FITTING THE SHOWER TO THE WALL

Fitting the shower to the wall
WARNING!
Check there are no hidden cables or
pipes before drilling holes for wall
W-005-A
plugs. Use great care when using power
tools near water. The use of a residual
current device (RCD) is recommended.
note: The control knob is an integral part of the
cover – DO NOT attempt to remove it.
Lift the cover from the backplate. To access the
pipe and cable connections lift off the trimplate
(fig.).
Entry positions for the mains water are from the
bottom, rear or side. Cable entry is via the top
or rear.
note: Deviations from the designated entry
points will invalidate product approvals.
If bottom or side surface entry is required for the
mains cold water, then the necessary opening
will need to be cut out in the trimplate (fig.).
If surface cable entry from the top is required
then a small area will need to be cut out in the
backplate (fig.9).
If installing a feed pipe from the rear, bottom
or side the centre of the inlet valve to the wall
surface is 21 mm (fig.0).
note: If entry is from the rear, the nut of the
compression fitting will be partially behind the
surface of the wall (fig.0). This area MuST
be left clear when plastering over the pipework
in order to make the nut accessible for future
adjustments.
ImporTAnT: Always seal around the
incoming pipework to prevent water entering
the wall.
After choosing the site for the shower, use the
backplate as a template and mark the three
fixing holes (fig.).
Drill and plug to suit the fixing screws supplied.
(The wall plugs provided are suitable for most
brick walls – use an appropriate masonry drill, but
if the wall is plasterboard or a soft building block,
you must use suitable wall plugs and a suitable
drill bit.)
