Connecng the Appliance to the Gas Supply
In all installa"on condi"ons the gas connec"on should be provided using 8mm (O/D) copper tubing.
No soldered joints
should
be used with the firebox of the appliance. The blind grommet which is supplied in the standard fiKng pack should be used to
close up the knock out hole—simply cut a small cross with a sharp knife in the centre of the grommet—this will then seal
around the gas pipe to provide a "ght seal.
Under no circumstances
should this gas entry hole be
le= open
and
unsealed
as
this can result in
flame reversal
and can cause
damage
to the appliance.
Should this occur the warranty to this appliance will
be rendered void.
Before connec"ng the gas supply to the appliance a gas soundness test should be performed to ensure that the exis"ng pipe
work in the property is sound.
Ensure that the gas line has been purged to prevent dust or debris from entering the appliance.
The burner tray can now be reinstalled into the firebox using the eight screws — see page 21
The gas connec"on should be made to the appliance using the 8mm restrictor isola"on valve supplied with the appliance.
This restrictor elbow is supplied loose and should be fi?ed as per the label on the instruc"on packet.
