposal of used oil must be followed.

• Devices that are damaged and/or need to be disposed of must be handed in at the recycling points provided for this purpose.
