6.5
Fit the flue unit tubes firmly over the spigots at the rear of the fire.
Make sure that
the seam on the flue tube is not at the bottom
. Push on until the outer tube touches the
screw heads on the outer spigot.
6.6
If it is felt of benefit, the flue unit may be additionally secured to the fire with one
or two suitable self tapping screws (we suggest No.6) before installing into the wall as
follows: -
6.6.1
Using a suitable metal cutting drill bit, drill through the outer flue tube and outer
spigot at a distance of between 6mm & 7mm from the cut end of the outer flue tube - See
figure 11.
6.6.2
Fit the self-tapping screw(s) in
the drilled hole(s).
6.7
Seal the flue unit all round the
circumference of the fire spigot with
the tape supplied.
6.8
Insert the plugs into the wall
fixing holes. Insert the top right
fixing screw leaving the plain shank
proud to allow the top-fixing
keyhole in the fire back to go over
the screw.
6.9
Offer the fire complete with
flue unit through the wall and hook
the top right keyhole slot over the
previously fitted wall screw.
6.10
Insert the top left and two
bottom fixing screws and tighten.
6.11
Seal the outer flue tube to the
outside surface of the wall with
fireclay or cement.
Make sure that
the slots in the flue terminal are
not closer than 8mm to the wall
and are not obstructed by cement.
