Common questions
What equipment does it fit?
It is a DEVELON part. To confirm it fits your machine, match part number 440207-00328B against your parts manual or the heater currently installed on the engine.
How is it used?
Plug it in before operating the machine so the block and coolant have time to warm up before you start the engine.
What are signs the block heater needs replacing?
If the engine is still hard to start in cold weather after being plugged in, or the block stays cold with the heater connected, the heating element may have failed and the heater should be checked or replaced.
