10. HOTBOX INSTALLATION
10.1 Cable retention and floor fixing.
1. Make sure that the relevant areas
at the fireplace back or floor are
sound enough to take the eyebolts
and screws. If these areas have
deteriorated due to prolonged use
they should be made sound with
suitable cement.
2. Drill four holes in the rear wall of
the fireplace for the fibre plugs. The
holes should be drilled within the
range of positions shown in figure 19
using a suitably sized masonry drill
bit. The holes should be equidistant
each side of the centre line of the
fireplace to ensure that the appliance
finishes centrally in the opening when
tension is applied to the cables.
3. Insert a fibre plug into each hole.
Use the fibre plugs supplied with this
appliance - Never use plastic plugs
instead of the fibre plugs supplied.
Screw the eyebolts into the plugs.
Make sure that the bolts are secure.
4. Place the hotbox unit close to the
fireplace but allow sufficient access into the fireplace opening so that the cables can
be threaded through the eyebolts and returned through the back of the hotbox. If a
concealed connection is being used, insert the hotbox into the fireplace feeding the
supply pipe through the pierced hole in the rear
grommet.
5. The hotbox has two holes at each side of the
spillage plate. Insert one end of each cable (one
cable each side) from the back through the lower
of the two holes and return the end through the
upper of the holes (See figure 20). Give the
cables a pull so that they grip against the hotbox
flanges.
