Safety Information - Master MH-40-GFA Manual De Usuario E Instrucciones De Funcionamiento

WARNING
The products described in this manual are pro-
pane direct-fired, forced air heaters. Propane
forced air heaters are primarily intended for use
for temporary heating of buildings under construc-
tion, alteration or repair. Direct-fired means that
all of the combustion products of the heater enter
the heated space. This appliance is rated at 98%
combustion efficiency, but does produce small
amounts of carbon monoxide.
DANGER
Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans can tolerate
only small amounts of carbon monoxide and so
precautions should be taken to provide proper
ventilation. Failure to provide proper ventilation
in accordance with the instructions in this manual
can result in death.
People with breathing problems should consult
a physician before using this heater. Early signs
of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu.
Symptoms of improper ventilation / carbon mon-
oxide poisoning are:
Headache • Dizziness • Nausea • Dry Mouth Sore
Throat • Burning of Nose and Eyes
If you experience any of these symptoms:
GET FRESH AIR AT ONCE! Have your heater
serviced and check for proper ventilation. Some
people are more affected by carbon monoxide
than others. These include: pregnant women,
those with heart or lung problems, anemia or
those under the influence of alcohol or at high
altitudes.
FOR OUTDOOR USE. INDOOR USE PERMITTED
ONLY FOR: The temporary heating of adequately
ventilated buildings or structures under construction,
alteration or repair! Provide at least a three square
foot (2,800 sq. cm) opening of outside air for every
100,000 Btu / Hr (29 kW) heater rating. Refer to
"Ventilation" on page 8 for further instructions.
