Appliance-specific safety instructions
IMPORTANT:
Please read carefully the complete Operating Instructions before assembling,
handling and maintaining this heating unit. Any unauthorized use of this
heating unit may result in serious injuries or death as a result of burn,
fire, explosion, electric shock and carbon monoxide poisoning.
CAUTION
Carbon monoxide poisoning may be fatal! Carbon monoxide poisoning: Early
symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to those experienced at flu,
i.e. headache, giddiness and/or indisposition. If such symptoms are
experienced, it may be possible your heating body is not working properly. Get
out immediately! Have your heating unit inspected. Some persons are more
sensitive to carbon monoxide than other ones, e.g. pregnant women, persons
with cardiac or pulmonary diseases or anaemia, persons under the influence of
alcohol and persons at heights. Make sure you have read all the maintenance
instructions and have understood them. Keep these Operating Instructions for
future reference. They are your guide for safe and profession-al handling of
this heating unit.
Use only oil to prevent fire and risk of explosion. Pet-rol, crude oil, paint
thinners, alcohol and other highly flammable fuels must not be used in any
case.
Fuel
Staff providing refuelling must be trained and fully familiarised with the
manufacturer‘s instructions and applicable directives for safe refuelling of
heating units.
Only oil may be used for refuelling.
Any flame including the pilot flame must be blown out to allow the heating
unit to cool down before refuelling.
Fuel lines and connections must be checked for leaking when refuelling takes
place. Any leaking must be repaired before putting the heating unit back into
operation.
The maximum fuel daily dose should only be stored in buildings near the
heating unit. Large fuel reserves to be stored outside the building.
All fuel storages must be at least 7 m from heating units, burners, welders
and similar inflammable sources (exception being a fuel tank integrated in the
heating unit).
If applicable, fuel storage should only be limited to spaces where the
flooring design prevents leaked fuel accumulation and the fuel cannot catch
fire as
a result of deeply stored inflammable sources. Fuel must be stored in
accordance with the local official regulations.
General information:
- Never use the heating unit near petrol, paint thinners or other easily combustible fumes.
- Follow all local provisions and regulations when using this heating unit.
- Heating units used near reinforcement grids, canvases or other coverings must be placed in a safe distance from these materials. The recommended minimum distance is 3,5 m. Moreover, using fireproof coverings is recommended. Fireproof coverings must be safely attached to be protected against catching fire and prevent heating unit being touched and turned over due to wind gust.
- To be used in well ventilated spaces only. Before put-ting the appliance into operation, make sure air vent of at least 2,800 cm² for fresh external air is provided for heating output of 100,000 BTU per hour.
- To be used in spaces with no flammable vapours or high dust levels only.
- To be used at voltage and frequency specified on the type label only.
- A properly earthed extension cable with a three-pin plug to be used at all times.
- To prevent a risk of fire, the hot heating unit or heating unit just being operated must be placed on a safe and level surface.
- The heating unit must be transferred or stored in a horizontal position to prevent fuel leaking.

GD-series oil driven fan heaters are to be exclusively used for indirect
heating and drying out in well-venti-lated rooms or in dry outdoor areas, in a
safe distance from flammable materials and persons and animals. A stable and
horizontal surface must be provided for operation. Oil only is allowed as
fuel.
(As far as safety, functionality and service life are con-cerned, the GD
series follows the latest criteria: the safety equipment guarantees
appropriate working of the appliance; operating noise have been reduced to
minimum levels and the careful material selection makes it as much reliable as
possible.)
Safety equipment
The oil hot-air turbine is fitted with an electronic flame control. The
appliance is stopped in case of operating failure. If the oil hot-air turbine
is overheated, thermostat preventing overheating is activated, which
interrupts the fuel supply; the thermostat is automatically deactivated if the
combustion chamber temperature drops below the accepted maximum value. The
overheating cause must be identified and removed (e.g. air inlet and outlet
blocking or fan stopping) before putting the oil hot-air turbine back into
operation. To start the appliance again, please follow the instructions
included under „PUTTING THE APPLIANCE INTO OPERATION“.
