k)
Thread a tensioning screw over each of the cables and ensure that the
tensioning nut is screwed fully up against the hexagon shoulder of the
tensioning screw (this provides maximum travel for the tensioning nut).
l)
Fit a screwed nipple on to each of the cables and pull hand tight up
against the tensioning screw, then secure each nipple with a flat
bladed screwdriver. See fig. 14 below
Fig. 14
m)
Evenly tighten the tensioning nuts to tension both cables and pull the
fire snugly against the wall. Do not overtighten, it is only necessary to
pull the seal up against the sealing face of the wall, it does not need to
be compressed. Check that there are no gaps behind the seal.
n)
With the fire securely in place, if a concealed gas connection has been
made through either of the access holes in the sides of the fire, the
holes should be closed around the pipe to prevent leakage of air
through the gap around the pipe, see page 13 for further details.
o)
Refit the burner. Fit the retaining screw and check that the burner
is correctly locked into position. Refit the fibre base panel, refit the pilot
shield and the glass panel that is held in position by 4 screws and 2
retaining brackets.
p)
Before making the final gas connection, thoroughly purge the gas
supply pipework to remove all foreign matter, otherwise serious
damage may be caused to the gas control valve on the fire
.
