GAS SUPPLY PIPE
A nut and olive is provided for the copper pipe inlet
connection.
We would recommend that an isolation tap is fitted
upstream of the appliance to facilitate easier
connection and disconnection.
NOTE: The supply pipe must be of rigid durable
material. Flexible pipe MUST NOT be used.

APPLIANCE INSTALLATION
6.1 The appliance base plate should be fitted into
position first. To do this remove the two
screws from the base of the control panel
beneath the control knob. Then disconnect the
compression nut on the top of the isolation
elbow (see Figure 4). The burner assembly
can now be lifted off the base plate leaving
behind the base plate and the isolation elbow.
Place the burner assembly carefully to one
side using the packaging to protect any
surface from damage.

6.2
Place the base plate into the fireplace
opening with the isolation elbow to the
front. The rear of the base plate should
touch the rear of the fireplace opening.
Ensure that it is in the centre of the
opening and mark the required screw
positions. Note: The base plate has a
number of holes in it for screw fixing. It is
not necessary to use all of the holes, just
the ones that are convenient.
6.3
Once the base plate has been securely
fixed, the gas supply can be connected to
the isolation elbow. Gas connection is by
concealed connection only.
Remember to
protect the end of the supply pipe when
passing through walls, cavities etc, to
stop brick dust and debris entering the
pipe and causing a blockage.
6.4
HAVE YOU PURGED THE GAS
SUPPLY PIPES?
This is essential to
expel any foreign matter that might be
blown into the valve assembly, injector, or
pilot etc. and cause a blockage.
6.4
Once the gas supply has been connected
and purged then the burner assembly can
be refitted in the reverse order to removal
ensuring that the tabs on the rear of the
base plate fit into the slots on the
underside of the burner assembly.
6.5
CHECK FOR GAS SOUNDNESS
Turn on the gas supply and check for gas
soundness with a suitable leak detection fluid (see
BS 6891).
Please check all joints including the pilot
assembly.
6.6
FUEL BED ASSEMBLY
Please refer to the User’s section for details
on assembling the fuel effect components
(Page 6).

FUNCTIONAL CHECKS
Remove the pressure test point sealing screw
from the isolation elbow and attach a suitable
pressure gauge.
Light the pilot and check the correct operation
of the burner at all the flame settings. Refer to
the Operating instructions on pages 4 and 5.
Check that the inlet gas pressure is as stated
on page 6 when the fire is at its highest
setting.
Once the fire has been lit for 5 minutes turn
the gas OFF at the isolating elbow. After a
further 3 minutes turn the gas supply ON
again, if the gas has stopped flowing, the
Flame Supervision Device (FSD) is operating
correctly. Always check that the gas has
stopped flowing even if you hear the FSD
valve close within the 3-minute period.
Turn OFF the appliance and the gas supply
and refit the pressure test point sealing screw.
Turn ON the gas supply and check for leaks
around the pressure test point sealing screw
with a suitable leak detection fluid.
