4.3 Fitting the boiler hanging bracket
Reposition the wall template over the flue hole
ensuring the template is vertical and mark the position
of the fixing holes for the hanging bracket, see fig 4.3.
Mark and drill the fixing holes and secure the hanging
bracket. Fix the hanging bracket to the wall using
the screws supplied. Ensure the uppermost set of
screw positions are used (it may be necessary to use
additional or alternative fixings to ensure adequate
support).
Note!
If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber framed
building ensure that the bracket is secured to a
substantial part of the timber frame capable of
taking the weight of the boiler.
4.3.1 Boiler fixing
Lift the boiler into position in the following manner:
Lean the top of the boiler slightly to the wall and
position just above the hanging bracket. Allow the
boiler to slowly move downwards until engaged in the
hanging bracket.
4.3.2 Removing the front casing
Remove the front casing securing screws then lift the
case upwards off the two top retaining dowels, see fig
4.4.
Note!
Take care not to damage the front casing.
