MASONRY INSTALLATION
In a masonry fireplace use a slurry of sand and cement to level the base as required.
WARNING
1. Modify the enclosure:
Ensure the enclosure meets the requirements set out on page 10.
2. Gas and electrical connections:
Prepare gas and electrical connections, refer page 11-12
3. Take the masonry adapter frame and colinear flue adapter off the engine
The adapter frame and flue adapter come assembled on the engine and need to be taken off.
(i)
Lift and remove the inner frame.
(ii)
Remove the two screws holding the outer frame to the fire—lift and remove.
(iii) Disconnect the CAT5 cable from the ON/OFF button.
(iv) Remove the screws holding the fire to the adapter frame and slide the engine out of the box
(v)
Remove the four screws holding the flue adapter to the adapter frame and set aside.
4. Install the masonry adapter frame into the enclosure
Fit the adapter frame into the enclosure, base must be flat and level, and the notch in the back panel to be in line
with the centre of the cavity. Fix in place through two holes in the back panel.
5. Connect flexi to flue terminal and drop flexi flues down the chimney
Stretch out the flexi to the required length and attach to the flue terminal using the clamps provided. Fix flue
terminal in place, allow enough flue in the cavity to fix the flue adapter.
6. Connect flexi flues to the colinear flue adapter
Place the flue adapter in the cavity, it can be on the floor while attaching the flues. Attach the air intake flue over
the spigot, place the flue clamp over the flue and tighten. DO NOT overtighten as this will crush and damage the
flue. Drill through the pre-punched holes either side of the clamp, and into the flexi flue spigot. Secure using the
stainless steel self tapping screws provided, ensuring connection will stop movement or dislodgement of the flue.
Slide the exhaust flue into the spigot and push down until it is clipped in place
7. Secure flue adapter to the adapter frame
Lift adapter box into place and rest in support tags in the back panel. Fit to the back panel using four screws
through the air inlet ports.
8. Check engine seals and determine flue length
Ensure the rubber seals fitted to the back of the fire are in place. Also determine flue length and aeration plate
configuration, refer page 23.
9. Slide engine into the cavity
Slide fire into the cavity until the front flange of the fire is sitting flush against the flanges of the support panels.
When properly aligned the red exhaust seal goes straight into the hole, and the four holes of the adapter frame and
engine line up. Fix the fire to the adapter frame (four screws) and use the outer slots to fix the fire to the enclosure.
Once the fire has been screwed to the adapter frame, the front face of the frame and the front flange of the fire
should be pulled up hard against each other. There are witness holes in the front flange of the fire to ensure this
happens, refer image on page 24.
It is critical to ensure that the air and flue seals are correctly compressed. If there is a gap there may not be a
proper seal and performance could be affected.
10. Complete gas connection
11. Install the burn media and commission
Install the burn media, refer page 25. Refit the glass and the inner and outer frames. If using an infill panel, refer
separate instructions.
