using four screws provided. The fire is
supplied with a spigot restrictor which is
intended for use where the flue draught is
excessive. The restrictor must not be fitted
to a flue with an effective height less than
4m or where a precast flue is used. Where
the restrictor is required, fit it, at this stage,
between the flue spigot and the back of the
fire. There may, however, be certain
exceptional circumstances where fitting
the restrictor causes the fire to fail the
spillage test (see section 5.3.4). In such
cases the restrictor will have to be
removed.
If the fire is fitted to a recessed fireplace,

an extension flue spigot up to a maximum
total length of 125mm may be used. The
extension must be a tight fit over the flue
spigot and be secured by two self tapping
screws. Note the minimum clearance
required as shown in figure 2 .
