INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FITTING THE OPTIONAL BASE ASSEMBLY
BAY 5 & 5GT
1. With the firebox removed, roll the outer convection casing onto its
back and fasten the assembly into position using four M6x20 screws
and nuts. Insert the screws through the holes in the underside of the
casing from the inside and fit the nuts onto the outside of the base.
Do not fully tighten the screws at this stage.
2. Attach the lower fireplace trim into position onto the base frame.
This part replaces the lower trim piece (002/MR113). Use two
M8x10 screws and finger tighten them to allow adjustment.
3. Undo the foot adjustment screws on the base assembly so that
they are just below the lower level of the base frame. Stand the
whole assembly up onto the base and trial fit into the fireplace
opening. Adjust the feet to overcome any rocking, should the
fireplace floor be uneven.
4. Trial fit the side trim pieces (002/XR112 or 002/MR112) and
adjust the lower fireplace trim position to obtain a good fit. Once
everything is aligned, tighten all fasteners.

PRE LIGHTING CHECK
Before initial lighting check the following points:
1. The bottom grate bars must all be fitted and should move freely
and easily when the riddling mechanism is operated.
2. The plates round the sides and back of the grate must be in
position and sitting correctly.
3. The throat plate must be fitted in the roof of the appliance (as
shown in Fig. 8).
4. Check that the front fence is fitted correctly and that the door
closes properly.
COMMISSIONING
On completion of the installation allow a suitable period of time for
the fire cement and mortar to dry out before commissioning the fire.
Before lighting, first check that there is an updraft in the chimney -
open the door of the stove and hold a lit match at the top of the door
opening. If the flame is pulled into the stove this indicates that there is
an updraft and the fire may be lit. If the flame is pushed out from the
stove then this indicates that a downdraft is present, the flue will need
to be warmed to produce an updraft and then checked using the
same procedure with the lit match. The flue may be warmed by
lighting a single sheet of newspaper, or a firelighter, within the stove
before attempting to light a proper fire. Sometimes it may be
necessary to open a window to give an initial draw.
A spillage test must be carried out to confirm safe operation with
doors and windows closed and any extract fans in operation (i.e.
Convection Casing
worst conditions) Warm the appliance and flue before carrying out
the spillage test. Light a smoke match from the middle of a bed of
embers, hold the match approximately 20mm above the ember bed
and ensure that the smoke is carried up the flue and emitted safely.
Also check all joints and seals. On sucessful completion of the spillage
test please leave the operating instructions and tools with the
customer and advise them on the use of the appliance. If the spillage
test fails the cause must be found and rectified, or the appliance
decommissioned and the customer instructed not to use the
appliance untill it can be shown to operate safely.

Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or
part of the district of the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an
offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace
or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area.
It is also an offence to acquire an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a
smoke control area unless it is used in an "exempt" appliance
("exempted" from the controls which generally apply in the smoke
control area).
