Locate the heater in the fireplace opening, then from the front of the heater, gently
pull the tension wire on the right hand side to gather up the excess until the heater is
secure. Thread the wire through the remaining small hole to lock the wire and heater
in place (See point 4 - figure 6).
Method C - Securing with the Spacer Frame supplied with the heater.
The spacer frame is for use in installations where the chimney recess or rebate in the
surround / mantle is not deep enough to take
the full depth of the heater. The minimum rebate
/ depth required is 71mm.
For your safety the frame and heater must be
securely fixed to the rear wall.
The rear of the spacer has two screw location
slots in the top flange. These should be to the
rear when fitting.
1.
Position the spacer frame against the wall.
Ensure that the spacer frame is central to the
fireplace.
2.
The top rear flange of the spacer frame has
two screw locations. Mark the positions of the
two screw locations on the rear wall (See
figure 7).
3.
Remove the spacer frame from the fireplace
and place away from the work area.
4.
Drill the locations using a suitably sized
masonry drill bit for the wall plugs supplied.
5.
Insert two wall plugs provided into the holes.
6.
Insert a wood screw into each hole (See
figure 3) and screw in until there is
approximately 6mm of screw protruding from
the wall.
7
. Secure the spacer frame to the heater using
four No.8 x 3/8 screws supplied (See figures 8
and 3).
8.
Carefully lift the heater and locate the slots
on the rear of the spacer frame onto the
screws in the wall. The screws can be adjusted
to ensure a tight fit. When mounting to
decorative surfaces such as wallpaper care
should be taken not to drag the heater down the wall as this may damage the
decorative surface.
