Recommend 2 persons lift appliance to position into place. Fit bracket
securely onto wall before lifting appliance into position. Obtain firm
grip on front and sides of appliance, lift upwards, ensure stable bal-
ance achieved and lift upwards to position in place on bracket. Ensure
safe lifting techniques are used – keep back straight – bend using
legs - when lifting load from floor level. Do not twist – reposition feet
instead. Keep boiler as close as possible to body throughout lift to
minimise strain on back. Ensure co-ordinated movements to ensure
equal spread of weight of load. Always use assistance if required.

and sides/base of boiler. Ensure co-ordinated movements during 2
person lifts to ensure equal spread of weight of load. Ensure safe lifting
techniques are used – keep back straight – bend using legs - when lift-
