GAS SSUPPLY R

ROUTING ((continued)

The gas pipe must be suitably protected where it passes through fireplace openings. Any sleeving should be
sealed to the pipe at its ends. 

This appliance is fitted with an inlet restictor elbow.

The open end of the supply pipe should be sealed temporarily during the installation of the firebox to prevent the
ingress of dirt and dust. 

The appliance firefront is specially notched to allow the gas pipe to pass through when an over hearth supply is
necessary.

FITTING THE FIREBOX

The firebox may be fitted to the opening by using screw fixing or by the cable kit as described in the relevant sec-
tion. It may be easier to fit the decorative fireframe at this stage rather than later if it is a clip-on type. See relevant
section for fitting details. Leave the polythene coating in place until fitting procedures are complete to eliminate
any risk of scratching the decorative finish.

To fit the firebox, firstly check the fire goes fully back into the opening. Secure the fire box by drilling and screw-
ing down the frame or base of the firebox, or use the cable fixing method.

INSTALLATION BBY C

CABLE  FFIXING K

KIT

Drill the four holes for the rawl plugs, as shown in the diagram.
If the fireplace configuration does not allow the exact layout
given, the eyebolts should be positioned as close to the cor-
rect layout as possible.

Before finally fitting cables, ensure the self adhesive sealing
strips are in position on the back of the appliance frame. The
fireframe must be sealed evenly to the fireplace opening all
around the periphery.

Thread the tensioning cables through the holes in the top of
the firebox, then the eyelets, and finally through the lower
holes in the back of the firebox, as shown in the photographs.

Push the appliance back into to fireplace, centralise, and pull the loose
tensioning cables through the holes into the firebox. You may need to
temporarily adjust the outlet deflector at this point as described in the
Fitting the firebox section. 

Thread the tensioner bolts onto the cables, with the nuts screwed down
close to the tensioner head. Slide the screwed nipple onto the cable, pull
cable tight, and tighten nipple.

The tension of the cable may now be adjusted by using a suitable span-
ner on the tensioner nuts to pull the appliance tightly against the fire-
place opening. Visually inspect the seal and reseat if necessary.

as it will be impossible to refit the fire after servicing. Coil up the surplus
cable, and locate at rear of firebox.
