Fitting the Fire
HEARTH FIXING
Ensure that the space between the flue liner and the
chimney has been sealed, as described in the flues
section of the Boiler Instruction.
The backing plate that will be used to secure the fire
to the wall is already fastened to the fire in readiness
for marking out the screw fixing holes. It is located at
the top back position of the fire unit.
The following procedure is to be followed when
fitting the fire.
Locate the fire flue spigot into the boiler canopy and
whilst ensuring that the down-draught diverter on the
fire unit passes over the controls heat shield, push the
fire backwards until the backing plate touches the
surround or wall surface.
Level the fire by adjusting the front feet (check using a
spirit level).
Mark the positions of two suitable fixing holes in
the backing plate.
NOTE: Where possible the
top corner fixing hole positions should be
used, otherwise space the fixing holes as far
apart as possible.
Withdraw the fire unit and remove the
backing plate from the chassis by
unscrewing the two screws holding it in
position. Take note of its orientation and
retain the screws.
Drill the fixing holes in the surround or wall
face to accept the wall plugs provided.
Fix the backing plate onto the wall using the
screws provided.
Relocate the fire and push up against the backing
plate. The fire is secured to the backing plate using
the screws previously removed.
The lamp box, which is clipped at the top and hinged
at the bottom is rotated forward to expose the boiler
controls. Use the handles provided.
Connect the supply pipe to the fire inlet connection
and tighten the flared joint.
