Reducing the fixed flue length
Refer to figure 12
▶ Mark the length required from the inside face of the seal [1] on the
terminal end, down the length of the terminal section ( minimum
100mm).
▶ The flue has a centralising spacer to support the inner tube. Move this
spacer into the flue past the section to be cut to support the flue
during cutting.
▶ Cut square, taking care not to damage the tubes, remove the
unwanted sections [2], chamfer the edge of the inner aluminium tube
and remove any burrs from both tube sections.

It is possible to convert the horizontal fixed flue kit to a high level
horizontal flue system, there are a few considerations to be taken into
account.
▶ Removal of the flue elbow.
0010031932-001
▶ Discard the flue elbow.
▶ Fit a high level horizontal flue adaptor (part no. 7 719 002 432) to
the appliance flue outlet.
▶ A 90° elbow (part no. 7 716 191 084) can be fitted directly into the
high level horizontal flue adaptor or use an extension between the
high level horizontal flue adaptor and the 90° elbow.
Once the wall template has been fixed to the wall, the new position for
the flue outlet must be measured to correctly mark and drill the hole for
the flue exit. When installing with the high level horizontal flue adaptor
the flue is 68mm taller than the standard horizontal fixed flue option.
▶ For the new centre line for the 60/100mm flue, on the appliance wall
mounting template:
– Measure above from the existing 60/100mm centre 68mm.
– Mark the new centre line [1] for the 60/100mm flue exit.
– Drill hole a 150mm in diameter using a core drill or similar.
