UAL CAREFULLY AND COMPLETELY BE-
FORE TRYING TO OPERATE OR SERVICE
THIS HEATER. IMPROPER USE OF THIS
HEATER CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY

AND CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
• Do not use this heater for heating human
living quarters.
• Use of direct-fired
construction environment can result in
exposure to levels of CO, CO
considered to be hazardous to health and
potentially life threatening.
• Do not use in unventilated areas
• Know the signs of CO and CO
▫ Headaches, stinging eyes
▫ Dizziness, disorientation
▫ Difficulty breathing, feels of being
suffocated
• Proper ventilation air exchange (OSHA

Natural Gas and
This is a direct-fired forced air construction
heater for indoor construction use. Its intended
use is primarily the temporary heating of build-
ings or structures under construction, altera-
tion or repair. All the products of combustion
generated by the heater are forced through
the heater and released into the area being
heated. This heater operates at approximately
99%+ combustion efficiency but still produces
a small amount of carbon monoxide. Humans
can tolerate small amounts of carbon monox-
ide for short periods. Carbon monoxide can
build up in a heated space and failure to provide
adequate ventilation could result in poisoning
or death.
