MODEL NO: EH30001.V2

Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard, this product will, if used according to these instructions, and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS & CAUTIONS. USE THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS SAFE FOR FUTURE USE.

1. SAFETY

NOTE: THIS PRODUCT IS ONLY SUITABLE FOR WELL INSULATED AREAS OR OCCASIONAL USE.

1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:

  • Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products.
  • Electrical safety information. It is important that the following information is read and understood:
  • Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
  • Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure. Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse.
  • DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
  • DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
  • DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or is replaced immediately by a qualified electrician.
    If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch off the electricity supply and remove from use.
    Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician.
    If an extension reel is used it should be as short as possible and fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm² section cable.

IMPORTANT!

This unit is designed to raise the ambient temperature of an entire room, the temperature of the air coming out of the front of the heater will be warmer than the general temperature of the room, but there may not be a significant increase owing to the large volume of air passing over the element. For the same reason, the element is hot during operation, but does not glow. The room temperature depends on room size, insulation and ambient temperature, which will increase as the room warms.

3.1. ASSEMBLY OF THE WHEELS. (fig.2)

3.1.1. Take the axle rod and insert it through the holes in the ‘V’ frames so that the threaded rod ends protrude equally either side. Retain the axle rod in this position by inserting a split pin through the holes situated just on the inside of each leg frame.
3.1.2. Slide a plain washer over each end of the axle rod, followed by a wheel then followed by another plain washer.
3.1.3. Screw a nyloc nut onto each end of the axle by hand until it begins to bite. Hold one nut steady with a 19mm spanner and progressively finger-tighten each nut until it bottoms out on the thread. Once the heater body is fitted between the legs tighten the nuts to fix the wheels in position.

3.2. ASSEMBLY OF THE LEGS TO BODY. (fig.1)
3.2.1. Screw pivot bolt, lock washer and plain washer finger-tight into insert in body of heater via central hole in gusset at the top of legs.
3.2.2. Screw thumbwheel into insert fitted to body via the slot in the gusset. Tighten all fixings once assembled.
3.2.3. Note that the axle hole at the shorter end of the ‘V’ frames should be orientated towards the back of the heater.

3.3. ASSEMBLY OF THE HANDLE. (fig.3)
3.3.1. Slide a plain washer over each of the four M5 x 50mm bolts supplied.
3.3.2. Lay the ‘U’ shaped handle frame onto the front face of the leg frames and align the two holes at each end of the handle frame with the two holes in each leg frame. Insert two bolts at each joint as indicated in fig.3.
3.3.3. Whilst continuing to support the handle frame slide a plain washer followed by a split washer onto the end of each protruding bolt and retain them with a nut. Tighten all four nuts with an 8mm spanner.

ASSEMBLY

3.4. CONNECTING T O MAINS SUPPLY

3.4.1. The heater is supplied with a protected 5 pin connector mounted on the side of the control housing. In order to connect to the mains it will be necessary to have the extension cable shown in fig.4 made up by a qualified electrician. (This connector is not supplied with the machine.) The cable should be no shorter than 1.8m and no longer than 3.0m.
3.4.2. Before connecting the heater to the mains ensure that the selector switch is set to OFF and the thermostat is set at minimum.
3.4.3. Hold open the protective cover on the socket connector on the extension lead as shown above and present it to the heater connector in the correct orientation so that the spigot on the heater connector passes into the keyway on the socket connector. Push the socket connector fully home.
3.4.4. Connect the other end of the extension cable to the mains supply.

3.5. THERMOSTATIC PROTECTION.

3.5.1. The heaters have a thermal cut out to prevent the unit from overheating for any reason, especially if the air input is restricted. If the temperature of the front grille reaches 45ºC a thermal cutout will operate, turning of f the heating elements. When the fan has cooled the unit to 40ºC, normal thermostatic operation will resume.

3.5.2. AUTO COOLING. It is recommended that the thermostat should be set to the minimum to cool the unit prior to switching off. If the unit is switched off when operating at full temperature, and the front grille has reached 45ºC, the time delay thermostat will keep the fan running to cool down the unit. When the front grille has cooled to 40ºC the fan will stop running.

NOTE: Auto cooling will only function if the unit is plugged into the mains and the mains is ON.

4. OPERATION

4.1. Position heater in an upright position on a firm and level
4.2. surface and at a safe distance from any obstructions, flammable substances etc.
4.3. Keep to a minimum of 1m clearance at the front, rear and sides.
4.4. Connect the heater to a suitable mains supply.
4.5. Referring to either fig.5 set the thermostat dial to the maximum setting (fully clockwise).
4.6. The heater will switch on when the power setting selector is set to one of the power settings.

NOTE: It will take up to three minutes for the heater to reach optimum temperature.

4.7. Once the room reaches the required temperature, turn the thermostat dial slowly counter-clockwise until the thermostat clicks, leave the dial in this position and the room temperature will be maintained at this setting. The heater will continue to operate until the power switch is turned to the OFF position.
4.8. For fan only operation, turn the power/fan selector to the fan only setting and set the thermostat to its minimum setting.
4.9. When not in use, disconnect the heater from the mains supply. Store it in a safe, dry, childproof location.

5. MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Before attempting any maintenance, ensure that the unit is unplugged from the mains power supply and that it has cooled down.

5.1. Clean the heater with a soft dry cloth only. DO NOT use abrasives or solvents.
5.2. Periodically check the heater grille to ensure that it is not blocked. No other maintenance is necessary. If a problem with the heater is experienced, or if the power lead or plug is damaged, contact your local authorised service agent for repair. DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the heater, as this may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
