FITTING THE SHOWER TO THE WALL
NOTE: The control knobs are an integral part of
the cover – do not attempt to remove them.
Important:
The unit must be mounted on a flat
surface which covers the full width and length of
the backplate. It is important that the wall surface
is flat otherwise difficulty may be encountered
when fitting the cover and subsequent operation
of the unit may be impaired.
Unscrew the two top and one bottom retaining
screws
(fig.6)
and lift the cover from the
backplate.
Entry positions for the mains water and electric
cable are from the top, bottom, either side or
from the back. NOTE: Deviations from the
designated entry points will invalidate product
approvals.
If a bottom entry has been chosen, fit the
appropriate cut-out in the top of the backplate
(fig.7)
.
If a top entry has been chosen, fit the appropriate
cut-out in the bottom of the cover
(fig.8)
.
If a side entry is required, the cover will have to be
cut out. Carefully remove the appropriate area by
using a knife or junior hacksaw
(fig.9)
.
If installing a feed pipe from the back or bottom,
the centre of the inlet valve to the wall surface is
20mm
(fig.10)
.
NOTE: If entry is from the back, the nut of the
compression fitting will be partially behind the
surface of the wall
(fig.10)
. This area MUST be
left clear when plastering over the pipework in
order to make the nut accessible for future
adjustments.
After choosing the site for the shower, use the
backplate as a template and mark the two fixing
holes
(fig.11)
. Drill and plug to suit the fixing
screws supplied.
(The wallplugs provided are suitable for most brick
walls – use an appropriate masonry drill, but if the
wall is plasterboard or a soft building block, you
must use special wallplugs and an appropriate drill
obtainable from most hardware stores).
Screw the bottom fixing screw into position
leaving the base of the screw head protruding
6mm (0.25in) out from the wall.
