GENERAL INFORMATION FOR USER
- Heatwagon electric heaters are designed for professional use.
- The heat is generated in sealed heating elements inside the inner mantle of the heater. Heated air is then distributed by an electric motor-driven fan blowing air through the heater.
- Although effectively cooled by the fan, the heating elements have high surface temperatures. That is why combustible materials must be kept at a safe distance from the heater and care must be taken that no combustible particles enter the heater with the air sucked in by the fan.
- Keep the heater clean of dust at any time. Dust may cause fire when heated.
- Make sure that the fan blades may rotate unobstructed at all times.
- Do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner.
