GAS SUPPLY
1. The gas installation should be in accordance with
relevant standards. In GB this is BS 6891. In IE this is
I.S. 813 " Domestic Gas Installations". The gas supply is
provided from the service tap on the boiler unit. A supply
pipe is provided with the fire. This pipe has one flared end
for connection to the fire and a plain end which is
connected to the service tap by a nut and olive.
2. Dependent upon the position of the boiler relevant to
the surround or wall finish face, it may be necessary to
shorten the supply pipe. IF THE PIPE HAS TO BE
SHORTENED CARE MUST BE TAKEN. The length of the
supply pipe is determined as follows:
(a) Measure the distance 'D' from the centre of the front
positioning 'V' mark on the boiler tray, back to the
surround face or finished wall face (Fig.3).
(b) FROM THE PLAIN END of the supply pipe cut off a
length of pipe equal to the distance 'D' measured
above. Take care to ensure that the cut is square and
the pipe is free from burrs and swarf.
ALTERNATIVELY
(c) The amount of pipe required to be cut off can be
determined by holding the PLAIN END of the pipe
against the surround or finished wall face, marking the
pipe at the position of the centre of the front positioning
'V' mark on the boiler tray.
3. After threading the steel flare nut on the above pipe,
connect the plain end to the service tap with the remaining
nut and olive. It is important to ensure that the flared end
of the pipe:
(a) Faces to the right.
(b) Is parallel with the hearth or floor.
4. It is necessary to unscrew and remove the extension
plate from the boiler controls heat shield. Once removed
this item can be discarded (Fig.4).
Fitting the Fire
HEARTH FIXING
1. Fit the fire backing plate to the fire using the M5 x 8mm
thread forming screws provided (Fig.5).
2. Locate the fire spigot into the draught diverter on the
boiler. Push the fire backwards until the backing plate
touches the surround or finished wall face. Adjust the feet
to level the fire (Fig.6).
3. Mark the position of the most suitable pair of securing
holes in the fire backing plate (Fig.5) and remove the fire.
Drill and plug the wall with suitable plugs. Replace the fire
and secure to the wall with suitable fixing screws.
4. Connect the supply pipe to the fire inlet connection.
WALL FIXING
1. Slide the fire support plate over the overhanging boiler
base (Fig.4). Using the screws provided, loosely attach
the plate using the slots at each side.
2. On electronic control boilers it will be necessary to
remove the input plug from the controls. Push the support
plate backwards until it touches the wall surface and
tighten the screws to lock the frame in position. Locate the
fire spigot into the draught diverter on the boiler. Push the
fire backwards until the backing plate touches the finished
wall face. Adjust the feet to level the fire (Fig.6).
3. Mark the position of the most suitable pair of securing
holes in the fire backing plate (Fig.5) and remove the fire.
Drill and plug the wall with suitable plugs. Replace the fire
and secure to the wall with suitable fixing screws.
4. Connect the gas supply pipe to the fire inlet connection.
