GENERAL SAFETY
WARNING! THIS HEATER IS FOR PROFESSIONAL USE. IT HAS BEEN CAREFULLY DESIGNED FOR MOBILE AND
TEMPORARY PROFESSIONAL APPLICATIONS.
IT HAS NOT BEEN DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE NOR FOR COMFORT HEATING AND SHOULD NEVER BE USED TO
HEAT CLOSED ROOMS WITHOUT ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
▲ DANGER! Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Failure to provide proper ventilation could result in serious illness or death.
9 Check that the heater is in sound condition and good working order. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts.
9 Use recommended parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
9 Only use diesel or kerosene to fuel this heater, in accordance with instructions contained in this manual.
9 Locate heater on a level and stable surface.
WARNING! Only use heater in well ventilated areas. Ensure continuous ventilation is provided to the heater operating area via
windows and doors etc. If people are not required to be present in the heated area, the volume of air to be heated (m³)/heat output
kW) ratio must be at least 10:1 and people must be advised not to remain in the heated area for prolonged periods. If people are
required to be present in the heated area, the volume of air to be heated (m³)/heat output (kW) ratio must be at least 30:1.
Ventilation must be to the outside of the premises in which the heater is to be operated. The total open area (m²) must be at least
0.003 times the total heat output (kW). The volume concentration of
oxygen (O
²
) in the heated room, must always remain above 17%.
WARNING! DO NOT use the heater near flammable material, liquids, solids, gases or compressed gas cylinders etc.
8 DO NOT stand or place any object less than 3m from the heater output and keep the heater a minimum of 2m from any walls or
objects.
8 DO NOT use the heater in closed rooms, living areas, basements or below ground level.
8 DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the heater and DO NOT operate the heater without the safety guard.
8 DO NOT move or handle the heater when hot, without wearing protective gloves. Never move the heater whilst it is operating.
8 DO NOT leave the heater unattended for prolonged periods of time when in use. Switch the heater o and unplug from the mains

2. INTRODUCTION
Versatile and compact diesel-fuelled Infrared technology heater has no electric fan, meaning there is no air movement and the heat
is spread evenly in all directions, quietly and dust-free. Ideal for use in well-ventilated indoor areas including garages, workshops,
warehouses and marquees. Extremely inexpensive to run, using only around 1L of fuel per hour. Clean burn and precisely controlled
fuel supply, ensure that no unpleasant odours or carbon monoxide enter the air. Equipped with advanced safety features including
overheat protection, auto-misre, tilt, shock, low fuel shut-o sensors and ame-out fuel cut. Features 24hr timer and temperature
control thermostat. Soft-touch control panel with LED display. Fitted with four castor wheels for easy manoeuvrability. Stainless exhaust
available - IREX1 (End Pipe), IREX2 (1m Extension), IREX3 (90° Bend). Only suitable for use with fresh, clean diesel. The use of any
other fuels or old/second-hand diesel will invalidate the warranty and may cause the unit to malfunction.
