Cleaning Instructions
Fire, Burn, and Explosion Hazard
s
■ This heater contains electrical and mechanical
components in the gas management, safety
and airflow systems.
■ Such components may become inoperative or
fail due to dust, dirt, wear, aging, or the cor-
rosive atmosphere of an animal confinement
building.
■ Periodic cleaning and inspection as well as
proper maintenance are essential to avoid
serious injury or property damage.
1. Before cleaning, shut off all gas supply valves
and disconnect electrical supply.
2. The heater should have dirt or dust removed
periodically:
a. After each use, give the heater a general
cleaning using compressed air or a soft
brush on its interior and exterior. At this
time, dust off the motor case to prevent the
motor from over-heating and shutting the
heater down.
b. At least once a year, give the heater a
thorough cleaning. At this time, remove
the fan and motor assembly and brush or
blow off the fan wheel, giving attention to
the individual fan blades. Additionally, make
sure the burner air inlet venturi ports and
the "throat" of the casting are free of dust
accumulation and the area between the
heat chamber top and inside case is also
free of dust.
c. Observe and obey the Warning within these
Cleaning Instructions. This same Warning
is also supplied on the heater.
