through the back of the hotbox. If a concealed
connection is being used, insert the hotbox into
the fireplace feeding the supply pipe through
the pierced hole in the rear grommet.
5.
The hotbox has two holes at each side of the
spillage plate. 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 17).
Give the cables a pull so that they grip against
the hotbox flanges.
6.
Thread the cables through the eyebolts.
Return the cables through the holes near the
bottom of the hotbox back panel (See figure 18)
(For
precast or clay block flue systems return the cables
through the slotted holes in the side of the hotbox)
.
7.
Place the hotbox fully back into the fireplace opening
so that it is sealed against the fireplace front surround.
8.
Drill a hole into the fireplace floor through each of
the two holes in the base of the hotbox using a no.12
masonry drill (See figure 19).
9.
Insert a fibre plug into each hole. Use the fibre plugs
supplied with this appliance -
Never use plastic plugs
instead of the fibre plugs supplied
.
Fit a
woodscrew in each plug and tighten.
Always screw the base into position before
applying tension to the cables. This will ensure a
tight seal between the top of the hotbox and wall
10.
Fit a cable retainer over the bottom end of each
cable.
11.
Pull each cable taut. Push the cable retainers
hard up against the back panel. The end of the
cable adjuster will pass into the hole. 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
20).
