Installing the heater (Fig. A-N)

Always mount the device with the supplied accessories.

Before starting the installation, take the following into consideration:

• Place the device on a firm, level surface.
• The device must be mounted so that there is 50~cm of free space between the heater and any ceiling, tent canvas etc. There must also be at least 1.80m between the ground and the underside of the device. Refer to Fig. J and K. The device may never be hung at an angle!
• Ensure that the power supply cable is well mounted and that it does not come into contact with reflector of the heater or that does not trail into heated area.
• Do not install the heater on an inflammable surface.
  If the heater is to be used outside, a weatherproof outlet is highly recommended.
• Before drilling ensure that there are no wires or water pipes in the area where the heater is to be installed.

To install the heater on a wall or ceiling, follow these steps:

1. The device is supplied with the mounting accessories as shown in figure C.
2. Drill a total of 4 holes using the dimensions in figure D. The hole diameter should be the same diameter as the anchor diameter: 8mm . Drill at least 10 to 15mm deeper than the expected embedment. Ensure the holes are level and at exactly the same height.
3. Clean out the holes of any debris.
4. Set the nut flush with the top of the sleeve anchor (14), shown as step 1 in figure E.
5. Insert the sleeve anchor (14) into the hole in the base material, shown as step 2 in figure E. Using a hammer, insert the sleeve anchor as far until the washer and nut are tight against the

base material.

1. Now put the mounting bracket (13) on the sleeve anchors (14), and mount it using the washer and nut. Turn the nut until finger tight. Both as shown on figure F.
2. Use a size 10 wrench to set the anchor by turning the nut three to four full turns.
3. Mount the remaining 2 mounting brackets (13) onto the outer holes of the heater (1), as shown on figure G.
4. Take the heater with the assembled brackets to the mounting brackets mounted on the wall or ceiling. Now pair both brackets with the bolt (17), washer (18) and wing nut (16), as shown on figure H.
5. Figure I shows a correctly assembled mounting bracket assembly.
6. Take into account the minimum distances as shown on figure J and K.
7. The heater can be adjusted until the maximum angle, as shown on figure K and L.
8. Plug the patio heater into a grounded power outlet. Check beforehand if the voltage rating matches the device.
9. Take into account to mount the power cable in correct matter, as shown on figure M and N. Use tyraps to fixate the cable to the mounting brackets if necessary.

Note: the heater can also be mounted on a tripod or metal stand. Follow the instructions supplied with the tripod or stand, to mount the heater properly.

Assembling the remote control (Fig. B)

• Flip the remote control (7) to the backside and remove the battery cover.
