Page 17 Place the appliance on top of the plinth and secure it to the plinth. Use the supplied 4x M8x50 Hex bolts and 4x M8 x 32 washers to bolt through the plinth to the appliance. *Note: Before placing the fire on the plinth, pre-drill 3x 3.3mm dia flue fixing holes on both the fireplace Ø150mm and Ø200mm spigots.

Cut the bottom shroud from the non-crimped end to be above by 100mm from the roof line. Be aware of the roof pitch when cutting the bottom shroud. If required, a cutting template for the flue can be provided showing common roof pitches.
Page 32 Place the bottom shroud around the flue system, on the Ø250 spiders. Position the bottom shroud below the top end of the Ø250mm flue liner by 160mm, as mentioned in Step 2. Drill through the legs of the Ø250 spiders and secure the bottom shroud to these spider legs using 4x SS rivets.
Page 33 Assemble the cone pipe assembly to the 150mm diameter flue pipe. Assemble the cowl to the 150mm diameter flue pipe. Drill through and rivet through the cone pipe, cowl and flue pipe using a minimum of 3x SS rivets. *Note: Ensure a good mechanical seal between the cowl and cone. This is necessary to keep rain out of the flue system.
Page 34 Flue Restraints: The flue above the roof must be restrained as per AS/NZS 2918:2001 Section 4.10 - Fixing Flue Flashing: The rubber flashing, flashing plate and other flashing material used must comply with the relevant building code/ local building regulations. Silicone flashing is the recommended flashing material for both the Classic flue kit and with the Designer Shroud accessory.
