WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD
Use your heater only in dry environments. This heater is not intended for
use in a bathroom, laundry area, or similar locations, or near sinks, washing
machines, swimming pools, or other sources of water. Never locate a heater
where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container. Do not use a heater
outdoors. Do not use it in damp environments such as flooded basements.
WARNING: HOT SURFACES
Do not touch the body of the heater when in use. This heater is hot when in
use, to avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use
handles when moving this heater.
WARNING: FIRE HAZARD
Heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use near
combustible materials or flammable gases or sources of heat. DO NOT USE in
areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable materials are used or stored. Keep
combustible materials such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes,
and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the heater and
keep them away from the sides and rear. To prevent a possible fire, do not
block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like
a bed, where openings may become blocked. Do not place the heater near a bed
because objects such as pillows or blankets can fall off the bed and be
ignited by the heater. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any
ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock, fire, or

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not use a damaged cord or plug. Use with an adequate electrical system that is up to code. The supply cord has a polarized plug. As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot, and fully insert the plug. If the plug does not fit contact a qualified electrician. Never use an extension cord. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been dropped, or damaged in any manner. Do not operate the heater with a broken heating element or ceramic cone or any visual imperfections. For all repairs contact a qualified service dealer.
Do not operate the heater with its ventilation obstructed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Before initial use, some assembly is required. Attach casters to the heater body using components provided as shown in Fig. 2.
- Turn the heater (A) upside down. Remove the wing nut (E) from the straight tip of each U-bolt (B). Hook one U-bolt under the heater base between the heater control box and the next fin.
- Align a pedal (D) with the U-bolt tips. Insert the bent tip through one of the pedal bolt holes. Insert the straight tip through the other hole. Use the removed wing nut to secure the straight tip to the pedal.
- Hook the other U-bolt under the heater base between the last two fins. Attach the pedal in the same manner as described in the previous step.
- Remove the nuts (C) preassembled to the casters (F). Insert the caster stems through the caster holes in the pedals. Use the removed nuts to secure the casters to the pedals. Turn the heater upright.
HEATER OPERATION
****Always operate the heater in the upright position following all instructions and recommendations listed in this manual.
HEATER LOCATION
Place the heater in the area of the room that is coldest.
HEATER CONNECTION
Plug heater directly into 120 volt A.C. 60 Hz outlet. Be sure the plug fits
tightly in the outlet. A loose connection may cause overheating and damage to
the plug or heater.
NOTE: To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that is servicing other electrical needs.
HEATER STARTUP
- To start the heater, press one or both power switches (Fig. 3) from the Off to the Low or Med heat mode positions. When both switches are pressed the heater will operate in High heat mode.
- Turn the Thermostat control counterclockwise as far as it will go to the maximum (-F) position.
POWER LEVEL SWITCHES
Low switch = Low heat mode (600 watts)
Med switch = Medium heat mode (900 watts)
Low + Med switch = High heat mode (1500 watts)
SETTING THERMOSTAT
After the heater has been turned on and the area has reached the desired
temperature, slowly rotate the Thermostat Control counterclockwise until the
heater shuts off (you should hear a faint “click”). By leaving the thermostat
at this setting the heater will automatically maintain this area temperature.
To maintain a lower temperature, rotate the control further counterclockwise
toward the minimum (-) position. To maintain a higher temperature, rotate the
control clockwise toward the maximum (±) position.
IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURES
The power indicator light, located in the Power Switch, lights when the
heater is switched on to tell you that the heater has power. The heater is
equipped with an automatic overheat protection device located inside the body
of the heater. If the heater is covered, or if the heater gets too hot for any
reason, the automatic overheat protection device will turn the heater off. The
unit must be reset to resume operation. To reset the unit, turn both power
switches to “0” (Off) and unplug the heater. Wait for 10 minutes for the
heater to cool down. Plug the heater back in and restart. To prevent further
automatic shut-off, locate the heater far enough away from a wall or other
object to allow for sufficient airflow. Always place the heater on a smooth
level surface. The heater is also equipped with a safety tip-over switch to
turn the power off to the heater when the heater tips over. To resume heater
functions simply stand the heater upright. With tip-over protection, the
heater will only operate when placed upright on a level surface.
