9.2 Method 2 - Cable Retention
1. Make sure that the relevant
areas at the fireplace back are
sound enough to take the
eyebolts. If these areas have
deteriorated due to prolonged
use they should be made
sound with a suitable cement.
2. Drill four holes in the rear
wall of the fireplace for the
eyebolt plugs. The holes
should be drilled within the
range of positions shown in
Figure 19. Eyebolt Positions
figure 19 using a no.12
masonry drill. The holes
should be equidistant each side of the centre line
of the fireplace to ensure that the appliance
finishes centrally in the opening when tension is
applied to the cables.
3. Insert a fibre plug into each hole. Use the
fibre plugs supplied with this appliance - Never
use plastic plugs instead of the fibre plugs
supplied. Screw the eyebolts into the plugs.
Make sure that the bolts are secure.

4. Place the convector box unit close to the
fireplace but allow sufficient access into the
fireplace opening so that the cables can be threaded through
the eyebolts and returned through the back of the convector
box. If a concealed connection is being used, insert the
convector box into the fireplace feeding the supply pipe
through the pierced hole in the rear seal.
5. The convection box has two holes at each side of the
convected air opening. Insert one end of each cable (one
cable each side) from the back through the lower of the two
holes and return the end through the upper of the holes. See
figure 20. Give the cables a pull so that they grip against
the convection box flanges.

6. Thread the cables through the upper eyebolts in the rear
wall and then through the lower eyebolts. Return the cables through the holes near the
bottom of the convection box back panel and through the "V" shaped brackets near the
