GAS CONNECTION

RUN GAS SUPPLY
•
For pipe sizing, refer to your local gas installation codes.
Copper supply should be run leaving the end of the pipe in a
suitable position to be able to attach to the stainless steel flexi- tube
and the 1/2" BSP male union provided.
(refer diagram)
PURGE SUPPLY OF AIR AND SWARF.
All foreign materials such as filings must be purged from the gas
supply, as they may cause the gas valve to malfunction.
SLIDE HEATER INTO FIREPLACE
•
Slide the heater carefully into position, while feeding the stainless
steel flexi-tube through the supply access opening at right hand rear.
NOTE: A spring-loaded flue protector plate is fitted to
prevent the entry of foreign objects for a masonry
chimney installation.
The plate will fold down as the heater slides through the
fireplace opening.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the flue protector plate is not
restricted and returns to its normal position when the heater
is installed.
If the fire has to be removed, the plate will pivot
backwards to allow the heater to slide clear.
When a flue liner or Zero Clearance Box is used,
the flue protector plate must be unscrewed and removed.
Secure the heater to the fireplace. There are pre-drilled holes in the
heater surround behind the doors. Drill additional holes if the
existing ones are not in suitable positions.
Refer to Page 9 for removal and replacement of logset.
Remove the front and middle burners by undoing the left hand end
screws, sliding the burners to the left, and lifting out.
Slide out and remove the bottom louvre rods which are
held in place by tension.
Carefully remove the screws from both ends of the front panel.
Remove the top and bottom screws from the centre louvre rod
retaining bracket.
Slide out the fan partition tray exposing the gas control and
flare connection.
Bend the flexi-tube and connect to the gas control valve.
Check for gas leaks.
Replace and refit all parts that have been removed in reverse order.
On completion of all work, check all connections for gas leaks.
