Original operating instructions

The transportable hot air generator, which is powered by EL heating oil or diesel fuel, is ideal for heating and drying well ventilated enclosed spaces (e.g. tents, storage facilities, building Anl_DHG_360_SPK7.indb 23Anl_DHG_360_SPK7.indb 23 21.02.2017 11:51:4921.02.2017 11:51:49GB

sites) that are of a suitable size (min. 1100 m

Adequate ventilation openings must be available to ensure a reliable supply of fresh air and remo- val of combustion gas. In the open air the equip- ment is only allowed to be used in areas that are roofed over and protected from the weather. It is not allowed to be used for heating apartments or in leisure vehicles (e.g. caravans or motor ho- mes). The equipment is to be used only for its prescri- bed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or inju- ries of any kind caused as a result of this. Please note that our equipment has not been de- signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

4. Mode of operation

The hot air generator is equipped with a compres- sor which creates a vacuum in order to draw fuel out of the tank. The drawn fuel arrives at a burner nozzle where an air/fuel mix is formed. The air/fuel mix is ignited electrically in the com- bustion chamber. Air is blown into the combustion chamber by the fan and leaves the chamber at the front as hot air. The required temperature can be set with the thermostat knob. When this temperature is reached, the equipment will be switched off automatically. When the temperature drops below the set temperature, the equipment will be switched on again. A photocell constantly monitors the combustion and will switch off the equipment if any irregulari- ties occur. The equipment will also be switched off if it over- heats. In this case, please contact Customer Service. The electrical components are protected by a miniature fuse.

6. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the power supply, make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the supply voltage.

Always place the portable equipment on a firm, horizontal surface.

The equipment must always be in a horizontal position.

The minimum distance between the equip- ment and other objects is 3 m to the front and

1.25 m to the rear, side and top. Be sure to

observe the minimum distance.

Use the equipment only outdoors or in well- ventilated rooms. The room must have air inlet openings of 0.02 m² per kW heat output. For a heat output of 36 kW this means openings with a total size of 0.72 m

. You must open for example windows and doors which lead outdoors.

Connect the equipment to an earthed socket outlet only.

This equipment must be installed and ope- rated in accordance with the regulations in force.
