1. SAFETY
Installer
Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please
read the following guide to manual handling.
• The lifting weight of this appliance is 53.5 kg.
• This stove is heavy. We therefore recommend that two people
should be sufficient to lift the stove. If fitting or moving the appliance
alone we recommend the use of suitable lifting apparatus.
• When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not
your back.
• Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.
• Avoid upper body/top heavy bending. Do not lean forward or
sideways whilst handling the stove.
• Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers
for support.
• Always keep the stove as close to the body as possible. This will
minimise the cantilever action.
• Use gloves to provide additional grip.
• Always use assistance if required.
2. APPLIANCE DATA
This product uses fuel effect pieces, burner compartment walls and gaskets
containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous
silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary
irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Consequently, it makes sense to
take care when handling these articles to ensure that the release of dust is
kept to a minimum. To ensure that the release of fibres from these RCF articles
is kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing we recommend that
you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any dust and soot accumulated in
and around the stove before and after working on the stove. When replacing
these articles we recommend that the replaced items are not broken up, but
are sealed within a heavy duty polythene bag, clearly labelled as RCF waste.
This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a
tipping site licensed for the disposal of industrial waste. Protective clothing
is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you follow
the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area
and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from as-
bestos or asbestos related products.
