cranetruck will become famous soon enough

These images from the 1965 -10 manual may help answer some questions.
There is very little chance of getting exhaust fumes mixed with the hot air, the systems are well separated.
The "emergency" shut down switch shown in one image is only used in case of chemical/nuclear attach when the air is contaminated. Power is shut off to the fan. Normal shut-down takes 2 to 3 minutes as the heater runs to purge itself of fuel....
One fuel pump is used with shut-off cocks so that only one heater is served at a time. The engine heater is operated first to warm the engine and then shut down. The fuel shut-off valves are next set to run the personnel heater. It only takes seconds to heat the cab with this unit.
