1. SAFETY

Installer

Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please read
the following guide to manual handling:



The lifting weight of this appliance is 16.86 kg.



One person should be sufficient to lift the fire. If for any reason this weight is
considered too heavy then obtain assistance.



When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back.



Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.



Avoid upper body / top heavy bending. Do not lean forward or sideways whilst
handling the fire.



Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.



Always keep the fire as close to the body as possible. This will minimise the
cantilever action.



Use gloves to provide additional grip.



Always use assistance if required.

3. APPLIANCE DATA

This product uses a fuel effect and gaskets containing Refractory Ceramic
Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure
to these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Consequently, it is important to take care when handling these articles to
ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the release
of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and
servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any
dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before and after working on
the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that the replaced items
are not broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene bag, clearly
labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive
hazardous waste and may be disposed at a landfill licensed to accept such
waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we
recommend you follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or
drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or
drinking.This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from
asbestos or asbestos related products.
