Fitting the castors  
Important Safety Advice  
Remove the carton containing the castor assemblies from the packing.  
If the appliance is damaged, check immediately with the supplier  
before installation and operation.  
Fit the castors to the stub axles by applying hand pressure until each  
castor clicks into position - see Fig. 3. Note that the castors are designed  
to be a tight fit on the axles but will rotate in use.  
Warning – This appliance must not be used in a bathroom.  
Warning – Do not use this heater in the immediate surroundings  
of a bath, a shower or a swimming pool.  
The castors can only be fitted between the outer fins (as shown in Fig. 2).  
Turn the radiator upside down on a carpet or other soft surface to avoid  
damage  
Warning – This heater must not be located immediately below a  
fixed socket outlet.  
WARNING : THE RADIATOR IS HEAVY – ENSURE THAT IT IS SUPPORTED  
TO PREVENT IT FROM TOPPLING. Ask a second person to help with this  
if necessary. Position castor bracket (see Fig. 3) onto the threaded pins on  
the control panel. Place the winged nut ‘C’ on the thread and tighten it  
securely.  
Warning – Do not use in areas where petrol, paint or flammable  
liquids are used or stored.  
Follow these instructions carefully.  
The heater carries a warning ‘Do Not Cover’ to alert the user to  
the risk of fire that exists if the heater is accidentally covered.  
Repeat the process for castor bracket ‘B’ onto the last fin.  
Note: The 5 fin column radiator models - OFRC10 & OFRC10TI use  
curved castor brackets and must be fitted as shown in Fig. 2.  
The appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons  
without assistance or supervision if their physical, sensory or  
mental capabilities prevent them from using it safely. Children  
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the  
appliance.  
Lift the radiator clear of the floor, then turn it back upright and stand it on  
its castors as shown in Fig. 1. It is now ready for use.  
Positioning the Heater  
Select the position for the radiator ensuring there is clearance from any  
furniture and fittings of at least 300mm above the heater and 150mm  
each side. The radiator should only be operated on a flat stable surface.  
If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the  
manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person  
in order to avoid a hazard.  
Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.  
Operation  
Momentary contact with any part of the heater should not cause  
injury. However aged, infirm persons or young children should  
not be left unsupervised in the vicinity of the heater.  
IMPORTANT – Objects or clothing must not be placed on this heater.  
Before using the heater ensure that all warnings and instructions have  
been read carefully.  
To bring the heater into use plug it in. Neon indicating lights located at  
the controls area will glow when the appliance is plugged into the mains.

the room when using the heater for the first time.  
THE HEATER CARRIES THE WARNING SYMBOL INDICATING  
THAT IT MUST NOT BE COVERED.  
Controls  
Thermostat (see Fig. 4)

room temperature. This ensures that the heater will not produce heat  
unnecessarily when the room is warm. To set the temperature you require,  
turn the thermostat knob clockwise until the required setting is reached.  
Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat knob up  
fully. When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn the  
thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat just clicks off. The  
heater will now automatically operate at this temperature. The thermostat
