5.6.3 Check the flue pull with closure plate fitted by applying a lighted match or
smoke match to the flue spigot opening in the closure plate and observe the smoke. If
there is a definite flow continue with the installation. If not check the fitting of the
closure plate. The fireplace flue pull check described in section 5.5 should have
confirmed that the fireplace itself is satisfactory.
6.1 Using the extension brackets.
Supplied with the fire are four extension brackets and four fixing screws. The
extension brackets are for use where the wall fixing holes in the gas fire are located
adjacent to areas that are not substantial enough to
enable an adequate fixing point (i.e. where the fixing
holes in the gas fire are located adjacent to areas that
are made of plaster that has no brick underneath or
where the fixing holes fall adjacent to the side of a
metal flue).
6.1.1 Fitting the lower extension brackets.
(See figure 10).
Remove the two securing screws from the rear of the
brace brackets, locate the extension bracket as in
figure 1 and refit the screws removed previously.
6.1.2 Fitting the upper extension brackets.
(See figure 11).
Fit the upper extension brackets to the left and right
hand sides of the flanges at the rear of the gas fire.
6.2 Installing to a hearth.
1. Place the fire centrally on the hearth making
sure that the spigot lines up with the spigot hole
in the closure plate. Gently slide the appliance
into place being careful not to scratch the
hearth. The spigot must enter the closure plate
to a depth of at least 38mm.
2. Level the fire by loosening the lock nuts and
turning the levelling screws in the feet up or
down as required while they bear on the hearth.
When the fire is level and square to the wall,
retighten the lock nuts.
