Safety And Unpacking - Baxi 940 Installer And Owner Manual

Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please read the
following guide to manual handling.
The lifting weight of the heat engine and convection box is 11.5kg.
One person should be sufficient to lift the heat engine and convection box. If for
any reason this weight is considered too heavy then obtain assistance.
When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back.
Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.
Avoid upper body/top heavy bending. Do not lean forward or sideways whilst
handling the heat engine.
Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.
Always keep the heat engine and convection box as close to the body as possible.
This will minimise the cantilever action.
Use gloves to provide additional grip.
Always use assistance if required.
This product uses fuel effect pieces and burner compartment walls containing
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.
Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and
respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important to take care when handling these
articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the
release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation
and servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any
dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before and after working on the
fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that the replaced items are not
broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene bag, clearly labelled as
RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and
may be disposed at a landfill licenced to accept such waste. Protective clothing is
not required when handling these articles, but we recommend the use of suitable
gloves to prevent irritation. We also recommend you follow the normal hygiene
rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and always wash your
hands before eating or drinking.
This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or
asbestos related products.
