10.2 Method 2 - Cable retention and floor fixing.
1.
Make sure that the relevant areas
at the fireplace back or floor are
sound enough to take the eyebolts
and screws. If these areas have
deteriorated due to prolonged use
they should be made sound with
suitable cement.
2.
Drill four holes in the rear wall of
the fireplace for the fibre / wooden
plugs. The holes should be drilled
within the range of positions shown
in figure 17 using a suitably sized
masonry drill for the fibre / wooden
plugs supplied. The holes should be
equidistant each side of the centre
line of the fireplace to ensure that the
appliance finishes centrally in the
opening when tension is applied to
the cables.
3.
Insert a fibre / wooden plug into
each hole. Use the fibre / wooden
plugs supplied with this appliance -
Never use plastic plugs instead of
the fibre / wooden plugs supplied
.
Screw the eyebolts into the plugs.
Make sure that the bolts are secure.
4.
Place the hotbox unit close to the fireplace
but allow sufficient access into the fireplace
opening so that the cables can be threaded
through the eyebolts and returned through the
back of the hotbox. If a concealed connection is
being used, insert the hotbox into the fireplace
feeding the supply pipe through the pierced
hole in the rear grommet.
5.
The hotbox has two holes at each side of the
spillage plate. Insert one end of each cable
(one cable each side) from the back through the lower of the two holes and return the
end through the upper of the holes (See figure 18). Give the cables a pull so that they
grip against the hotbox flanges.
6.
Thread the cables through the eyebolts. Return the cables through the holes near
the bottom of the hotbox back panel (See figure 19)
(For precast or clay block flue
systems return the cables through the slotted holes in the side of the hotbox)
