Note:
The pipe inlets contain filters. These
should be periodically removed and cleaned in
order to maintain the performance of the
shower. See section
‘cleaning’
on how to access
the filters.
IMPORTANT:
The inlets contain check valves,
so before completing the connection of the
water supplies to the shower flush out the
pipework to remove all swarf and system
debris that may cause damage to internal
parts. This can be achieved by connecting a
hose to the pipework and turning on the
water supplies long enough to clear the
debris to waste.
IMPORTANT:
Two factory fitted blanking
plugs are fitted to the top pipe inlets. These
should be left in position if bottom pipe entry
is required.
For top or rear pipe entry, the two plugs
MUST be removed and refitted into the
bottom pipe inlets. Failure to fit the blanking
plugs will result in the unit working
erratically.
Insert the pipe removal tool supplied between
the flange of the plug and the grey collet and
lever the plug outward
(fig.13)
. Whilst holding
back on the collet, pull out each plug by hand.
When refitting the plugs in the bottom pipe
inlets, make sure they are pushed fully home.
Note:
The unit is supplied with a splash guard
(fig.14)
to prevent water ingress when top
entry pipework is used. If fitting top entry
pipework, make sure the splash guard is
correctly fitted
(fig.14)
before replacing the
cover.
