HANDLING
When lifting the unit work with someone of similar build and height if possible.
Choose one person to call the signals.
Lift from the hips at the same time, then raise the unit to the desired level.
Move smoothly in unison.
Larger units may require a team lift.
A specific manual handling assessment is shown in Appendix C
at the rear of this manual.
INSTALLATION
Preparation/placing The Appliance In
Position.
The appliance is supplied shrink wrapped on
a timber installation base with the F&E cistern
on top of the unit. Carrying handles are also
provided in the back of the casing.
The appliance should be handled carefully to
avoid damage and the recommended method
is shown above.
Note: Although the above guidance is provided
any manual handling/lifting operations will
need to comply with the requirements of the
Manual Handling Operations Regulations issued
by the H.S.E.
The appliance can be moved using a sack truck
on the rear face although care should be taken
and the route should be even.
In apartment buildings containing a number
of storeys we would recommend that the
appliances are moved vertically in a mechanical
lift.
If it is proposed to use a crane expert advice
should be obtained regarding the need for
slings, lifting beams etc.
Before installation the site requirements should
be checked and confirmed as acceptable.
The plastic cover and protective wrapping
should be removed from the appliance and the
installation base (provided) placed in position.
The appliance can then be lifted into position in
the cupboard on top of the base and the front
panel removed by unscrewing the 2 screws and
lifting the door up and out, ready for connection
of the pipework and electrical supplies.
The feed and expansion cistern support shall
be installed ensuring that the base is fully
supported, the working head of the appliance
is not exceeded and the recommended access
is provided for maintenance - see the Technical
Data section of this manual for details.
