Electrical Connection
To connect a supply to the heater the curved top cover first needs to be removed. Looking directly at the output grille the top cover is secured by two screws which are located at the upper left and right of the outlet grille. Once the 2 screws are removed the curved top cover can be removed by lifting it up and away from the output grille, then lifting off the cover from the two slot hinges located at the opposite side to the two screws. The input terminal block, marked LEN, is fitted at the left hand side of the unit looking from above (at the opposite end to the fan motor.
Installation
To the unit, connect a suitable length of 3 core flexible cable (1.5 mm2 for 3kW) to the input terminal block. Loosen mounting screws, allowing the mounting bracket to be removed from the unit.
