This appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
The use of an extension lead or multi-plug adaptor is not advised when connecting this appliance to the mains. Connection through these devices could lead to a risk of overloading, overheating and even fire at the extension lead or adaptor due to inadequate connection quality.
Install the appliance in a vertical position and at a distance of minimum 0.5 m away from furniture and other objects. Never operate the appliance near inflammable or explosive materials or gases.
The first time you use the appliance, a little smoke and smell due to the protective substances applied to the heating element before transport may be given off. This is normal and should not be considered a fault.
Unvented portable heaters use air (oxygen) from the area in which it is used. Adequate combustion and ventilation air must be provided.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids near this device. Keep solid combustibles such as building materials, paper or cardboard, at a safe distance from the device. Never use the device in spaces, which do or may contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown chemicals.
Direct-fired heaters may cause carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning when incorrectly used, for example indoors without adequate air circulation, or if not properly working. Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to death.
Not for use in recreational vehicles and other motor vehicles or trailers equipped with living space and amenities.
The electrical system to which the device is connected must comply with the current legislation. Installation requires a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) in the main electrical distribution board.
Unplug the device before performing any maintenance operations.

5. Installation
Install vertically on a flat, dry, stable and non-slippery surface.
Direct-fired heaters are intended for use in open outdoor areas or in well-ventilated indoor spaces. For indoor use, provide permanent ventilation of at least 25 cm^2/kW , equally distributed between floor and high level, with a minimum of 250 cm^2 .
| FT120C | FT130C |
| 600 cm ^2 | 800 cm ^2 |
Install the device in a normal upright position.
Do not place the device near walls, in corners or under low ceilings. Do not place the device below a socket outlet. Do not place the device on moving vehicles or where it can tip over.
Keep the device away from flammable, combustible, explosive or corrosive materials. Do not place the device in the immediate surroundings of a bath, shower or swimming pool. Keep the device away from curtains or similar materials that could block the air inlet and outlet. Never block or restrict the air inlet and outlet for any reason.
Keep the power cable away from heat sources, sharp edges, cutting and moving parts.
Do not expose directly to weather or to excessive humidity.
Install and operate the device on fireproof floors.
Do not connect the direct-fired heater to an air duct.
Follow the general and special fire safety regulations in force in all fields of applications. In any case, ensure the following minimum safety clearances from materials or objects in the surroundings of the device.
| side | 0.6 m |
| air inlet side | 1 m |
| top | 1.5 m |
| hot air outlet side | 3 m |
| floor | 0 m |
6. Fuel
Diesel heaters work with paraffin or diesel. Paraffin gives the cleanest combustion. Be aware that the more dust and dirt that is contained in the fuel, the more ventilation will be required! Use the cleanest fuel possible.
Paraffin may only be stored in blue containers. Red containers are associated with petrol.
Never use other fuels such as petrol, alcohol, oil compounds or similar in this heater. This could lead to fire or explosion.
Never store paraffin in direct sunlight of near a source of heat.
Do not store paraffin in living/work areas but in a well-ventilated area such as a shed, storage area or similar.
Never use paraffin from the previous season. Paraffin deteriorates in quality and will not burn properly as a result.
If you can, use 1-K paraffin in this heater. Other premium quality paraffin may also be used.
7. Operation
7.1 Start-Up
- Fill the tank with the appropriate fuel. The fuel gauge on top of the tank allows you to check the level.
- Next, connect to an earthed mains socket.
- The power indicator will light and the display will show the ambient temperature.
- Flick the power switch to the on position. If the thermostat control knob temperature is set higher than the ambient temperature, the device will start. The device will stop if the ambient temperature is reached.
7.2 Cold Start-Up
At low ambient temperatures, keep a finger on the air vent hole during the ignition. In case of malfunction (flame failure, reduced airflow, bad combustion), the device will stop and the indicator light starts flashing (lockout mode).
7.3 Manual Reset/Re-Start
If the device is in lockout mode, check and resolve the lockout problem before re-starting. To reset, flick the on-off switch to the off position and then again to the on position.
In case of repeated malfunction, please contact your dealer.
7.4 Switching Off
Flick the on-off switch to the off position and disconnect from the mains.
8. Cleaning and Maintenance
General
Before cleaning, switch of the appliance, disconnect from the mains and allow to cool completely.
Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid. Protect it from splashes and spraying liquid.
Occasionally wipe with a damp cloth to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents.
Keep the air inlet and fan free from dust and dirt. To clean inner parts, gently blow compressed air through the air inlet.
Before storing, make sure the device is perfectly cool and dry. Cover the device with a plastic bag and store in a dry, well-ventilated place.
Qualified personnel must carry out the following checks before every seasonal use:
Nozzle
Carefully unscrew the nozzle fitting. Blow compressed air through the nozzle orifice to free it from dirt. Replace the nozzle if necessary.
Air Filters
Clean the air filters. Remove the filter end cover [c], wash the air intake filter [b] using a light detergent, and dry it thoroughly before re-installing. Replace the air delivery filter [a] once a year.

8.4 6.1Compressor Pressure Adjustment
The compressor pressure is factory-set and must be checked and adjusted by qualified technicians only. Tampering with the unit may be dangerous.
Remove the pressure gauge cap [a]. Connect a pressure gauge on the pressure measuring port on the rear guard. Start the device and read the air pressure value. If necessary, adjust the pressure to the correct value turning the adjusting screw (the air vent hole [b]) clockwise to increase, or anticlockwise to decrease the pressure.
