Scorpio 1800 Installation Instructions

Plumbing Manifold 

Tap & Waste Connecction
Connect the taps using the flexible water pipes provided making sure they do not snag when the bath 
is lifted. Trimming of the inner lower & outer upper panels may be required to fit the panels around 
the pipe. The waste is pre-assembled. Connect the flexible pipe to the waste outlet. Fit the manifold to 
the floor and connect as detailed. 

Electrical Connection
The control unit is located in the centre of the underside of 
the bath. A prewired lead is supplied and this should be run to 
the mains supply as per the pre-install connections. The 
handset should be plugged in the control box as per FIG 3.
Ensure the lead retaining clip is refitted once the 
handset has been connected.

Panel Fixing
The bath shell comes complete with the outer upper panels fitted. These should fit outside the inner 
lower panels and should not touch them. Note: if the upper and lower panels touch, marking will occur. 
Adjustment is possible on the bayonet clip if required.

Inner Panel Fitting
Offer the corner inner end panels (right and left) up to the bath and secure 
using the M4 x 12mm white plastic topped machine screws 
supplied (Fig. a) Screw through holes in panels and into 
the rivnuts positioned in the frame uprights.

Use the white plastic binding fixings (Fig. b) to secue the inner panels together. 
There will be one half of the screw assembly already bonded in each hole. Use
a quantity of 2 to connect the right corner inner panel to the left corner inner panel.
Use a quantity of 2 to connect the inner centre panel to the right and left corner 
panels either side. 

Sliding Panels

The Bath will be delivered with the sliding bracket metal-work
assembled (Fig. c)

This assembly will be fixed to the bath using 2
M8 Hex bolts through the slots and into the threaded 
holes in the bath support bars.

It is important that the plate is square to the support 
bars as it is crucial that the sliding brackets are 
parallel to the sliding panel. If not the 
panel will not rise and 
fall as intended.
