SAFETY SUMMARY
WARNING
Correct installation of the heater is necessary to ensure safe operation.
Read and understand this manual before attempting to install the heater.
Failure to follow these procedures could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
The heater MUST be turned off while re-fueling. Do not install the heater
in an enclosed area where combustible fumes may be present. Failure to
follow these procedures could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
Install the exhaust system so that a minimum distance of 2 inches (50
mm) from any flammable material is maintained at all times. Ensure that
the fuel system is intact and that there are no fuel leaks.
Route the heater exhaust system so that exhaust fumes cannot enter
either cab compartment. If running exhaust components through an
enclosed compartment, ensure that it is vented to the outside. Failure to
follow these procedures could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
The engine coolant system should contain the proper mixture of anti-
freeze and water to prevent coolant from freezing or slushing. If the
coolant becomes slushy or frozen, the heater's coolant pump cannot
move the coolant, causing a blockage in the coolant system. Pressure
could rapidly build-up in the heater and in the coolant hose causing it to
burst or blow off of its connection point. Failure to ensure that the engine
coolant system is properly filled could result in damage to the engine
and/or serious injury. Refer to Chapter 2, Section 2 in this manual.
