Abstract
A heater for heavy construction equipment is provided by three basic components: a hood mounted over the outer end of the normal vehicle radiator for receiving the cooling air blown through the radiator and directing it in the reverse direction towards the operator; a distribution hood having manually controlled and indexible distribution flaps on its discharge and a manually controlled and indexed shutoff valve on its intake for receiving heated air and distributing it to the operator's head, body and feet, selectively, with one of the flaps being transparent so as to permit viewing through it of the instrument panel; and a flexible conduit extending between the hood outlet and the distribution housing inlet, and overlying the vehicle engine.
