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 figure 12 below
Fig. 12
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.
o)
Refit the burner. Fit the four retaining screws and check that the burner
is correctly locked into position. On slide control models refit the control
cable. To do this, firstly locate the nipple on one end of the cable into
recess in operating arm and then secure the front part of the operating
arm back onto the rear of the operating arm with the retained screw.
