1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use
The HI900 Heaters are indirect-fired air heaters available in oil (diesel) burner and
natural gas or liquid propane (LP) burning models. The machine consists of the
following components:
Combustion chamber and heat exchanger
Centrifugal blower
Single-stage burner
High-temperature shut-down switch(es)
Fuel tank on diesel burning models
Trailer on mobile units
Generator on mobile units
Fuel is consumed in a closed combustion chamber. Room air or outside air
(depending on the application) is pulled in by the centrifugal blower and blown over
the hot heat exchanger. This clean, dry, hot air is then blown into the space to be
heated by the centrifugal blower. Access to the blower assembly is protected by a
guard fitted on the air inlet.
The HI900 Heaters are intended to provide heat on outdoor sites (trailer and skid)
or indoor (skid only) sites and in other rugged applications.
This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use described
above. Using the machine for any other purpose could permanently damage the
machine or seriously injure the operator or other persons on the work site. Machine
damage caused by misuse is not covered under warranty.
If your machine includes a generator, do not operate it indoors.
If your machine does not include a generator, it may be operated indoors, but
only when it has
proper exhaust venting designed for indoor use, which meets all
applicable regulations.
This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest global
safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate hazards as far as
practicable, and to increase operator safety through protective guards and labeling.
However, some risks may remain even after protective measures have been taken.
They are called residual risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:
exhaust emissions
hot surfaces such as exhaust vents
fuel and fuel fumes when refueling
high voltages and arc flash
To protect yourself and others, thoroughly read and understand the safety
information presented in this manual before operating the machine.
Wacker Neuson offers many optional accessories for the machine. These
accessories include the following:
Remote thermostat
Duct adapters (various sizes, available as kits, or individual ducts).
Covers for inlet and outlets (need to be removed before operation)
Exhaust vents and elbows
Burner conversion kits

machine:
Close-fitting work clothes that do not hinder movement
Safety Information HI 900
16 wc_si000827gb.fm
Safety glasses with side shields
Hearing protection
Safety-toed footwear
Work space
When operating the machine:
Position the machine on a firm, noncombustible, level surface.
Install the machine away from direct contact with rain, spraying and/or dripping
water.
Keep the area immediately surrounding and underneath the machine clean,
neat, and free of debris and combustible materials.
Keep the area above the machine clear of debris that could fall on the machine.
Store the machine properly when it is not being used.
Keep unauthorized personnel, children, and pets away from the machine.
When operating the machine:
Do not connect ductwork between the exhaust outlet port and the supply air inlet
port.
Never operate the machine in areas that contain flammable objects, fuels, or
products that produce flammable vapors.
Do not position the electrical cords under the machine or over the top of the
machine.
DANGER
Exhaust gas from the burner contains carbon monoxide, a deadly poison. Exposure
to carbon monoxide can kill you in minutes.
f Never run the machine indoors or in an enclosed area unless the machine is
vented properly.
f If your machine has a trailer or generator, do not run the machine indoors.
HI 900 Safety Information
wc_si000827gb.fm 17
1.4 Safety Guidelines for Operating Combustion Burners
When using the machine:
Make sure you have proper certification or licensing required by the locality,
state, or province in which the machine is being installed to connect natural gas
or LP.
Clean up any spilled fuel immediately.
Replace the fuel tank cap after refueling the machine.
Refill the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.
Always keep the oil supply valve shut off if the burner is shut down for an
extended period of time.
When using the machine:
Do not fill or drain the fuel tank near an open flame, while smoking, or while the
machine is running.
Do not smoke when refueling the machine.
Do not smoke when connecting natural gas or LP.
Do not attempt to start the burner when excess oil has accumulated, when the
unit is full of vapors, or when the combustion chamber is very hot.
Note: Some machines may not be capable of supporting natural gas or LP. Please
see the burner manufacturer’s literature for more information.
DANGER
Carbon monoxide. Using this machine indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide (CO). This is a deadly poison you cannot
see or smell. If you can smell the exhaust, you are breathing CO. Even if you
cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
f NEVER operate the machine inside an enclosed area, such as a home, tunnel,
or garage unless it is vented properly.
f ONLY use the machine outside and far away from windows, doors, and vents.
These openings can pull in exhaust gas.
f ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-backup CO alarm in nearby struc-
tures. Even when you use the machine correctly, CO may leak into nearby
structures.
f If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the machine has been running, move
to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide
poisoning.
WARNING
Fire and explosion hazard. Cold fuel may gel, fail to ignite, and accumulate in the
heat exchanger. This accumulated fuel may explode during burner ignition.
f Always preheat the fuel before switching power to the burner.
Safety Information HI 900
18 wc_si000827gb.fm
1.5 Service Safety

1.6 Safety Guidelines for Operating Gensets
This machine is built with user safety in mind; however, like any electrical device it
can present serious hazards if improperly operated and serviced. Follow
instructions carefully. Should questions arise during operation or service of this
equipment, contact your Wacker Neuson dealer.
General
precautions
Keep a multi-class, type ABC or equivalent fire extinguisher at hand when using
the genset. Refer to NFPA No. 10 for further information regarding fire
extinguishers.
Do not use evaporative starting fluids. They are highly explosive.
Do not store items such as excess oil, oil rags, or tools within the genset
compartment. Items stored within the genset compartment are a fire hazard and
can restrict cooling air.
Before
operating the
genset
Know how to start, operate, and stop the genset before starting it.
Obtain the proper training for operating the genset. Do not allow untrained
personnel to operate or service the genset.
Check the fuel lines and the fuel tank for leaks and cracks before starting the
engine.
Clean the genset of any spilled fuel.
DANGER
Carbon monoxide. Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO). This is a poison you cannot
see or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But
even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
WARNING
Electrocution hazard. Generators present special hazards during operation and
