Never use plastic plugs instead of the fibre
plugs supplied

Screw the eyebolts into the

plugs. Make sure that the bolts are secure.

4. 

Place the convector box unit close to the

fireplace but allow sufficient access into the
fireplace opening so that the cables can be
threaded through the eyebolts and returned
through the back of the convector box. If a
concealed connection is being used, insert the
convector box into the fireplace feeding the
supply pipe through the pierced hole in the rear
grommet.

5. 

The convection box has two holes at each side of the

convected air opening. Insert one end of each cable (one
cable each side) from the back through the lower of the
two holes and return the end through the upper of the
holes. See figure 15. Give the cables a pull so that they
grip against the convection box flanges.

6.

Thread the cables through the upper eyebolts in the

rear wall and then through the lower eyebolts. Return
the cables through the holes near the bottom of the
convection box back panel and through the "V" shaped
brackets near the bottom front sides of the convection
box. See figure 16.

7. 

Place the convection box fully back

into the fireplace opening so that it is
sealed against the fireplace front
surround.

8.

Fit a cable retainer over the bottom

end of each cable.

9.

Pull each cable taut. Push the cable

retainers hard up against the "V"
brackets.  Tighten the screws in the
retainers so that they clamp the cables
in position. Apply tension to the cables
by turning the hexagonal adjusters by hand. See figure 17.
