2. SAFETY AND UNPACKING

Installer

Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please read the

following guide to manual handling.

The approximate lifting weight (kg) of this appliance is as below:

Model Heat Engine Firefront Combined Weight

Dream 11.28 13.35 24.63

Petrus 11.28 11.63 22.91

One person should be sufficient to lift the fire. If for any reason this weight is

considered too heavy then obtain assistance.

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 fire.

Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.

Always keep the fire as close to the body as possible. This will minimise the

cantilever action.

Use gloves to provide additional grip.

Always use assistance if required.

This product uses fuel effect pieces and a burner compartment wall containing

Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.

Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and

respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important 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 fire before and after working on the

fire. 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. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and

may be disposed at a landfill licensed to accept such 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 asbestos or asbestos related products.

3.1 General information.

Under no circumstances is this fire to be converted to LPG. An LPG conversion kit

does not exist for this gas fire.

The appliance information label is located on a ‘swing out’ plate at the base of the

fire. On fires that are already installed this can be seen by removing the bottom front

cover of the fascia.

3.2 Efficiency.

The efficiency of this appliance has been measured as specified in BS 7977 - 1 and

the result is as below:

Model Efficiency % (Gross) Efficiency % (Net)

963 80 89

The gross calorific value of the fuel has been used for this efficiency calculation. The

test data from which it has been calculated has been certified by BSI (0086). The

efficiency value may be used in the UK Government's Standard Assessment

Procedure (SAP) for energy rating of dwellings.

The conversion of net efficiency to gross was achieved by multiplying the net

efficiency by the following conversion factor from Table E3 of SAP 2005, rounding

down to the nearest whole number.

3.3 NOx

The 'Weighted' result for this appliance equates to NOx Class II.
