Operation

An unpleasant smell may be produced when the device is used for the first time in some cases. This is however completely harmless and will disappear completely over time.
Before each use, check the device and its connecting parts and accessories for damage.

Power on:

1. Connect the pressure regulator to the gas cylinder valve.
2. Connect the gas hose to the pressure regulator.
3. Connect the gas hose to the heater.
4. Open the gas cylinder valve.
5. Check screw caps with leak detection spray or soapy water for possible gas leakage. Tighten again if necessary.
6. Put the mains cable into a suitable socket.
7. Press the On/Off switch to switch on the device.
8. From the intake side, check whether the fan is rotating.
9. If the fan is turning, keep the gas valve button pressed and at the same time press the ignition button repeatedly until the burner ignites.
10. Keep the gas valve knob pressed for approx. 10 seconds until the thermal fuse has warmed up and keeps the gas supply open.
11. Check that the gas heater is running continuously.
12. Use the control dial to adjust the heat output to the desired level.

Power off:

1. To switch off the gas heater, always close the gas cylinder valve first.
2. Run the fan for 1-2 minutes to blow out any noncombusted gas and to cool down the unit.
3. Switch the device off with the On/Off switch.
4. Pull out the mains plug to disconnect the device from the mains.
5. Disconnect the device from the gas cylinder by unscrewing the pressure regulator from the gas cylinder valve.
6. Carry out the maintenance and cleaning work described in the instructions. Please note the intervals mentioned. (once a month, every 50 operating hours, after each season)
7. Store the device and the gas cylinders as described in the chapter on storage

Handling of gas bottles.
Make sure the gas bottles are used and stored in rooms with sufficient air inlet and outlet.
A leaking gas bottle may reduce the share of oxygen in the inhaled air and therefore represent a risk of suffocation.
Before using the device, always check that the pressure controller seal is correctly fitted and working properly.
Before use, make sure the gas bottle contains gas designed for the work being done.
Gas bottles must always be safely fixed in a vertical position on a wall support or on a specially manufactured gas bottle cart.
The liquid gas cylinder must be changed in a well-ventilated room or outdoors, and away from open flames (cigarettes, candles or other devices with open flames).
A gas cylinder with a pressure regulator attached must not be moved. Close the gas bottle valve after use.
The gas bottle valve must be closed during transport.

Smell of gas or suspect leakage
If you smell gas or suspect a leak, do not use the device. If the device is in use, the gas supply must be shut off immediately. Immediately open windows and doors. Do not press any electrical switches (e.g. light switches), do not use a telephone or similar and do not use any naked flames or sources of ignition! The device must be checked and any faults remedied before it can be used again.

Disposal
Do not dispose of electrical appliances in household waste; use the local collection points. Ask your local authority where the collection points are to be found. If electrical equipment is disposed of in an uncontrolled manner, weathering can lead to dangerous substances entering the groundwater and from there the food chain, or the flora and fauna can be poisoned for years. If you replace the device with a new one, the seller is legally obliged at the least to take back the old one to be disposed of free of charge.

Transport packaging disposal
The packaging protects the machine against damage during transport. Packaging materials are usually chosen based on environment aspects and waste treatment principles  and are therefore recyclable. Returning the packaging into material circulation saves raw materials and reduces waste production. Parts of packagings (e.g. foils, styropor®) can be dangerous for children.

Risk of suffocation!
Keep parts of the packagings out of reach of children and dispose them as soon as possible.
