Insert the shield tube into the wall from the outside
wall. Push the tube firmly in so that it locates fully
over the dished diameter of the inside wall plate.
Trim the tube if necessary (see figure 9). The
outside end of the tube can be temporarily held in
place by inserting wedges of cardboard, wood, etc.
round the wall hole to prevent tilting.

GAS SUPPLY INSTALLATION

8.1
Route the gas supply line to the appliance inlet
connection point (see figure 2).
Note: Pressure testing the line for leaks may need to
be performed before the line is connected to the
appliance - see section 12.
8.2
Gas connection to the appliance is 3/8"NPT.
8.3
Use only new black iron or steel pipes or copper
tubing if acceptable - check local codes. Note that in
USA copper tubing must be internally tinned for
protection against sulfur compounds.
8.4
Unions in gas lines should be of ground joint type.
8.5
The gas supply line must be sized and installed to
provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the
maximum demand of the appliance without undue
loss of pressure.
8.6
Sealants used must be resistant to the action of all
gas constituents including LP gas. Sealants should
be applied lightly to male threads to ensure excess
sealant does not enter gas lines.
8.7
The supply line should include a manual shut-off
valve to allow the appliance to be disconnected for
servicing.
8.8
A plugged 1/8"NPT tapping must be installed in the
line. The tapping must be accessible for test gauge
connection and be immediately upstream of the gas
supply connection to the appliance.

BASE & MAIN APPLIANCE INSTALLATION

PEDESTAL BASE

9.1.1
Detach the pedestal front panel by removing two
screws.
9.1.2
Place the pedestal in position (see figure 10). The
bottom rear of the pedestal must be at least ½" from
the back wall to allow room for the stove top
overhang.
9.1.3
Mark the floor with the floor fixing positions through
the holes in the pedestal (see figure 10).
9.1.4
Remove the pedestal. Drill the floor at the marked
positions and fit plugs if necessary.
9.1.5
For easier fixing, fit the two woodscrews supplied
into the floor partially leaving a space between the
screw heads and the floor. The pedestal has two
"keyhole" openings in its bottom channels. Place
the pedestal back in position by dropping it to locate
the screws in the wide holes of the keyholes and
then sliding the pedestal back to locate the screws
in the narrow slots of the keyholes. Tighten the
screws.
9.1.6
Fit the inlet elbow to the supply pipe.
Note: If the optional circulating fan kit is intended to be
installed, it will be easiest to fit it at this stage
9.1.7
Place the main appliance unit over the pedestal,
align the 4 fixing holes (2 at each side) and secure
the unit to the pedestal with 4 machine screws.
