7.0 APPLIANCE DISASSEMBLY
GB IE
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THE APPLIANCE TO
THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT THIS TIME.
Removing the decorative facia:
The Appliance is supplied with a
decorative facia fitted. This must be removed before the appliance
can be wall mounted :
First, remove the retaining thumbscrews (one on each side of the
appliance). Simply lift the frame upwards.
Refitting is the reverse of removal. Ensure the cut-outs in the bottom
of the frame support brackets engage the support pins on each side
of the appliance.
Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsi-
bility for injuries and damages that may occur due to
improper installation or handling. The appliance should
not be installed until all wet plastering and/or dry wall
sanding and wall painting has been completed. Do not
block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The wall
onto which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install
only on a vertical surface. Avoid sloped surfaces.
Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall
may result in fire, damage or injury.
Marking Positions:
Having selected the final mounting position for the appliance, taking into account
the site requirements as detailed above, the fire can now be fixed to the wall. The fire is held to the
wall using an upper mounting bracket. The upper mounting bracket is held to the wall by three screws.
When the upper mounting bracket is fixed to the wall the fire can be temporarily hung from it and
then the single lower fixing position marked. The lower fixing secures the fire to the wall and prevents
the fire from being accidentally
knocked off the upper mount-
ing bracket. To fix the upper
mounting bracket to the wall,
using a spirit level, mark three
holes, spaced horizontally to
the dimensions shown in figure
2. These three fixing positions
are located 70mm down from
the top edge of the decorative
front facia when the fire is fully
installed and assembled.
Wall Fixings:
If the appliance
is to be mounted on the inner
leaf of a conventional cavity
wall or a solid wall, drill three
holes to a depth of 42mm
using a 8mm masonry bit. Insert the wall-plugs provided. If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or timber framed
construction, then special cavity screw fixings will be required, that are not supplied with this product (see figure 3). Insert 3 x
40mm long fixing screws through the corresponding holes in the upper mounting bracket and into the upper three wall-plugs and
tighten fully ensuring the bracket is horizontal and level. Now remove the six screws as shown in figure 4 and remove the lower
panel. Temporarily hang the appliance onto the upper upper mounting bracket and using a pencil, mark through onto the wall the
lower fixing hole in the centre of the appliance back panel. Remove the appliance from the upper fixing bracket and repeat the
procedure for drilling the wall. Fix the appliance to the wall ensuring one fixing screw is now holding the appliance to the wall via
this lower fixing position. Tighten fully. Replace the lower panel and replace the six screws shown in figure 4.
Peel off any remaining protective plastic coatings on the decorative frame, backpanel and any other surfaces.
Unpack the pebbles and arrange them over the fuel bed. The final pebble arrangement can only be done later when the appliance
lamps are switched on. For the best visual effect, do not push the pebbles up against the back panel, leave a gap of approximate-
ly 40mm between the back panel and the pebbles. This allows light to shine up through the cut outs and illuminate the back panel.
