Gas Supply Connection; Preparing Appliance For Installation - Valor 961 Installation And Owner's Manual

A nut and olive are provided for an 8mm pipe inlet connection to the 'T' connector at
the bottom front of the appliance. The 'T' connector can be rotated to allow a
connection from any direction and includes a valve for isolating the gas supply and a
pressure test point.
The supply pipe must be rigid material. Flexible pipe must not be used.
Concealed Supply Pipe Connection
If a concealed connection from inside the fireplace is required then, before the
appliance is fitted into the fireplace it will be necessary to extend the supply line so
that it will project through the hole in the back of the convection box and run to the 'T'
connector at the front. The pipe run from the supply line up to the rear opening in the
convection box must be kept away from the area which will be taken by the
convection box when it is installed (See figure 7).
Note that the centre of the appliance inlet 'T' connector is 25mm above the fireplace
floor. The inlet 'T' connector should be fitted to the supply pipe at this stage.

9. PREPARING APPLIANCE FOR INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT
Before continuing with the installation of this gas fire the aeration setting on the
burner must be checked. The aeration is factory set and should not require
adjustment. See section 17.1 (Servicing and parts replacement).
1. Unscrew and remove the knurled screw
connecting the slider control arm to the burner
module. Lift the slider control knob, moving the
control arm away from the burner module.
2. Unscrew and remove the six screws that secure
the window mounting frame and window assembly.
Remove and place away from the work area. (See
figure 10).
3. Detach the burner unit from the convection box by
removing two screws (See figure 11). Lift the burner
unit clear.
4. Fit the two "U" section seals to the bottom edges
of the convection box side flanges (See figure 12).
