5. Pautes d'instal·lació
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your heater. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified professional.
Passos generals:
- Muntatge: Select a suitable, stable location for the heater host. Use the provided Fixed Plate and Mounting Plate along with machine fixing accessories (screws, nuts, clips, clamps) to securely fasten the heater. Ensure adequate clearance around the unit for air circulation and maintenance.
- Connexió del sistema de combustible: Install the 10L fuel tank in a safe and accessible location. Connect the fuel hose from the tank to the oil pump, and then from the oil pump to the heater. Use the oil filter and oil pump clip as directed. Ensure all fuel connections are tight and leak-free.
- Sistema d'escapament: Connect the exhaust pipe to the heater's exhaust port. Route the exhaust pipe safely away from flammable materials and ensure it exits the vehicle/space without obstruction. Use the exhaust silencer and blowpipe clamp.
- Entrada i sortida d'aire: Connect the intake pipe to the heater's air intake and the air outlet pipe to the air outlet grille. Ensure these are clear of obstructions and positioned to distribute heat effectively.
- Cablejat elèctric: Connect the wire harness to the heater and to a suitable 12V or 24V power source, ensuring correct polarity (Reverse Connection Protection is present, but correct wiring is always best practice). Connect the LCD switch and remote control receiver (if separate) to the wire harness.
- Comprovació inicial: After installation, double-check all connections (fuel, exhaust, air, electrical) for security and integrity before first use.
