It is recommended that the burner height, where possible, should

be approximately 4 ft. from the floor. This will give the best viewing

position. When selecting the height, ensure that the clearance to the

ceiling is 3" minimum, as specified on Page 6.

After selecting the final mounting position of the appliance, taking into

account the site requirements as specified in Section 9.0 of these

instructions, the integrity of the wall, and the feasibility of the proposed

supply pipe routing, the firebox of the appliance may be secured to the

wall.

Due to the weight of the front surround assembly, it is possible to fasten

the outer casing to the wall in up to nine positions, depending on the

strength/condition of the wall. If in doubt always use extra fixings!

Use a bubble level to ensure that the outer casing is level at all times

during installation.

Insert the screws into two of the upper holes, leaving 3/16" protruding

from the wall. Temporarily hang the outer casing on the wall, and mark

any additional fixing points as required. If the appliance is to be fitted

to a lightly colored wall, it is advantageous to paint this wall area with

black or dark paint in the vicinity of the lower rectangular slots on the

outer casing. This will mask the wall when viewed from the front of the

appliance. Ensure paint is fully dry before mounting the appliance. Use

the outer casing as a template to mark this area on the wall. Remove

the outer casing from the wall and drill holes for the additional fixing

points as required. Insert either wall plugs or cavity screw fixings as

required. Re-position the outer casing on the wall and using a bubble

level to check the casing is square and level, tighten all of the fixing

screws fully.

Now, with the outer casing fixed to the wall, the main firebox can be

secured in position. The firebox is held on the outer casing using four

studs and two normal nuts (upper fixings) and two wing nuts (lower

fixings). Make sure that the upper nuts are unscrewed approximately

one turn from the fully tightened position in order to create a 1/16" gap

as shown in Figure 4. The firebox may now be hung onto the top studs,

and then pushed onto the lower studs so that the lower studs protrude

through the lower fixing holes in the back panel of the firebox.

Next, re-fit the grill, the indicator bracket and the control knob and

spindle, and secure in position using the correct fixing screws (re-fitting

is the opposite of removal as detailed in these instructions).

13.0 FITTING THE SURROUND ASSEMBLY

Due to the weight of the frame assembly, it is recommended to seek

assistance for this operation.

The frame assembly will be supported by keyhole slots by four M6

screws which protrude from the front of the outer casing (see Figure 5)

. Ensure each screw is unscrewed approximately one turn from the fully

screwed in position in order to create a 1/16" gap (shown). Hang the

surround assembly onto the outer casing, starting with the two bottom

fixings, ensuring that the corresponding keyhole shaped holes engage

the screw heads fully.
